Manual Extendable ReachForks offer a highly flexible and efficient solution for material handling in warehouses. In many cases, forklift trucks drive around inside warehouses with standard-length forks on their machines. Distribution centers, in particular, are becoming larger, and the distances covered by forklift trucks are increasing, resulting in higher costs per pallet. With telescopic KOOI® ReachForks, such as manual extension forks, the forklift forks can be easily extended, and the forklift can reach pallets deeper into racks or handle wider loads without needing to reposition or switch forks.
The manual extension forks are always available because they remain mounted at all times and do not have to be removed from a location and mounted like “loose fork extensions.” For the forklift driver, this is a huge improvement because pick-up and mounting take valuable time, and the “sleeves” are heavy. Of course, a heavier forklift must be purchased, which also consumes more energy, but even then, the operational costs of manual extendable forks reduce by approximately ±20%. Why not make your own ROI calculation and be surprised?
