Forklifts and material handling
0 available offers
Reliable forklifts, pallet jacks, and material handling equipment for load operations.
Material handling and internal transport equipment are machines designed to move, lift, and stack load units inside logistics and production facilities. They range from simple manual hand pallet trucks to advanced mechanical forklifts and autonomous guided vehicles.
All categories
Decision Guidance / Selection Criteria
- Maximum load weight (nominal capacity and residual capacity at maximum lift height) and load dimensions
- Drive type (lead-acid electric, lithium-ion, LPG/Diesel internal combustion, manual hydraulic)
- Environmental conditions (indoor use, outdoor use, cold storage/freezer, explosion-proof EX zones)
- Required working aisle based on forklift turning radius and transported pallet length
- Work intensity (number of shifts, need for fast battery exchange or opportunity charging)
- Surface type and wheels (polyurethane wheels for smooth floors, solid resilient or pneumatic wheels for uneven terrain)
- Occupational safety requirements and additional equipment (fork cameras, proximity radars, blue spot, speed limiters)
- Compatibility with existing infrastructure (clearance height of doorways, parameters of loading docks and ramps)
- Warranty service availability, response times (SLA), and access to original spare parts
- Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), including energy consumption, charging cycles, and mandatory safety inspections

Clear filtersFrequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
When is it recommended to replace lead-acid batteries with lithium-ion (Li-Ion) technology?
Li-Ion technology is highly recommended for intensive, multi-shift operations. It allows opportunity charging (e.g. during 15-minute breaks), requires no dedicated charging rooms (no gas emissions), and needs zero maintenance. In contrast, lead-acid batteries require 8 hours of charging and 8 hours of cooling.
What is the difference between a Reach Truck and a standard counterbalance forklift?
A Reach Truck has a mast that extends forward, allowing it to retrieve pallets in narrow working aisles (often under 2.9 m). Traditional counterbalance forklifts require wider aisles (3.5 - 4.0 m) but are more versatile for outdoor operations, trailer loading, and uneven terrain.
What safety equipment is recommended for forklifts operating in shared pedestrian zones?
Recommended equipment includes optical warnings (e.g. blue spot / red zone lights projected on the floor), acoustic reverse alarms, speed limiting systems, and active pedestrian detection radars that automatically slow down the vehicle.
Forklift truck
A powered industrial vehicle equipped with a mast and forks to lift, transport, and stack palletized loads.
Internal transport
The movement of raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods within a single industrial or warehouse facility.
