NEW SIT-ON POWER PALLET TRUCK FROM MITSUBISHI FORKLIFT TRUCKS INCREASES WAREHOUSE SPACE AND OPERATOR SAFETY
Exceptionally safe and cost-effective, the new 2- and 3-tonne PREMiA EX sit-on power pallet models from Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks set new standards for operations in transport, production areas and cross-docking applications.
Traditionally, pedestrian and foldable-platform power pallet trucks are specified for these tasks, but their design requires a wider turning radius/working aisle than that offered by a sit-on model.
The sit-on PREMiA EX has a very compact chassis saving floor space with an AST of just 2.5 m, allowing you to make much more efficient use of valuable warehouse space.
What's more, the design keeps operators completely within the confines of the truck, ensuring they are safely protected by the chassis and optional overhead guard, while pillars also protect against drive-in accidents.
But it doesn't end there. In order to maximise efficiency Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks has introduced a series of game-changing design innovations.
Its Intelligent Cornering System senses the angle of a turn at the very start - rather than in the middle - and automatically optimises speed early for maximum stability and smooth, predictable, precise and safe cornering.
Choosing the 360-degree steering system means allowing your operators to keep the truck in constant motion - saving seconds on every turn of the handling cycle while excellent ground clearance results in easy and safe handling even on ramps and gradients. In highly repetitive operations, every second counts.
An ultra-low step height provides operators with quick and easy on/off access with highly adaptable working positions suiting operators of any height.An ultra-low step height provides operators with quick and easy on/off access with highly adaptable working positions suiting operators of any height.
Smooth, quiet lifting and lowering helps deliver a more ergonomic and focused working environment with fewer distractions for greater productivity while a top speed of 12 km/h with dynamic power steering gets the job done exceptionally fast.
Rapid opportunity charging of the built-in Li-Ion battery allows continuous 24/7 operation, with no requirement for spare change-over batteries and no maintenance. For operator safety, the battery only unlocks when the battery plug is disconnected. Similarly, the battery plug can only be reconnected if the battery is locked in place.
Offering clear space-saving advantages and greater safety than traditional alternatives, the high throughput and faster ROI delivered by the PREMiA EX sit-on power pallet make it a winner in any demanding application.
