Single Height Shift Systems Level Compensation

Prevent damage to long goods and dangerous situations when driving on slopes.

Not only are pallets used in distribution centers and production facilities, but many long goods, such as metal, wood, plastic profiles, or machines that cannot be handled on pallets due to their length, are also transported. These types of loads are carried by so-called side loader forklifts. As with pallet transport, the goods may remain stable on the forks at all times.

During transport, long goods must be stable on the forklift forks. If not, the load may slide off the forks when traversing slopes or hilly terrain. This can lead to product damage and pose a risk of injury to nearby personnel. The vertical fork adjustment system of KOOI® allows for compensation of height differences when navigating slopes, ensuring that the load remains horizontal and preventing damage. Even when pallets need to be transported on a construction site, for example, the load must remain stable on the pallet to prevent it from falling off.

The advantages of Single Height Shift Systems

Increased Safety

Not all roads and work sites are flat, as is common in the Netherlands. In situations where there is a risk of the load sliding off the forks or falling off pallets, significant product damage can be prevented. Additionally, a falling load can cause further issues if bystanders are involved.

Time Saving

A falling load causes product damage, and beyond material losses, it incurs additional costs such as repackaging/restacking, inventory adjustments, damage reports for the customer, and extra waiting time because another shipment product needs to be supplied.

Satisfaction

What should you do as a driver if you know there is a constant risk of your load being damaged because it can slide off the forks or fall, especially when a solution exists to prevent this damage? The right equipment, allows the driver to work more efficiently and find greater satisfaction in their job.
