RollerForks® is a special material handling equipment that can be used for loading and unloading of containers or lorries. The forks can be mounted on all existing fork lift trucks with a tilting function. Compared to any other forklift attachment, like the push-pull system, the residual capacity of a lift truck equipped with RollerForks is much higher. This is caused by the little weight of the RollerForks. In practice a heavier lift truck is required when using a push-pull and that will result in higher costs. RollerForks® operate without any hydraulics and can save an extra hydraulic valve and all related hoses through the mast. Compared to the push-pull system the purchase costs of a pair of RollerForks® is at least 50% of the Push-pull.

A small summary:

• RollerForks are much cheaper then Push-Pull.
• RollerForks do not need any hydraulics.
• RollerForks don’t require a heavier lift truck.
• RollerForks can be used for standard pallet handling.
• RollerForks are saver in use because of the excellent visibility which prevents damages as well.
• Maintenance is cheaper and faster because of the changeable roller cartridges and replaceable taper.
• The operating speed of the RollerForks is very fast (handling speed = speed of lift truck).
• RollerForks in combination with the RF-Pallet improves again handling costs.
