The new Swing-Reach forklift from The Raymond Corporation
US materials handling solutions provider The Raymond Corporation has launched its new 9000 series that features a range of energy-saving devices.

Swing-Reach forklifts can save energy with regenerative lowering that automatically recharges the battery and LED compartment lights while the AC technology - ACR System - ensures longer battery run times.

Susan Comfort, Class II product manager for Raymond, says regenerative lowering recharges the battery when the forks are lowered, which allows for longer battery life. "When lowering the forks with a load, the motor generates energy that is fed back into the battery, maximising battery efficiency and providing a more consistent lifting and lowering speed."

Raymond's ACR System - AC-powered - delivers more run-time per battery charge and experiences less reduction in forklift performance as the battery discharges for greater reliability.

The 9000 Series forklifts are ideal for pallet handling and case picking. They can be adapted to changing warehouse environments and narrow aisles.

They can elevate up to 45 feet (12.8 m), can handle loads up to 60 inches (152.4 cm) deep or 108 inches (274.32 cm) wide and operate in aisles as narrow as 66 inches (167.64 cm).
