The most active areas of any warehouse are the shipping and receiving locations. As the docks are very congested, trucks are engineered to be maneuverable, compact and have great visibility. Operators of lift trucks who are working on a dock have to be able to step on and off of their truck, during their entire shift. To be able to answer all of your horizontal transporting dock needs, Yale features the MPE model.
Green Initiatives: In order to be compatible with new technology, Yale has engineered their lift trucks with the latest kinds of alternative power technologies. Some of the alternative power technologies include clean diesels, electric batteries and liquid propane gas or LPG.
Upholding their tradition, Yale was amongst the first to utilize working fuel cells in actual applications. The company has supported the adoption of greener technologies through extensive internal testing, analysis and field validation. They work closely developing innovative collaborations with different engineers in order to come up with the best product available.
To be able to increase overall efficiency, reduce energy consumption and lessen toxic material content, Yale continues to investigate more efficient and advanced battery chemistries and newer technologies. The company strives to remain committed to these initiatives and this belief system is reinforced through their participation in developing industry standards in order to carefully adopt these greener technologies in a dependable manner.
Recyclability is another huge consideration for the company in its lift truck design. Yale actively selects materials used in their machinery taking in account recyclability from the beginning of the design stage. This is amongst the numerous ways Yale tries to stay ahead of the competition and ensure their machine makes less of a footprint compared to other forklifts in the field. By staying on top of the newest technological developments and trying to help the environment at the same time, they have secured themselves one of the leaders in the material handling business.
