With the improvement of people’s living standards and the development of e-commerce, warehouses, shelves, and pallet forklifts are becoming more and more common. When the boss designs the width of the aisle of his own warehouse, he must make the forklift turn around in the aisle without letting the aisle. It greatly affects the storage capacity of the warehouse. At this time, when we buy a forklift, we have two parameters, the minimum turning radius, and the minimum right-angle stacking channel width. Today, we will explain the two parameters. Minimum turning radius: In the unloaded state, the forklift is driving forward and backward at low speed, turning left or right, and the maximum distance from the outside of the vehicle body to the turning center when the steering wheel is at the maximum turning angle, as shown in the figure:
Minimum right-angle channel width: Adjust the fork to the maximum distance. When the forklift turns at right angles, the minimum channel width is required, as shown in the figure: Figure No. 15 is the front overhang distance, the distance between the front wheel axis and the surface of the fork frame, and 10 is the minimum Turning radius.
The parameters on the color pages of the normal forklift manufacturers are for the goods 1m-1m. The specific size should be determined according to the length and width of the goods and the selected forklift model.
