shelving eats up valuable floor space
and exposes parts. What’s more, parts
can be tough to find and reach; keeping
accurate inventories a challenge.
The Lauyans Small Parts Storage
System (SPSS) is a USA manufactured
solution offering high density storage
utilizing vertical space for greater
footprint capacity, worker safety,
security, labor savings and the most
competitive pricing available.

Models 9300 and 9400 side-loaders: Designed specifically
for handling long or bulky loads in narrow aisles, the models
9300 and 9400 side-loaders from The Raymond Corp. feature
a high stacking capability and the versatility to be used for
transport and rack storage.
Featuring AC drive and AC lift, the new side-loaders offer
Raymond’s energy-efficient ACR System. The system increases
uptime, delivers fast travel and lift speeds, and maintains high
performance throughout the battery cycle, according to the
company.
Raymond engineered the new side-loaders to handle a variety of load types in applications such as narrow aisle storage,
palletless handling, and long-load handling. These vehicles have a 12,000-pound lifting
capacity in various configurations and a 30-foot stacking capability for loads as long as 26
feet. These capabilities allow the Raymond side-loaders to handle challenging loads, including bar stock, carpets, furniture, tubing, and lumber.
The Raymond side-loaders feature a high-voltage system powered by two 24-volt batteries. The easy-to-operate single-axis control handle enables excellent operator control,
according to the manufacturer. Power steering enhances maneuverability by allowing each
set of wheels to turn independently for better handling in narrow aisles and tight spaces.
To facilitate maintenance, the Raymond side-loaders display diagnostics on an information
center monitor in the operator compartment. Information displayed includes the drive axle
position, hour meters, troubleshooting messages, and battery state of charge. (The Raymond
