Meijer Handling Solutions has introduced a range of hydraulic forks for warehouse trucks, reachtrucks, etc. that are ideal for double-deep pallet storage. Double-deep stacking increases warehouse capacity by up to 30% compared to "single-deep" warehouse operations. Because telescopic forks can reach twice as far as normal forks the warehouse racking at each side of the aisle can be doubled. It is even possible to fit these ReachForks with cameras to aid overhead pallet stacking.
This so-called RG2 range is unique in that each tine has its own cylinder meaning that ReachForks can be extended and retracted as fast as pantographs that are frequently used in America and Asia.
