VELiA EX : Scale the heights of productivity
New high-level order picker from Mitsubishi impresses operators
Always one for a challenge , Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks have responded to the demands of an ever-increasing market , that demands higher lifts with greater capacities . Mitsubishi have now developed the new VELiA EX , its new range mid-to-high-level order pickers .
Engineered to drive productivity , while saving time and money , VELiA EX includes a heavy-duty , 48-volt model which offers an unbeatable over 12m pick height and 1250 kg capacity .
Like every Mitsubishi order picker , the VELiA EX benefits from the crucial features which impress operators and employers alike – as standard .
Practically perfect picking
Decades of fast-picking experience have gone into the development of the range ’ s spacious operator ’ s compartment . It ’ s been designed to keep pickers picking – even through the longest of shifts .
With its wide entry and ultra-low step height – just 215 mm – it offers virtually effortless access .
Easy grab handles offer added security when entering / exiting the platform . To minimise the risk of slips and falls , designers have covered it in a super-grip material .
Further protection is offered by VELiA EX ’ s Operator Presence Sensor ( OPS ). Set in the platform , removes the need for a dead man ’ s switch , a common trip hazard . Because OPS covers a wide area , operators have freedom of movement within the cabin – reducing risk of fatigue and delays .
Visibility plays a significant role in safe , productive picking . Recognising this , Mitsubishi designers looked for new ways of maximising the operator ’ s field of vision .
