Narrow aisle truck

From wikiMHEDA

Jump to: navigation, search

A narrow aisle truck (NA truck) is a lift truck that permits right angle stacking in aisles narrower than those normally required by counterbalanced trucks.[1] Narrow aisle trucks operate in aisles of 8' to 10' and are generally stand up vehicles such as reach trucks, turret trucks or order pickers.[2]

Applications

One of the applications for narrow aisle forklifts is grocery distribution for higher density storage and higher throughput.[3]
