Caterpillar End Control Forklifts San Jose

In warehouse and manufacturing environments, the kinds of machinery that drivers utilize to transport materials from one place to another are known as forklifts. The machinery lifts pallets, also called skids, which are loaded with objects. The lift truck is designed with forks that insert into the rungs of the pallet. Forklifts are also sometimes called Pallet Trucks, Lift Trucks, Skid Trucks, High/Low, Side Loaders and Stacker Trucks.



The very first forklifts were sold in the early part of the 1900s by companies such as Yale & Towne Manufacturing and Clark. Today most supplies are delivered to warehouses and stores on pallets. Forklifts are commonly found within manufacturing factories and warehouses, where they are used to operate the business smoothly.
