Jungheinrich is launching a new battery-powered multi-functional reach truck with electric all-wheel steering ETV Q20/ETV Q25 which are equipped with electronically controlled all-wheel steering. This enables the truck to travel in virtually all directions. The new development makes truck deployment possible wherever long loads need to be transported and lifted to high lift heights in narrow aisles. The truck's electric all-wheel steering enables it to transport and store loads up to 8m in length, thus maximising warehouse space.
The truck's standard 360-degree steering provides not only for a minimum turning radius, but also for fast changes of direction. The standard version of the new ETV Q multi-directional forklift already covers the vast majority of operator needs that enhanced requirements could be met in the future by a series of additional options, including a vastly increased range of options designed for series 2 and 3 Jungheinrich reach trucks. Series production of the ETV Q20/ETV Q25 trucks is scheduled to commence in September 2010.
