The material handling industry encompasses a variety of vehicles and machines that specialize in efficient lifting, rapid transport, and accurate placement of goods and materials of all sizes, shapes, and weights. Telehandlers and forklifts are the mainstays of this industry, operating indoors in factories and warehouses, or outdoors on farms and construction sites. Safe lifting of materials and safety for the operator are paramount in this field and new safety regulations are requiring redesign of equipment. There are many opportunities to improve the control, efficiency and safety of material handling equipment through the use of HydraForce’s hydraulic cartridge valves, electronic control units.
