Lull Telehandlers
Since 1959, Lull has been making telehandlers. Their machinery have been made for load placement with their patented Stabil-Trak stability system. This system provides much more accurate placement capabilities. Lull telehandlers provide different optional attachments and these telehandlers are available to help you accomplish your requirements, while being safe and efficient at the worksite. When both precision and accuracy are a must, leave it to a Lull telehandler to complete everything you require.
The Future
To be able to make rough terrain forklifts as functional as possible, numerous attachments have been engineered and made like winches, booms, and rotating fork carriages, to allow the forklift to place materials more accurately. The articulating booms or booms come with 2 different extendible arms and could reach up and over structures so as to position loads in the center of upper floors or on interior roof slope settings. New attachments and products are being designed and made all the time and will be available in the future.
A lot of improvements have been made with extra safety features becoming more prevalent. Like for instance, load-reach management devices could automatically restrict the forklift's reach, based on the load being handled rather than relying on the operator. Pressure sensors are utilized to be able to determine the weight of the load. This information is sent to a small electronic memory device which had all the load-reach limitations pre-programmed into it.
The boom's memory would compare the angle and the extension of the boom with the safety limits, once the load is being placed into position. There is a warning system or an essential lock-up device which prevents the operator from over-reaching and potentially causing the forklift to tip over or the boom to fail.
