New Raymond® 24-volt Reach-Fork® truck delivers benefits of AC technology

Frozen Food Digest, Feb-March, 2005

The Raymond Corp. has introduced a 24-volt model to its family of Reach-Fork[R] trucks equipped with the ACR System[TM].

Raymond's exclusive, proven ACR System uses AC technology to deliver more truck uptime, fewer battery changes and lower maintenance costs, while enabling users to move more product faster.

"The ACR System became so popular when it was introduced with our 36-Volt Reach-Fork truck that customers asked for those same benefits in a 24-volt truck application," says John Colborn, reach truck marketing director for The Raymond Corp.

"The 24-Volt Reach-Fork truck delivers more uptime, lower cost of operation, faster travel speeds, quicker acceleration and smoother direction changes. It all adds up to higher truck utilization at lower cost, which is particularly appealing for the warehouses of today," Colborn adds.

The 24-volt truck has a 14-inch battery compartment, and uses an AC drive motor to deliver more runtime per battery charge, and maintain full performance longer. It uses fewer amps per cycle, so users will save on batteries, chargers and downtime. By eliminating the requirement for drive motor brushes, AC technology also reduces service requirements and parts costs
