Forklift truck

The material handling equipment industry has long been a pioneer in electromobility. The challenge: to achieve the same high vehicle availability as with combustion engine-powered vehicles. This is where Linde's Li-ION technology demonstrates its strengths.

Martin Brickell, Director and Practice Lead for Fulfilment & Physical Logistics at Accenture UK, was recently a panellist on a webinar, hosted by Linde Material Handling, entitled “Putting the AI into intralogistics’. Here he gives his perspectives on the opportunity afforded by AI in this pivotal area of the supply chain.

The EG25 – EG35 electric forklift trucks are ideal for occasional use for loading and unloading, or transportation of loads over medium distances in light to medium-duty indoor applications.

For decades now, Linde forklift trucks have been distinguished by their design, for which the honour goes to none other than Porsche Engineering. The most recent achievement of this progressive partnership: the new generation of Linde counterbalance forklift trucks X20 – X35 and H20 – H35.

Linde Material Handling celebrates 50 years of electric forklift trucks and shows what the market leader in this segment has to offer for the future.

A heavy truck with an electric drive – will that work? This was the question asked by Asset VRS, a leading provider and manufacturer of vehicle restraint systems in the UK. But it didn’t take long for the Linde E160, with its Li-ION battery, to demonstrate its considerable advantages.

The best of both worlds – for the best that nature has to offer. That’s the best way to describe the pilot run of the new Linde X35 at German soft drinks manufacturer, Ensinger Mineral-Heilquellen. The new electric forklift truck performance class impressed the managers of the long-established mineral water brand, not only in terms of sustainability, but also with its outstanding performance.

What are the three most important properties of a counterbalanced forklift truck? For the logistics experts at Eibach Oberflächentechnik GmbH (EOT) in Lüdenscheid, Germany, there is only one answer: performance, performance, performance. In a recent field test, the new Linde X35 gave a convincing demonstration of just how well an electric forklift can perform in the tough loading business.

Powerful, energy-efficient and emission-free: the electric heavy trucks from Linde Material Handling for loads of up to 18 tonnes.

First came one test machine, then another two were added, and the aim is that soon, the entire fleet of 8-tonners will be powered by environmentally friendly lithium-ion technology. At leading mineral water producers Gerolsteiner, the Linde E80 offers impressive proof that electric forklift trucks have no trouble matching up to their combustion-powered equivalents.

The choice of energy system has become an increasingly important factor in intralogistics, with particular attention being paid to the Total Cost of Ownership. However, it’s not just the purchase price that plays an important role when buying a forklift truck, but also the operating costs and therefore the energy costs. Whatever energy system you are currently using, we can offer some helpful tips on how to get the best from your energy supply.

Linde Material Handling electric forklift trucks are ideal for precise and efficient logistics processes thanks to their special compact axle.
