Power partnership
October 1st 2011 Sainsbury's and Toyota
Material Handling UK are
working together to trial
alternative Lithium Ion
battery technology. The two
companies, will be testing
the new battery technology
in one of Sainsbury's largest
distribution centres in the
UK from the end of
September.
The trial, part of an
initiative by Toyota Material
Handling Europe, will
include a range of
warehouse equipment
integral to distribution
centre operations including
heavy-duty powered pallet
trucks and horizontal order
pickers. These trucks are
often required to work
multiple shifts meaning
battery efficiency and
battery charging are at the
forefront of operational
planning. More articles from Toyota Material Handling (UK) Ltd: |
