Crown MPC 3000 Series Lift Truck

Crown Equipment has launched a lift truck series that combines the benefits of an order picker with the advantages of a counterbalance forklift.

The Crown MPC 3000 Series combines a high-lift, clear-view mast with an outrigger-free counterbalance design and an ergonomic ride-on platform; a combination that creates a versatile, multipurpose lift truck capable of performing tasks usually requiring more than one piece of equipment.

It is capable of travelling up to 12.5 km/h and lifting 1200 kg to a height of 4.3 m. The lift truck can lift full-capacity loads (at a 600 mm load centre) to the full height of the mast.

The all-round solid steel construction is designed and tested to withstand intensive use while the large, long-life load wheels are easily accessible for quick replacement.

The product automatically adjusts cornering speed and acceleration, depending on steer wheel angle, fork height and load weight, for stability. Combined with responsive brakes and a suspended, shock-absorbing floorboard, it maximises operator safety, comfort and confidence.

The truck’s layout makes it suitable for order picking as well as replenishing low-level pick slots from high-level storage, an activity that usually requires separate reach trucks and high-lift trucks.
