Nissan End Control Forklifts El Paso

Even if sales volumes have usually been small, about 1% to 5% of the worldwide forklift market; side-loaders have become the dominant choice of machine in the material handling industry for dealing with unusual cargo in a simple way.



Usually, side-loaders are utilized in the aluminum, timber, glass, steel, construction and aviation industries. Moreover, they are used in industries which are making unconventional things like windmill arms and moldings. Practically any business that makes oversized long or awkward things utilizes the side-loaders.



In the beginning of the 1950's, Henry Le Grande Lull from the Lull Manufacturing Company initially designed the sideloader lift truck. These early models were requested from the United States Air Force. The original concept was patented for commercial use but it was not made until Lull Manufacturing was taken over by the Baker Raulang Company in the year 1959. It was Baker Raulang who produced the design. Later, the name was changed to Baker Traveloader. In the latter part of the 1950s, the side-loaders were launched in Europe. The early models were made by Italian manufacturer Fiora and the afterwards B-P Battioni e Pagani who pioneered the machine's use in timber yards.



Side-loaders vary a little from counterbalance, forward-traveling forklifts in that they have their forks situated on the side of the equipment. The operator drives the machine sitting in a cabin like a conventional lift truck. The unloading, lifting and loading functions are performed by the mast situated at the driver's right-hand side. The cargo is usually transported lying on a wooden or metal deck. This helps to decrease distortion, stress and damage to the cargo. New innovations to the side-loader design have integrated a large range of lifting accessories being developed.



The use of side-loaders instead of the reach-stackers or standard forklifts: safer operating conditions, improved visibility, and faster traveling speeds as well as the ability to utilize available space more effectively.
