Extra-tall reach truck: Raymond Corp. says
its newly introduced high-capacity reach truck
goes higher than any other reach truck
currently in the market. The new Raymond
High-capacity Reach-Fork truck can reach
up to 542 inches and carry loads of up to
4,500 pounds. It is also more productive and
lifts faster than Raymond’s existing reach
trucks, the manufacturer says. Raymond says
it designed the new truck in response to the
trend among companies to build warehouses
and DCs up instead of out in an effort to
make more efficient use of their space.
The new reach truck is equipped with the
Raymond Vantage Point system, which helps
operators more accurately position the forks
at great lift heights. The camera, which is
positioned between the forks, has a high
dynamic range (HDR) image sensor, which
helps it function in both low and high light.
The camera is wired to a display that provides
the operator with intelligence and telematics.
At the Modex 2018 show in April, Raymond
also introduced its virtual reality training simulator and its Pick2Pallet LED light system
for a low-level order picker. The Pick2Pallet
incorporates pick-to-light technology onto
the forks of the order picker in order to help
operators pick multiple orders onto the same
picker at the same time. An LED light on the
fork illuminates under the correct pallet for
the product being picked. (Raymond Corp.,
