The most active places of any warehouse are the shipping and receiving areas. Because the docks are very crowded, trucks are engineered to be compact, maneuverable and have great visibility. Operators of lift trucks who are working on a dock must be able to step on and off of their truck, during their whole shift. So as to solve all of your horizontal transporting dock needs, Yale spotlights the MPE model.
Green Initiatives: The lift trucks have been designed with the newest versions of alternative power technologies in recent years so as to be compatible with new technology. Several of the alternative power technologies include clean diesels, electric batteries and LPG or liquid propane gas.
Yale was among the first to use working fuel cells in actual applications, upholding the tradition. The company has supported the adoption of greener technologies through field validation, extensive internal testing and analysis. They work closely developing innovative collaborations with different engineers to be able to create the best available product.
Yale continues to investigate more advanced and efficient battery chemistries and newer technologies in order to increase overall production, reduce energy consumption as well as reducing toxic material content. The company strives to remain dedicated to these initiatives and this belief system is reinforced through their participation in developing industry standards so as to carefully adopt these greener technologies in a dependable manner.
One more huge consideration for the company is recyclability in the Yale design of lift trucks. From the very beginning design stage, Yale actively selects materials used in their equipment with the recyclability factor taken into account. This is among the numerous ways Yale tries to stay ahead of the competition and ensure their equipment makes less of a footprint compared to other kinds of forklifts in the field. By staying on top of the newest technological developments and trying to help the natural environment at the same time, they have secured themselves amongst the leaders in the material handling business.
