With almost 100 years of experience providing solutions for heavy handling, Hyster has a range of lift trucks ready to meet the specific needs of a wide variety of paper industry applications.
Forklift paper roll attachments
To help increase operational productivity while helping to keep product damage to a minimum, Hyster lift trucks are available with a complete range of paper roll and paper bale clamp attachments. The key is in selecting the right attachment for the specific application.
Hyster offers a varied choice of clamps, all with built-in damage reduction features and advanced hydraulics as standard. Options include different pads, rotator clamps, and multiple roll handler attachments. So, whether you’re handling high gloss finished paper rolls, or rugged paper recycling bales, you can select a dependable combination of truck and attachment.
Specialist Hyster solution for loading trailers
When placing paper rolls into a lorry, it is best practice to load them vertically down the centre line of the lorry bed because this aids even weight distribution. In the past, to accurately position the paper rolls, a larger lift truck would be needed.
To overcome this challenge, Hyster developed an extended reach with tilting carriage solution specifically for the paper industry. This specially engineered option for the Hyster J5.5XN6 forklift gives the forklift operator an additional 250mm of extended reach capability when lifting a 2500mm paper roll at lorry bed height. It helps the operator to position the paper roll inside the lorry bed efficiently. The high level of accuracy also helps to minimise potential damage to the load.
The compact design of the Hyster J5.5XN6 electric lift truck also keeps the truck’s footprint to a minimum. This supports manoeuvrability in the busy industrial warehouse environment where space can be at a premium, all while producing zero emissions.
Electric forklifts for handling paper
Many paper industry businesses are seeking ways to support sustainability efforts. Reducing carbon emissions is one particular focus. Here, Hyster can help businesses to transition to a fleet of tough electric lift trucks, with zero tailpipe emissions.
Hyster has a range of three- and four-wheel electric forklifts that are well suited to the demands of paper handling operations, with capacities from 1 to 5.5 tonnes. These include the lithium-ion battery powered J2.5-3.0XNL series, which combines energy efficiency with performance, for lifts up to 3-tonnes.
With an integrated high voltage lithium-ion battery, this electric Hyster forklift can support intensive three shift operation, benefitting from fast opportunity charging. The lithium-ion batteries are also free of the gassing normally associated with lead acid batteries, resulting in a lower carbon footprint for companies focused on environmental goals.
