Of all the material handling machinery available, the forklift is one of the most popular and beneficial machines in a fleet. Since its invention, there has been increased productivity and reduced physical strain as personnel are now able to move the various materials to a different location with ease and speed.

The most common forklifts provided by Kanoo are Counterbalance forklifts, Rough terrain forklifts, Industrial forklifts, Warehouse forklifts, Pallet jack, and more. These forklifts can be powered in an N-number of ways but the two main sources of power are Diesel and Electric.

Diesel forklifts are larger than conventional forklifts and more powerful. These forklifts are usually used outdoors and as their name suggests they are propelled by a diesel engine. They are one of the toughest in the material handling sector. Typical applications of diesel forklifts include loading and unloading goods vehicles, transferring items from one site to another, and so on.

An electric forklift is powered by an electric motor using either rechargeable industrial batteries or other ways like wire, rail, etc. They are cleaner, quieter, and cost lesser than an LP forklift. They have no emissions which add a layer of safety for the personnel and the surroundings. These forklifts are either Lead-Acid powered or Li-Ion powered forklifts.

With technological advancements, forklifts have evolved and modernized to provide modern solutions for modern-day problems. This resulted in the creation of Articulated Forklifts. Articulating forklifts are adaptable to various surface conditions and are suitable to work on any surface, be it soft soils or mine sites, etc. The articulated design offers unbeatable maneuverability, reducing the time taken for each job and reducing the tax on the personnel. Some of the most commonly used articulated forklifts are the globally loved very narrow aisle trucks (VNA), Rough terrain forklifts also known as all terrain forklifts, Counterbalance forklifts, etc.

Apart from choosing the right forklift, it is just as crucial to pick the right forklift attachment as it has a direct effect on the product and personal safety. Choosing the right attachment can reduce product damage, result in safer handling and increase productivity. Some of the most common forklift attachments are Sideshifters, Fork Positioner, Paper clamps, Push/Pull attachment, Multiple pallet handler, Fork extensions, Rotators, and many more.

We at Kanoo offer these and much more in our large collection of material handling equipment. Choose us as your solutions provider today and enjoy the Kanoo experience.

Everything you need to know about forklifts

One of the significant pieces of equipment used in warehouses is the forklift. Often people do not understand the utility of this machine and end up buying the wrong product or doing the work manually. The electric or diesel forklifts in the UAE lift heavy objects and transfer them from one place to another.

The three most crucial functions/operations of a forklift are

  • Lifting capacity: It determines the maximum load it can lift without the forklift attachments in the UAE snapping into pieces or getting an overload warning.
  • Stability: Once the forklift lifts the object, it should maintain peace, and the operator shouldn't have any problem moving it around the warehouse.
  • Load center: As long as the weight threshold is maintained in the electric forklifts in the UAE, the load center or the distance between the forklift and the center of gravity of the load won’t change.
