Kinds of Forklifts
Forklifts are used to lift and transport loads that are heavy, normally within warehouses and construction sites. They are commonly found in other manufacturing and material handling industries. There are different types of forklifts utilized for different kinds of applications.
The main difference between forklifts is the way they are powered. Several are electric powered and some use internal combustion motors. For lifting loads which are heavy whilst maintaining low operating expenses, the best choice are generally electric forklifts. Electric forklifts are commonly found in indoor work sites. For outdoor uses, internal combustion forklifts are commonly recommended.
A manual drive, fork truck and motorized drive are the three types of forklifts. Fork trucks are motorized and have backup alarms and cabs. Motorized drive forklifts usually have a protected seat for the operator. Manual drive forklifts are powered manually.
To avoid tipping, some forklifts are counterbalanced. Other safety features include turntables or handrails. Specialty forklifts are available for particular applications. For instance, narrow aisle forklifts are designed to work in extremely tight spaces. Rough-terrain forklifts work well on rocky and uneven surfaces.
