Used Caterpillar Container Forklift Scottsdale

A container forklift is particularly utilized to load and unload big, heavy freight containers. They are used to transport freight on and off trains, ships and truck beds. Container forklifts are the most durable and biggest types of forklifts manufactured. They have to be extremely maneuverable on uneven terrain and have sufficient power and torque to lift large containers safely. Usually, they have heavy-duty diesel engines and big pneumatic tires.

Like all types of forklifts, a container forklift uses forks in order to raise the containers. Forks should be positioned to ensure the load is secure during transport. Various types of container forklifts are just designed to lift the containers several meters off the ground. Other container handlers utilize another method for carrying containers to greater heights. A container handler makes use of an apparatus affixed to the front of the vehicle to clamp down on either end of the container like jaws. The machinery is counterbalanced with weights to maintain stability.

Carrying and transferring containers is the main purpose of a container forklift. Standard forklifts do not have sufficient reach for working in ports. The forks are rated according to the maximum weight they can handle. The forklift's capabilities should be posted prominently in the cockpit and must never be exceeded.
