Used Yale Gas Forklifts Berkeley

Narrow Aisle and very Narrow Aisle Trucks: Some forklifts have VNA features or NA features. To be able to operate safely and efficiently, the majority of counterbalanced trucks need at least 11 feet of aisle width. NA trucks however, could operate in narrow aisles which measure 8 to 10 feet wide. Moreover, very narrow aisle or VNA trucks can operate in aisles as narrow as 6 feet wide.

The benefit of using a VNA and NA truck over a conventional lift is that it makes it possible for warehouses to be built with narrower aisles. The wider aisles in the warehouses enable for more storage of products in a particular space, that improves cube utilization. The loads moved using Narrow Aisle and VNA trucks usually are limited to about 3000 and 5000 lbs. Reach trucks are capable of operating in narrow aisle. Order selectors, turret trucks and rotating mast trucks can operate within very narrow or narrow aisles, depending on the specific unit.

Reach Trucks: Reach trucks are especially made narrow-aisle trucks which are designed for storage and retrieval. They are made of outriggers and telescoping forks which enable the operators to lift a load and after that retract it over the outriggers. These models are not suitable for loading and unloading trucks, nor for moving loads quickly over long distances. Like the order selector, reach trucks could be available for lifting heights that are higher than 30 feet.

Rotating-Mast Trucks and Turret Trucks: Rotating-mast trucks are similar to regular sit-down forklifts. The main difference is that their masts are able to rotate in one direction, to a 90 degree angle. This particular feature allows them to operate within a narrow aisle condition. Turret trucks can operate in very narrow or narrow aisle places. Similar to order selectors, these equipment are capable of elevating both the operator and the cargo. Moreover, they could enable the operator to deal with loads on either side of an aisle without re-entering and exiting the aisle.

Turret trucks are often rail or wire guided when used in very narrow aisles. Thus, the operator doesn't need to focus any energy on their driving skills and can focus on the work load at hand. As turret trucks are considered "operator-up" trucks, they can be used for picking cases and items in addition to full pallet handling.
