Safe time saver

03 June 2013

Five Aisle-Master articulated trucks from Combilift, soon to be a sixth, have been deployed at the UK manufacturing and distribution centre of personal care products manufacturer the Mibelle Group, in Bradford.

The electric powered narrow chassis 15E Aisle-Master models transport incoming raw materials to the storage facilities and manufacturing areas and also pick finished goods. The trucks can work in very narrow aisles, as well as inside and out, on gradients and in wintry conditions.

 

Of the integral hydraulic fork positioner, warehouse manager Gareth Barnes says: "Due to the widely varying sizes of pallets we handle, this is a great time saver. The drivers use it virtually all the time and there is no longer any need for them to keep jumping on and off the trucks to manually adjust the forks, which is also better from a health and safety point of view.”
