An
excellent example of the benefits of the Stärke Continuous Stability System
on an electric pallet truck was recently witnessed by Stärke dealer sales
representative Brian Harmon of LIFT Inc. in Buford, Georgia. As he stood in the
warehouse of a beverage company, presenting a demonstration of the Stärke
PT45WAX AC electric walkie pallet truck, the lack of a proper stability system
became shockingly obvious.
The scene
was one of hurried operators in a fast paced distribution facility. Brian was
speaking with the warehouse manager about the new Stärke PT45WAX. He had -
seconds ago - finished explaining the Stärke Continuous Stability System
(which comes standard on all electric pallet trucks) when an operator rounded a
corner in front of them a little too sharply, and the competitor unit - fully
stocked with several cases of beer - lost a few cases from the top layer, which
fell from the load. The outcome was a loud crash on the concrete floor, and a
resulting pool of beer.
Brian just
shook his head. “No, sir.” He said, looking down in a moment of silence for the
lost beer.
This story
could have saved the company money rather than lost money with a Stärke AC
pallet truck which does not depend on raised fixed stop supports to keep the
truck from tipping, but rather cantilevered spring loaded casters, which have
constant contact with the floor.
Thanks to our Georgia Dealer, Lift Inc., and Brian Harmon for the enlightening story.
