Kinds of Forklifts

Forklifts are utilized to lift and move heavy loads, normally within warehouses and construction sites. They are commonly found in other manufacturing and material handling industries. There are different kinds of forklifts used for various kinds of applications.

The way forklifts are powered is the biggest difference between them. Some are electric powered and several utilize internal combustion motors. For lifting loads which are heavy while maintaining minimum operating expenses, electric forklifts are generally the best choice. Electric forklifts are usually found in indoor work sites. Internal combustion forklifts are recommended for outdoor applications.

A manual drive, fork truck and motorized drive are the three kinds of forklifts. Fork trucks are motorized and have backup alarms and cabs. Motorized drive forklifts typically have a protected seat for the driver. Manual drive forklifts are powered manually.

Several forklifts are counterbalanced to avoid tipping. Other safety factors include handrails or turntables. Specialty forklifts are available for particular applications. For instance, narrow aisle forklifts are designed to work within really tight spaces. Rough-terrain forklifts are very helpful on rocky and uneven surfaces.
