Electric reach trucks: the ultimate warehouse companion for 3 reasons

Electric reach trucks are vital pieces of equipment that can effectively perform a variety of tasks within a warehouse setting. With their narrow design and impressive height capabilities, these machines are invaluable when it comes to handling materials.

Explore three important advantages of electric reach trucks and discover the variety of electric reach trucks offered by Ronli.

Electric reach trucks: the ultimate warehouse companion for 3 reasons.

1. Electric reach trucks are sustainable

Electric reach trucks use lithium-ion (Li-Ion) battery technology, resulting in zero emissions. Choosing this environmentally friendly option greatly decreases your carbon footprint. Additionally, Li-Ion batteries are 30% more efficient and have a lifespan three to four times longer than other types of batteries.

As the ban on petrol and diesel engines becomes effective in 2030, companies are turning to electric-powered vehicles, resulting in an 8% annual growth in the market. This transition to electric not only benefits the environment but also promotes a healthier work environment for warehouse operators.

Electric reach trucks offer many benefits, including eliminating exhaust fumes and toxic gases. This eliminates the need for warehouse ventilation, resulting in lower heating and cooling costs. In addition, these trucks require minimal maintenance and operate with high efficiency, ultimately lowering overall operating costs and ensuring maximum uptime.

2. Electric reach trucks enhance productivity

Ronli's electric reach trucks are designed with ergonomics in mind, promoting maximum comfort and safety for drivers and thus improving efficiency and productivity.

The Ronli electric reach forklifts come equipped with the Dynamic Cornering Control (DCC) system as standard, allowing for a high drive speed to be maintained. It also has the capability to automatically reduce speed when cornering, prioritizing operator safety. This feature is especially valuable in situations where quick response times are necessary to avoid other trucks, warehouse goods, or pedestrians.

Electric reach trucks, as their name implies, are ideal for accessing greater heights and reaching higher shelves in warehouses. With most warehouses utilizing vertical space, these trucks are designed to easily and efficiently navigate high-racking systems, enhancing productivity for operators.

These electric reach trucks are designed to effortlessly navigate through the narrow aisles of a warehouse. Their maneuverability in tight spaces allows for easy access to inventory without occupying a large footprint.

3. Electric reach trucks reduce TCO

The total cost of operation (TCO) is crucial to consider in the realm of material handling. Each decision made impacts your TCO, making it essential to invest in the appropriate equipment to maximize efficiency. Using a professional and objective approach with factual information and domain expertise, we aim to provide a formal, educational, and informative description. Utilizing percentages, facts, and numbers, we avoid subjective language and exclamation points to maintain a professional tone.

Electric reach trucks are specifically designed with narrow bodies to easily maneuver through warehouse aisles, allowing them to reach higher shelving than other forklifts. This increased efficiency in navigation can lead to higher uptime and a lower TCO.

Electric reach trucks produce significantly less noise and toxic fumes compared to internal combustion engine (ICE) trucks when in operation. This creates a more comfortable working environment for warehouse operators and reduces the risk of injuries. Prolonged exposure to loud noises can cause headaches, stress, and fatigue, as well as potential hearing damage.

By minimizing the noise in your warehouse, pedestrians in the surrounding area can better hear critical sounds within the workspace, including alarms, machinery, and colleague communication, which improves work efficiency.

Beyond working conditions, TCO is influenced by the financial aspect of material handling. Although Li-Ion batteries have higher upfront costs, they offer long-term savings. Additionally, their ability to be opportunity charged increases uptime and they have fewer parts compared to ICE forklifts, resulting in lower maintenance and servicing needs. Li-Ion batteries also eliminate the need for a separate charging station as required by lead-acid batteries.

Maximize your productivity while also increasing your ROI for investing in other operational activities.
