A force to be reckoned with
October 1st 2008 The new AC powered Aisle-Master takes articulated truck performance to a new level
Irish specialist manufacturer Aisle-Master
Ltd has long been acknowledged as the
pioneer of LPG technology in articulated
forklifts, and is once more leading the way
with the introduction of AC power into its
range of electric models.
"This technology has been thoroughly
tried and tested at customers' premises
over the last couple of years, with
extremely positive feedback, " says
company MD Gerry McHugh. "We are way
past the prototype stage and are now
fitting AC as standard on all our electric
models."
The AC truck naturally shares all the
space-saving and versatile qualities of its
predecessor and the company's LPG model
range, with some of the main benefits of
AC summed up as follows:
Enhanced performance levels
Increased pallet movements for greater
productivity
Improved acceleration and gradability
Fewer wearable parts resulting in low
maintenance and reduced downtime
Reduced energy consumption
Aisle-Masters can work in aisles of just
1.75m, with capacities of up to 2.5 tonnes
and lift heights of up to 12.5 metres. The
3rd party logistics, DIY, manufacturing,
pharmaceutical and food and beverage
industries are just some of the sectors
enjoying the benefits of the Aisle-Master
range. All Aisle-Masters are designed and
built at the company's dedicated production
facility in Monaghan, Ireland, ensuring a top
quality and extremely reliable product. Aisle-
Master design engineers also offer a site visit
and warehouse layout service and supply
free layout proposals illustrating how to
maximise the use of available storage space. More articles from Aisle-Master Ltd: |
