The most active areas of any warehouse are the shipping and receiving areas. Since the docks are very congested, trucks are designed to be compact, maneuverable and have great visibility. Lift truck operators who are working on a dock have to be able to step on and off of their truck, throughout their entire shift. To be able to answer all of your horizontal transporting dock needs, Yale features the MPE model.
Green Initiatives: In order to be compatible with new technology, Yale has engineered their lift trucks with the newest types of alternative power technologies. Some of the alternative power technologies consist of LPG or liquid propane gas, clean diesel and electric batteries.
Upholding their tradition, Yale was amongst the first to utilize working fuel cells in actual applications. The company has supported the adoption of greener technologies through analysis, field validation and extensive internal testing. They work closely with different engineers developing innovative collaborations in order to create the best product available.
Yale continues to investigate more efficient and advanced battery chemistries and newer technologies to be able to increase overall productivity, lessen 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 dependable way.
Recyclability is another huge consideration for the company in its forklift design. Yale actively selects materials utilized in their machines taking in account recyclability from the start of the design stage. This is amongst the many ways Yale tries to stay ahead of the competition and ensure their machinery makes less of a footprint compared to other types of forklifts in the field. By staying on top of the latest technological developments and trying to serve nature at the same time, they have secured themselves one of the leaders within the material handling business.
