Lull Telehandlers
Ever since 1959, Lull has been producing telehandlers. Their machinery have been designed for load placement with their patented Stabil-Trak stability system. This system provides much more precise placement capabilities. Lull telehandlers offer different optional attachments and these telehandlers are available to help you accomplish your requirements, whilst being efficient and safe at the worksite. When precision and accuracy are really vital, leave it to a Lull telehandler to accomplish everything you require.
The Future
In order to make rough terrain forklifts as efficient as possible, many attachments have been designed and made such as winches, booms, and rotating fork carriages, to allow the forklift to place materials more accurately. The articulating booms or booms are available in 2 different extendible arms and can reach up and over structures in order to place loads on interior roof slope settings or in the center of upper floors. New products and attachments are being engineered and made all the time and would debut in the future.
With extra safety features becoming more prevalent, several improvements have been made. For example, load-reach management devices are able to automatically restrict the forklift's reach, based on the load being handled as opposed to relying on the operator. Pressure sensors are utilized in order to know the weight of the load. This information is sent to a small electronic memory device which had all the load-reach limitations pre-programmed into it.
When the load is being placed into position, the memory would compare the extension of the boom and the angle of the boom with the safety limits. There is an important lock-up device or a warning system that prevents the operator from over-reaching and possibly causing the boom to fail or the forklift to tip over.
