Most of the reach trucks are driven by electric motors, so they have low noise, no pollution, high energy conversion rate, and belong to the green environmental protection vehicles, and do not need to add fuel, and the cost cost is low. In line with the current concept of green environmental protection. When loading and unloading goods, the gantry can be extended out, and the gantry can be contracted back when walking, which can reduce the turning radius of the forklift and improve the stability of the forklift in operation. At the same time, it has two legs that extend forward, and the legs are high, and there are two wheels at the front end, which ensures the stability of the forklift when loading. The lifting capacity of the forklift is relatively small, and its gantry can take the lifting mechanism to migrate along the track on the inside of the legs, which is convenient for picking up the goods. When the gantry rises to the front, the center of gravity of the load is on the outside of the pivot point; when the gantry is withdrawn, the center of the load is back to the inside of the pivot point; therefore, the forward forklift truck has the advantage of flexibility in operation, and it has the advantage of high loading.

1. Forward movement function: a reach forklift has a unique forward movement function that allows it to operate in tight spaces, thus being able to provide more maneuverability and flexibility when needed.
2. Confined space: Due to the forward shift function of the reach truck, it is suitable for use in confined spaces, such as warehouses with dense stacking of goods, narrow aisles between shelves, etc. The reach truck can be used in environments with dense stacking of goods. Applied to the environment with dense stacking of goods, it can be more convenient to dispatch and move goods.
3. Equipped with electronic drive wheels, making the operation more flexible and convenient, with turning deceleration function.
4.280Ah large-capacity battery can be used for long time work, and the side-pull battery can be replaced at any time.
5. One-piece forged forks with stronger load bearing, forks with up and down swing function, suitable for all kinds of single-sided, double-sided, tic-tac-toe and chuan-tac-toe pallets.
6. Flexibility: Front shift forklift trucks are able to travel and steer freely in the narrow space, which greatly improves the handling efficiency.

 Difference between counterbalanced forklift trucks and reach trucks
The body structure is different
Counterbalanced forklift trucks are designed to balance the weight of the loaded part through the double wheels at the bottom of the body, which has good stability. While the front shift forklift adopts the design of moving the driver's cockpit forward at the front end of the body, which makes the centre of gravity at the front end more prominent, and enables it to enter the narrow shelf space more flexibly.
Applicable sites are different
Due to the two-wheel structure of counterbalanced forklift trucks, they are suitable for flat ground, such as indoor warehouses, loading and unloading sites and production workshops. The driver's cockpit of the reach truck can be manoeuvred more flexibly in both indoor and outdoor areas, such as loading and unloading on top of lorries, or handling goods between telescopic shelves.
The handling capacity is different
Counterbalanced forklift trucks, due to their stable structure, can handle items of different weights and volumes, and multiple items at the same time. Front shift forklift trucks, due to their compact body structure, can be well adapted to the narrow shelf space, but their handling capacity is usually not as good as counterbalanced forklift trucks.
The use of different efficiency
Due to the differences in body structure and handling capacity, counterbalanced forklift trucks are more suitable for large warehouses and production lines and other occasions that require high efficiency. Forward lift trucks are more suitable for occasions that require frequent change of workplace or flexible operation.
To sum up, there are certain differences between counterbalanced forklift trucks and reach trucks in terms of body structure, applicable sites, handling capacity and usage efficiency, etc. Users should choose forklift trucks according to their actual needs. Users should choose the type of forklift suitable for their own occasions according to their actual needs, in order to improve work efficiency and reduce costs.
