The most active areas of any warehouse are the shipping and receiving locations. Since 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 need to be able to step off and on their truck, during their entire shift. So as to answer all of your horizontal transporting dock needs, Yale features the MPE unit.
Green Initiatives: The lift trucks have been designed with the latest versions of alternative power technologies in recent years in order to be compatible with new technology. Several of the alternative power technologies comprise clean diesels, electric batteries and LPG or liquid propane gas.
Upholding their tradition, Yale was among the first to use working fuel cells in actual applications. The company has supported the adoption of greener technologies through field validation, extensive internal testing and analysis. They work closely developing innovative collaborations with various engineers to be able to come up with the best product available.
Yale continues to investigate more advanced and efficient battery chemistries and newer technologies in order to increase overall output, reduce toxic material content as well as reducing energy consumption. The company strives to remain dedicated to these initiatives and this belief system is reinforced through participating in developing industry standards so as to safely adopt these greener technologies in a reliable way.
Another huge consideration for the company is recyclability in the Yale design of lift trucks. From the very beginning design stage, Yale actively chooses materials utilized in their machines with the recyclability factor taken into consideration. This is amongst the numerous ways Yale tries to stay ahead of the competition and make sure that their machine makes less of a footprint compared to other forklifts in the field. By staying on top of the latest 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.
