Explanation:

Forklifts:

  • The forklift is a small 4 -wheeled vehicle used for lifting loads and then shifting them to other locations in a factory
  • The front of the machine has two steel lifting arms or forks
  • In a fork-lift truck, the forks are attached to a column on the truck.
  • Forks can be lifted to the desired height along with the materials (boxes etc.) on them and the material can be stacked at the proper place.
  • Fork-lift trucks are used for short-distance (40 to 70 metres) travel and find indoor applications normally.
  • So, fork-lift is used for lifting, lowering and vertical transportation.
