Types of Forklifts

Forklifts are utilized to lift and move heavy loads, normally inside warehouses and construction sites. They are commonly found in other manufacturing and material handling industries. There are different types of forklifts designed for different kinds of applications.

The main difference between forklifts is the way they are powered. Several are electric powered and some utilize internal combustion motors. For lifting heavy loads while maintaining minimum operating expenses, the best choice are usually electric forklifts. Electric forklifts are usually found in indoor work environments. Internal combustion forklifts are recommended for outdoor applications.

Kinds of forklifts are motorized drive, manual drive and fork trucks. Fork trucks are motorized and have backup alarms and cabs. Motorized drive forklifts normally have a protected seat for the operator. Manual drive forklifts are powered manually.

Some forklifts are counterbalanced in order to prevent tipping over. Other safety features consist of handrails or turntables. Specialty forklifts are available for particular applications. For instance, narrow aisle forklifts are designed to work in very tight spaces. Rough-terrain forklifts work well on surfaces which are uneven and rocky.
