Kaup has introduced the B-series forklift attachments, which will be available worldwide in August.

The T160B and T466B fork positioners, which replace the T160 and T466, have been enhanced to boost the productivity of forklifts.

Using state-of-the-art 3D technology, the fork positioners' components have been designed to meet current requirements, resulting in "high stability, optimised tare weight and low lost load centre", Kaup says.

To lower the risk of accidents, Kaup has optimised visibility with the new attachments by allowing the forklift driver a clear view of the fork tips and the load.

Compared to the previous fork positioners, Kaup says the new attachments require little maintenance and the number of wear-and-tear parts have been reduced. Also, the wear-resistant sliding profiles can be replaced quickly on-site without the use of special tools.
