Frequently asked questions
Order pickers are forklift trucks mainly used to carry and transport items that are picked by the operator on a pallet or roll cage to the marshalling area. Often seen in warehouses storing fast-moving goods to fulfil orders, or in parts areas to feed production
There are specific models to support level picking, with the option to elevate the forks for more ergonomic picking. Order pickers with elevating platform can take operators to 2.8 m for first and/or second level picking. For picking at higher heights, Toyota has a wide range of medium to high-level order pickers with picking heights up to 12.1 m. This range can be chosen with rail/wire guidance or free operation to operate in narrow aisles.
You should consider a few things when purchasing an order picker:
- What type of load carrier and quantity: the trucks can handle different types of load carriers, i.e.2 pallets or up to 5 roll cages
- Required picking height: the range offers picking heights up to second level
- Safety: for safer operation, the high-level order pickers can be chosen with rail or wire guidance
- Ergonomics: for more ergonomic working, models with elevated forks can be chosen, to function as worktable. The models with platform lift support more ergonomic picking at higher heights. The remote drive solution, t-mote, is a great tool to increase efficiency and ergonomics when picking at ground level.
Toyota’s medium to high-level order pickers come with different guidance systems:
- Wire guidance: cables are mounted in the floor. The order pickers can pick up the signal of the cable to get automatic guidance
- Rail guidance: metal profiles are installed on the sides of the aisle to guide the machine
- No guidance/free ranging: the order picker can steer the truck independently.
Cold store operations are one of the toughest working environments. Sub-zero temperatures affect your trucks’ battery capacity, electronics and lubrication. Toyota offers dedicated cold store order picker trucks to ensure uptime in these applications. Get in touch with our sales experts for advice.
