Products for particulars
June 1st 2008 The power steering and
10kmh travel offered by
Hyster's P2.0S platform
pallet truck – used for the
horizontal transport of
goods – is not necessary in
some applications, so Hyster
developed the new P2.0SE
model. The P2.0SE includes
all the main characteristics
of the P2.0S but with
reduced maximum speed
and mechanical steering.
Factors external to
operations have also affected
Hyster's product
development. Increasing land
costs have lead to a trend
towards taller warehouses
creating the need for taller
handling products. "Racking
often reaches heights of 12m
which is why Hyster
developed its Matrix reach
truck to include a stronger
and taller mast capable of
placing heavier goods at
12m," explains Robert
O'Donoughue, Hyster's GM
for warehouse products.
"Our business is about
optimising our customer's
individual operation with
handling solutions that fit
their current and future
business needs." More articles from Hyster Europe: |
