What Is An Electric Reach Truck?

The electric reach truck is a highly flexible and reliable cargo handling tool that can freely shuttle through any aisle in the warehouse or distribution center, even in narrow aisles. It is powerful and equipped with the latest upgraded three-level gantry, with a lifting height of up to 9m. The ergonomic and durable design allows the operator to work comfortably, thus efficiently moving goods from one end to the other.

Is an electric reach truck right for you?

An electric reach truck is an efficient material handling equipment that combines the advantages of a counterbalanced forklift and an electric pallet stacker. It can reach the outside of the fulcrum when the mast is extended to the top, which is equivalent to a counterbalanced forklift; when the mast is fully retracted, the center of gravity of the load falls on the inside of the fulcrum, which is equivalent to an electric pallet stacker.

This design ensures that the reach truck's volume and weight will not increase significantly while ensuring operational flexibility and high load performance. More importantly, the small turning radius allows it to move freely through narrow passages, saving working space to the maximum extent and improving land utilization.

The advantages of electric reach trucks include:

*Flexibility and efficiency: Reach trucks are compact and have a small turning radius, making them easy to operate in a small space and adaptable to a variety of logistics scenarios. At the same time, they have a strong load-bearing capacity and fast operating speed, and can complete the task of handling a large amount of goods in a short time, improving logistics efficiency.

*Safety: Reach truck forklifts are reasonably designed, easy to operate, and equipped with multiple safety protection measures, such as speed limiters, limiters, emergency stop buttons, etc., to ensure safe operation.

*Economical efficiency: Low energy consumption, low maintenance costs, and long service life can save a lot of operating costs for enterprises.

*Environmental benefits: Many modern reach truck forklifts use electric drive, which is more environmentally friendly and quieter than traditional internal combustion engine forklifts, suitable for indoor use, and reduces exhaust emissions and noise pollution.

How to properly maintain the product

The correct maintenance of reach trucks can not only extend the service life of the forklift, but also ensure work efficiency and operation safety. Daily maintenance points include cleaning, checking fluid levels, checking tires, checking the brake system, and checking the electrical system. In-depth maintenance steps include changing the oil and filter, checking the hydraulic system, and checking the battery.

Conclusion

Electric reach trucks play an important role in the logistics industry with their flexibility, efficiency, safety, and economy. Regular maintenance is the key to ensuring their performance and extending their service life. With the continuous advancement of technology, reach trucks will continue to lead the transformation and development of the logistics and warehousing industries
