GREENVILLE, N.C. (October 12, 2011) – Yale Materials Handling Corporation has launched a new series of AC-powered order selectors with lifting capacities of 1,500 to 3,000 lbs. The new series includes a heavy duty counterbalanced OS030BF, standard duty counterbalanced OS03EF, straddle selector SS030BF and furniture selector FS030BF, to meet your customers’ demanding applications.

“The new order selector series offers intelligently applied technology like Smart-Glide, a continuous height-sensing system that optimizes the maximum travel speed at various fork heights by providing step-less speed control,” said Lou Micheletto, warehouse product manager. “This technology leads to faster travel speeds, improved acceleration and increased productivity.”

The spacious, ergonomically designed operator’s compartment maximizes productivity and minimizes fatigue while the mast offers excellent visibility. The compartment has a low step height, wide-cushioned floor, and a foot switch position that promotes a natural stance.
