Pallet trucks are used to lift loads and horizontally move objects. Pallet trucks are outfitted for specific use with pallets in storage, warehouse, and manufacturing settings

Counter-balanced forklift truck

This is a picture of a counterbalance truck. It does not have any stabilization legs protruding from the front so it is ideal for narrow aisle warehouses and placing pallets side by side. The advantages are that it is less expensive, takes up less space and can maneuver in tight aisles. In addition, counterbalancing basically prevents the lift from toppling over by using a series of weights, which is a heavy iron mass or the large lead-acid battery, necessary to compensate for the load.

Some lift trucks are designed for the lifting of pallets exclusively, while other lift trucks are designed to maneuver down narrow aisles. Some examples of a more specialized truck are Articulated Counterbalance Trucks and Guided Very Narrow Aisle trucks.

Reach trucks

A reach truck is a small ride on machine, typically used to lower or raise pallets in small isles of warehouses. Reach trucks normally reach up to 8 meters high. Compared to counterbalanced truck, the length is much shorter. Operator may sit or stand on the machine in a front facing or side on position, depending on the type of the truck.

A Side Loader forklift is normally used to pick-up and transport long loads or several pallets next to each other. The loads are picked up at 90 degrees to the direction of travel. The four-way side loader forklift enables all wheels to rotate by 90 degrees for travel within narrow aisles.

The fork can be raised or lowered to any of the levels of a storage rack and can be extended into the rack to store and retrieve product. Stacker cranes are often used in the large freezer warehouses of frozen food manufacturers
