WHEN SITTING BEATS STANDING IN THE WAREHOUSE...
Meet the new space-saving AXiA EX sit-on stacker from Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks.
With an aisle width requirement of only 2.5 m, AXiA EX is designed to work in narrower aisles than a traditional platform stacker or small reach truck, and also lifts significantly high up to 7.0 m. It can even outperform a reach truck that may be over-specified for the application.
Its compact dimensions clearly make the AXiA EX sit-on stacker a highly cost-effective option especially when compared to a complex VNA solution or expensive extensions to existing warehouse premises.
A series of innovations unique to Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks make the truck exceptionally safe and intuitive to operate.
The company's widely-acclaimed Intelligent Cornering System senses the angle of a turn at the very start of the manoeuvre and optimises speed for accurate, positive cornering. At the same time, the Stability System (ESS) maximises stability by cutting drive speed when the forks are lifted over 1.7 m and reducing acceleration when the steering angle exceeds 45 degrees.
To boost productivity still further, the Level Assistance System detects the operator's intention and automatically stops when the forks are at precisely the right height. Mast damping ensures soft and seamless transition in the mast stages for low noise and vibrations when lifting and lowering.
Extremely versatile, the AXiA EX sit-on stacker offers excellent ground clearance for safe and easy handling on loading docks and ramps and is available with either pedal or hand-switch direction controls to help operators fulfil their potential.
A choice of batteries will suit all applications. Fitted with a built-in Li-Ion battery for fast opportunity charging, the AXiA EX sit-on stacker delivers 24/7 operation with no maintenance or topping up. Where lead-acid batteries are preferred, an extra battery plug on the outside of the truck allows convenient charging without the need to disconnect the internal battery plug.
But it's in the real-world that the AXiA EX sit-on stacker really excels. Easy maintenance, high performance, long service intervals, and exceptional reliability as well as durability make it a highly attractive option when compared with platform stackers and far more expensive alternatives such as reach trucks or unnecessary building modifications to premises.
