Nexen’s X-Range counterbalanced forklift trucks are said to represent a breakthrough in the design of materials handling equipment where health and safety are as important as reliability and performance.
The Suffolk company has used virtual design software to produce a product with innovative operational features and operator comfort and safety.
All models in the new range feature a spacious, fully floating and vibration isolated driver’s cell with a fully adjustable suspension seat and steering column – all aimed at minimising the transmission of drive train vibration to the operator. In addition, a strong overhead guard, isolated from the chassis, ensures maximum protection and driver fatigue is minimised thanks to the low levels of noise achieved by the design team.
The Optimal models also incorporate an effective anti-rollback system which provides operator confidence when working on ramps or inclines.
