A WINNER Linde’s K-Truck is a very narrow aisle (VNA) modular combi-truck concept that enables you to enhance your storage capacity in the smallest space. It is designed for high-level pallet load storage and retrieval, as well as for single item picking or mixed applications.

With protection against draughts and noise, the cab offers a comfortable operational environment and allows the operator to work effectively and with minimum fatigue.

The smart electronics of Linde System Control (LSC) continuously monitors the truck’s technical potential in order to deliver optimum simultaneous lift and travel speeds relative to lift height and load weight. The K-Truck has been awarded Red dot design award in 2007, a prestigious and globally recognised seal of quality, for its unique ergonomic design and high performance.

The META CLIP® boltless shelving system augmented by beams, chipboard decks, separators and spigots can often offer the best solutions for this type of storage.

• Shelf loads up to 400 kg udl
• Bay loads up to 2400 kg udl
• Shelf loads adjustable at 25mm centres
• Stepped beams perforated at 200mm centres for locating separators (and to accept flush chipboard decks)
• Galvanised or light grey powder coated finish – RAL 7035

SIDE SLIDE Jungheinrich has launched two new ranges of electric counterbalance trucks. The front trucks of the ranges EFG 213-220 (3-wheel) and 316-320 (4-wheel) feature sideways battery access, electric steering and a new operating concept. The forklifts are able to lift loads up to 2,000 kilogrammes to a lift height of up to 6,500mm. The top speed of the trucks is 17 km/h.

LEVEL TWO Jungheinrich’s EKS 110 is the ideal truck for stock picking between the first and third levels. The platform and load section can be raised up to a height of 3,000mm. This allows for picking up to a height of 4,600mm. The counterbalance design allows a wide range of load storage units to be raised off the ground both longitudinally and crosswise. The load section is optionally available in a walk-on design (with a pallet surround, if required) or with auxiliary lift (without reducing the residual capacity). The auxiliary lift ensures that the picked
goods can be stored at an accessible height

WALKING AROUND The new EJC pedestrian truck of Series 2 from Jungheinrich was designed for demanding task profiles in the warehouse and is available in three lifting capacity classes. Whereas the EJC 212 can lift up to 1,200 kilogrammes, the EJC 214 and the EJC 216 manage 1,400 and 1,600 kilogrammes, respectively. The truck combines high performance with a big residual lifting capacity at lifting heights of up to 5,350mm and long operating times. The Jungheinrich pedestrian truck can at the same time be manoeuvred more safely and more easily thanks to the possibility of also shunting it with the control shaft raised. With an overall width of only 800mm, electric pedestrian trucks are also suitable for operation in very confined spaces.

SAFETY FIRST Linde’s Electric Pallet Trucks with rider platform (T20SP/AP and T24SP/ AP, series 131) feature a complete safety zone operator compartment. The surrounding steel shield forms an efficient protection against rear and side impacts. With the compact design of the truck, all movements remain within the cockpit keeping the operator’s shoulders, arms and hands safe.
