REACH TRUCK

Reach truck is a type of material handling equipment used to lift

materials at least 10 meters height where forklifts and stackers
cannot reach. They are considered a sub-type of forklift, but with an
added advantage of reaching more heights and more
manoeuvrability.

Unlike forklifts, Reach Trucks can handle loads without

counterbalance weights, because of which it has more flexibility in
movement.

Key features of Reach Trucks

• Reach trucks are used for indoor applications. They are not suited
for outdoor applications owing to the ground clearance.
• It is used for large storage density and where fast retrieval is
required.
• Reach trucks are provided with scissor design reach mechanism to
extend the lifting forks on the front, reaching into the racks
 Key Application of reach trucks in various
sectors

Extensively used in indoor applications such as in logistic

and warehousing industries for storage of greater heights. Reach
trucks are suitable for horizontal transportation and stacking, such
as in warehouses, distribution centres and logistics companies
