An Introduction To Forklift Attachments / Lift Truck Attachments

When it comes to lift truck attachments, the sky’s the limit. If you can dream it, it likely already exists.

The pictures above represent a small fraction of the different types of forklift attachments that are available.

In addition, most professional forklift attachment manufacturers will entertain building a custom, never-designed-before solution when presented with the opportunity to do so.

Separately, it’s very important to properly match any of these attachments to the forklift so they work in harmony with the needs of your business. To do that, you need an experienced forklift professional that understands the nature of your application, but who also understands the technical limitations of the attachment and the forklift equipment in question.

Fleetman Consulting Inc. has the experience and the tools to investigate whether forklift attachments are right for your business and they have the skills to figure out exactly which one is right for you.

The Top ( 6 ) Ways To Spot A Forklift Attachment Application

1. Look for uniformly sized products being handled manually and in large volumes by unskilled employees. A perfect example is where a shipping container is being unloaded by hand because the boxes are not on pallets.
2. Observe bottlenecks throughout the material handling process where goods are taking far too long to be loaded, unloaded or put into storage.
3. Look for poorly utilized forklift assets. With the right attachment, maybe this forklift could be more useful at your facility.
4. Take note of repetitive staff injuries caused by employees manually handling your products in an unsafe manner.
5. Look for excessive product damage due to inefficient or unsafe handling of your products.
6. Look for hard to handle, awkward shaped items that aren’t easy to palletize.
