Waiting times, empty runs, and excessively long idle times are the bane of operators of large fleets of industrial trucks. The startup "MotionMiners" will be presenting its sensor-based fleet analysis at LogiMAT from March 19th to 21st, in Hall 8.

Under the aptly named "Yale Reliant," the forklift manufacturer has put together a comprehensive package with state-of-the-art assistance systems, designed to be compatible with all types and brands, regardless of the manufacturer. 5,000 units are already in operation in the USA. The European premiere will take place at LogiMAT.

In keeping with its sporty image, and thus also fitting its role as logistics partner for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, Toyota MH will present itself at LogiMAT (March 19-21) in Stuttgart with a "Stadium of Intralogistics", an innovation camp, "top stacking athletes" and current concept studies.

Media representatives took the opportunity to visit Linde Material Handling's new "Experience HUB" on the sidelines of the highly anticipated presentation of the "Cooperative Autonomous Intralogistics Systems" (KAnIS) project in Aschaffenburg. 

During a live presentation at the Spanish port of Valencia, participants were able to witness the Hyster reach stacker with hydrogen fuel cell and refueling system in action. According to the manufacturer, this is the first reach stacker application of its kind in Europe to operate under real-world conditions.

In the presence of numerous project participants, university dignitaries, and product developers, the results presentation of the first fully automated counterbalance forklifts took place at Linde Material Handling in Aschaffenburg. Four forklifts were used to demonstrate how this technology could work in the future.  

For some time now, Feldschlösschen, the largest beverage distributor in Switzerland, has been using a warning system from Elokon in areas where production and order picking employees are on foot and on industrial trucks in areas that are not spatially separated from each other.

Tugger trains transport materials on a trolley or rolling rack within the trailer frame, sometimes over long distances, to deliver them to various points in production and assembly. Outdoors, they must also be able to cope with uneven road surfaces. Linde is developing new versions.

Hyster's new RO1.6-2.0 pushmaster models are equipped with super-elastic tires on the load and drive wheels, enabling them to maneuver on uneven outdoor terrain as well as in warehouses.

Forklift manufacturer Still can now call itself the first original equipment manufacturer in Europe to offer its own fuel cell system. After a lengthy preparation period, the first production line for 24-volt systems was commissioned in a celebratory ceremony. 

Jungheinrich reported record highs in revenue and net income for the third quarter, but a noticeable decline in vehicle orders. For 2023, the company anticipates total order intake of between €5 billion and €5.4 billion (2022: €4.8 billion) and revenue of roughly the same amount. 

Linde Material Handling has opened a six-story office building for its headquarters in Aschaffenburg. The new building complex also includes a newly constructed 5,500-square-meter hall for training courses, product presentations, and events.

 The KBP 15L

Enter the new Baoli KBP 15L. According to the manufacturer, this electric pallet truck, with its 1.5-ton load capacity and compact design, is suitable for almost all medium-duty applications in shops, supermarkets, and DIY stores. Its price-performance ratio seems to make it an easy choice, provided there are no additional system requirements. 

U.Just

Most recently, she was responsible for sales and service in the Kion forklift segment in Great Britain and Ireland. Ulrike Just has now been appointed Executive Vice President Sales & Service for Linde MH EMEA. 

Not every pilot project that's underway gets the media hype. This is also true of an analysis by forklift manufacturer Still at Migros, according to which the automated horizontal order picker OPX iGo neo would achieve completely new levels of "decarbonization".
