New order picker has more room

UK Cat Lift Truck distributor Briggs Equipment has launched the new Cat low-level order picker that features a spacious driver compartment.

The new NO20NE's design was based on research on how operators use forklifts. The forklift's body was restyled with rounded corner edges, the drive unit was made more compact, and the battery was placed in a new position. These new design features mean the driver has more room and can get on and off the order picker with ease.

Tony Rooney, sales and marketing director at Briggs, says operators have a large influence on the decision-making process when it comes to buying warehouse equipment. "They spend a significant amount of time using the equipment and if they are not comfortable, safe and don't enjoy driving the trucks, this can have a big impact on productivity."

The operator can control the sports-style steering wheel and speed with one hand to give better response time and precision throughout the driving range.

The order picker also features a high-performance AC drive system and keyless PIN Code access to give operators individualised custom settings.
