Kinds of Forklifts
Forklifts are used in warehouse and construction sites to lift and transport heavy loads. They are usually found in other manufacturing and material handling operations. There are various types of forklifts used for various types of applications.
The main difference between forklifts is the way they are powered. Some use internal combustion motors and several are electrical powered. For carrying heavy loads whilst maintaining minimum operating costs, the best choice are usually electric forklifts. Electric forklifts are most often found in indoor work environments. For outdoor applications, internal combustion forklifts are commonly recommended.
Types of forklifts are manual drive, fork truck and motorized drive. Fork trucks are motorized and have backup alarms and cabs. Motorized drive forklifts typically have a protected seat for the operator. Manual drive forklifts are powered manually.
Several forklifts are counterbalanced in order to prevent tipping over. Other safety features include handrails or turntables. Specialty forklifts are available for specific applications. Like for instance, narrow aisle forklifts are designed to work within very tight spaces. Rough-terrain forklifts work well on surfaces which are rocky and uneven.
