 UniCarriers has added Mast Tilt Control |
UniCarriers adds new stability system
Thame, United KingdomUniCarriers has added a new feature to the reach trucks in its ergonomic U-TERGO series with Mast Tilt Control (MTC). This control system for stabilising the mast now forms part of the standard equipment for all high lifting models featuring mast tilt. The function is optionally available for reach trucks with lower lift heights and can also be retrofitted in existing vehicles.
With MTC, the mast stabilises 80% faster, thus allowing stocking and retrieving at higher speeds when reach trucks work at great heights. Users achieve shorter cycle times and greater convenience for goods handling, the company claims.
"The market is always on the lookout for materials handling solutions which provide the swiftest possible movement of goods," explains Jan Callderyd, group product planning manager at UniCarriers Europe. "Our reach trucks help users to achieve maximum throughput and low total operating costs. Mast Tilt Control is a key element in accomplishing this."
