Yale Materials Handling Corp., Greenville, N.C.,launched the YaleERP080-100VM electric-powered lift truck series. Thissit-down, electric-powered, pneumatic tire lift truck series is available in 8,000-, 9,000-and 10,000-pound models, and offers an environmentally-friendly option for industries that have historically been powered by internal combustion engines (ICE).
To attain maximum uptime, the ERP080-100VM comes with a standard 80-volt control system and extended shift feature that permits balanced battery run time and truck productivity. The new platform utilizes AC transistor control technology that allows precise load handling with less noise, while the AC motors eliminate brushes completely—along with brush service and maintenance.
