Narrow Aisle Launches Pedestrian Operated Flexi
28th September 2016
Narrow Aisle Ltd has added to its extensive range of intralogistics solutions with the launch of the Flexi AC NANO TW/FW pedestrian-operated VNA truck.
The new model is offered as a low-cost alternative to companies in the warehouse and retail logistics sectors who want to achieve the space saving and storage efficiencies associated with Narrow Aisles top-selling Flexi articulated truck range but for whom a pedestrian-operated Flexi is the ideal solution.
The truck is available in both two-way (TW) and four-way (FW) versions both of which offer versatile performance.
The TW model allows multi-directional longitudinal travel while, with the FW variant, both longitudinal and transverse travel is possible – enabling pallets and lengthy loads to be handled in very narrow aisles. The Flexi AC Nano FW is ideal for handling long loads such wood, furniture, pipework and steel.
When the operators tiller is in the normal position the handle is parallel to the drive wheel, which enables safe and fast travel down very narrow storage aisles.
Once at the desired location the stacker can be turned through ninety degrees to face the pallet rack. The steering system allows the operator to drive the pallet and forks into the rack location before lowering the mast and load in to position.
The Flexi AC NANOs robust fork reach system is a hydraulic pantograph fork carriage which not only ensures that the operator has an excellent view of the load but also allows both ISO and Euro-type pallets to be handled.
