Reach truck

The reach truck in intralogistics

Reach trucks are industrial trucks used in logistics that have their own engine. They are usually only used in warehouses, where they are also ideal for operating high racks. This is where they can best show some of their strengths:

  • Operating in high storage locations
  • Operating the racking in compact warehouse structures (narrow aisles)
  • Very flexible for their size

How are reach trucks constructed?

These industrial trucks are optimally equipped and designed for vertical goods storage. They have a push mast in the longitudinal direction, which is equipped with forks. Either the forks or the mast itself can be tilted.

Thanks to its design, pallets stored on the floor can be lifted directly. Goods stored high must first be raised 30-35 centimeters, which allows the forks or mast to be tilted.

As the truck's center of gravity is between the wheels, there is very little risk of tipping over. It is also wider than a pallet, which means that pallets cannot overhang.
