Types of Forklifts
Forklifts are used inside warehouse and construction environments to carry and transport heavy loads. They are commonly found in other manufacturing and material handling industries. There are various kinds of forklifts used for different kinds of applications.
The main difference between forklifts is the way they are powered. Some are electric powered and several utilize internal combustion motors. For carrying loads that are heavy whilst maintaining low operating expenses, the best choice are usually electric forklifts. Electric forklifts are commonly found in indoor work environments. For outdoor uses, internal combustion forklifts are usually 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 driver. Manual drive forklifts are manually powered.
Several forklifts are counterbalanced in order to prevent tipping over. Other safety factors include turntables or handrails. Specialty forklifts are available for particular applications. For example, narrow aisle forklifts are designed to work in very tight spaces. Rough-terrain forklifts are very effective on surfaces which are uneven and rocky.
