Very Narrow Aisle Vna Electric Forklift 1500kg 2000kg 3-Way Forklift Multi-Directional Stacker

VNA forklift is a forklift that can pass through very narrow aisles, also known as "very narrow aisle forklift".The most important feature of VNA forklift is that it can achieve high efficiency, accurate and safe storage and retrieval of goods in the warehouse aisle, which can maximise the density of storage of goods, and greatly improve the utilisation rate of warehouse capacity.The application range of VNA forklift is very wide, especially suitable for places where the storage density of goods is large and requires high-density racking inventory. VNA forklifts have a very wide range of applications, especially suitable for goods varieties of single storage density, warehouse area is relatively small and the need for high-density racking inventory places. At present, VNA forklift trucks have been widely used in electronics, medicine, daily necessities, food and other industries.

1. Extremely narrow operating aisles: VNA forklift trucks are usually designed as very narrow forklift trucks that can operate freely in warehouse aisles that are very narrow in width, a feature that makes it possible to make full use of the vertical space in the warehouse and increase storage density.
2. Height Adjustable: VNA forklift trucks can usually reach a very high lifting height, making them suitable for high warehouse rooms and situations where vertical storage is required.
3. Steering Mechanism: VNA forklift trucks are often equipped with a unique steering mechanism that allows their operators to rotate in very narrow aisles, increasing ease of operation.
4. Increased Efficiency: Because VNA forklift trucks have a higher degree of manoeuvrability and height than conventional forklift trucks, they are often able to handle more loads per unit of time, which improves work efficiency.

Major differences between VNA (Very Narrow Aisle) three-way reach trucks and conventional reach trucks:

Manoeuvrability:

VNA 3-way reach trucks: These trucks are designed for maximum manoeuvrability in extremely narrow aisles. They can move forwards and backwards like conventional reach trucks, but can also rotate the mast and forks 180 degrees for sideways movement. This feature allows them to operate in aisles that are 1.5 metres (5 feet) or narrower.
Conventional Reach Trucks: Conventional reach trucks operate primarily in the forward and reverse directions. While they are still designed for narrow aisle applications, they typically require wider aisles than the VNA 3-way reach trucks because they cannot operate sideways.
Aisle Width Requirements:

VNA 3 Reach Trucks: Because of their unique lateral manoeuvrability, VNA 3 Reach Trucks require narrower aisles to operate, typically around 1.5 m (5 ft) or narrower. This allows for more efficient use of warehouse space and maximises storage capacity.
Conventional reach trucks: Conventional reach trucks require slightly wider aisles to operate, typically 2.5 to 3 metres (8 to 10 feet) or wider, depending on the model and load size. While still suitable for narrow aisle applications, they may not be as space efficient as VNA 3-way reach trucks.
Load Handling:

VNA 3 Forward Moving Trucks: These trucks have the ability to rotate the mast and forks so they can move loads in multiple directions. They can pick up, transport and store loads facing forwards, backwards or sideways, providing greater flexibility when handling irregularly shaped or oversized loads.
Conventional Reach Trucks: Conventional reach trucks are primarily used for forward-facing loads. While they can extend their forks to access pallets from a racking system, they have limited manoeuvrability compared to VNA 3-way reach trucks, especially when handling goods in tight spaces.
Productivity and efficiency:

VNA 3 reach trucks: With the ability to manoeuvre in multiple directions and operate in narrow aisles, VNA 3 reach trucks are extremely efficient when picking and storing stock in high-density storage environments. They can significantly reduce travelling distances and cycle times, thereby increasing productivity.
Conventional reach trucks: While still efficient in narrow aisle operations, conventional reach trucks may require more operating space than VNA 3-way reach trucks, resulting in slightly longer cycle times and reduced productivity, especially in facilities with limited aisle space.
 

Overall, VNA 3-way reach trucks offer superior manoeuvrability, cargo handling versatility and space efficiency compared to conventional reach trucks. They are ideally suited to maximising storage capacity in warehouses with narrow aisles, and are particularly well suited to handling irregularly shaped or oversized items.
