Lifting Machines
Forklifts are powerful, compact industrial vehicle with a lift at the front used for lifting, moving, and placing materials on pallets or in containers. Operated by a seated or standing operator, they are powered by batteries or internal combustion engines and are indispensable for material handling in industries like warehousing, manufacturing, and distribution. Common types include the versatile counterbalance forklift for general use, the reach truck for high-density storage in narrow aisles, and rough terrain forklifts for uneven surfaces.
