The most active areas of any warehouse are the receiving and shipping locations. As the docks are very congested, trucks are designed to be compact, maneuverable and have great visibility. Operators of lift trucks who are working on a dock should be able to step on and off of their truck, during their entire shift. To be able to solve all of your horizontal transporting dock requirements, Yale features the MPE unit.
Green Initiatives: In order to be compatible with new technology, Yale has designed their lift trucks with the newest types of alternative power technologies. Some of the alternative power technologies include clean diesels, electric batteries and liquid propane gas or LPG.
Upholding their tradition, Yale was among the first to utilize working fuel cells in actual applications. The company has supported the adoption of greener technologies through field validation, extensive internal testing and analysis. They closely work with different engineers developing innovative collaborations in order to create the best available product.
To be able to increase overall output, lessen energy consumption and lessen toxic material content, Yale continues to investigate more efficient and advanced battery chemistries and newer technologies. The company strives to remain dedicated to these initiatives and this belief system is reinforced through participating in developing industry standards so as to safely adopt these greener technologies in a reliable way.
Recyclability is another important factor for the company in its forklift design. Yale actively chooses materials used in their machinery taking in account recyclability from the start of the design stage. This is one of the numerous ways Yale tries to stay ahead of the competition and make sure that their machinery makes less of a footprint compared to other types of forklifts in the field. By staying on top of the newest technological developments and trying to serve nature at the same time, they have secured themselves among the leaders in the material handling business.
