Types of Forklifts

Forklifts are utilized in warehouse and construction environments to lift and transport loads that are heavy. They are commonly found in other manufacturing and material handling operations. There are various types of forklifts used for various types of applications.

The main difference between forklifts is the way they are powered. Some are electric powered and some use internal combustion motors. For carrying heavy loads whilst maintaining low operating costs, electric forklifts are usually the best choice. Electric forklifts are most often found in indoor work environments. For outdoor applications, internal combustion forklifts are generally recommended.

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

Several forklifts are counterbalanced to prevent tipping over. Other safety factors consist of handrails or turntables. Specialty forklifts are available for certain applications. For example, narrow aisle forklifts are designed to work in extremely tight spaces. Rough-terrain forklifts are really effective on surfaces that are rocky and uneven.
