Caterpillar Container Forklift Corpus Christi

Caterpillar Container Forklift Corpus Christi

A container forklift is specially used to load and unload big, heavy freight containers. They are utilized to shuttle freight off and on ships, truck beds and trains. Container forklifts are the biggest and most sturdy types of forklifts made. They have to be extremely maneuverable on terrain that is uneven and have enough power and torque to raise bulky containers safely. They usually have heavy-duty diesel engines and big pneumatic tires.



Like all types of forklifts, a container forklift uses forks to raise the containers. Forks have to be positioned to make certain the load is secure during transport. Several types of container forklifts are only designed to lift the containers a few meters off the ground. Other container handlers use another method for lifting containers to greater heights. A container handler makes use of an apparatus attached to the front of the vehicle to clamp down on either end of the container like jaws. The machine is counterbalanced with weights to maintain stability.



Carrying and transferring containers is the main purpose of a container forklift. Standard forklifts do not have enough reach for working in ports. The forks are rated based on the most weight they can handle. The forklift's capabilities must never be exceeded and should be posted prominently in the cockpit.
