Chilled out May 1st 2009 Forklift drivers at Nottingham based
frozen food distributors MKG Foods
are said to be more chilled now they
have started using two AC electric
powered Aisle-Master articulated
forklifts in their cold-store.
The Aisle-Masters which have
replaced man-down turret trucks
and are said to be more versatile.
Warehouse manager Wayne Merrin
comments: "They have definitely
made life a lot easier, productivity is
up – we can easily cope with 700
pallet movements per week, and the
whole operation is slicker."
Despite the tight working spaces,
drivers can still exit the trucks when
in the aisles, (not possible
previously) and the Aisle-Masters
can be used outside for loading and
offloading purpose if necessary. More articles from Aisle-Master Ltd: |
