Carter Holt Harvey Pinepanels - Hyster H14.00XM

Carter Holt Harvey's giant MDF mill at Rangiora are rapt with their new Hyster H14.00XM forklifts which were delivered recently after a rigorous purchasing evaluation programme. The Pinepanels site had fond memories of the Hysters they used many years ago, and were impressed with the latest model from Hyster's Nijmegen plant. Pinepanel's site requirements are demanding, with reliability from the forklifts of utmost importance, due to the high costs involved in interrupting production. The forklifts also work very high hours, in some cases in excess of 6000 per annum. Gough Forklifts could see the benefits that the new Hysters would offer Pinepanels, as not only are these new trucks the toughest in the industry, but they also have unsurpassed levels of operator comfort. Fork visibility was also an important consideration for Pinepanels, as MDF boards are easily damaged if handled incorrectly. Hyster's award-winning cabin, with curved front windscreen and slim profile A pillars,provides outstanding forward visibility, and the operators at CHH have been quick to appreciate the benefits Hyster provides. The two new trucks were specified by Craig Armstrong-Fray of Gough Forklifts, who was present at the handover along with (from left) Paul Foster of Goughs and Paul Robertshaw and Shane Thomson of Carter Holt Harvey Pinepanels.

HYSTER BOOSTS PRODUCTION IN HOLLAND
Nymegem, Netherlands
Thursday, 19 July 2001

NYMEGEN, Holland -- Hyster's 550-machine annual production rate at its Nymegen facility will be doubled this year as part of a new plan to build all the manufacturer's top-end forklift range in Holland.

The H8.00-16.00XM, launched in April, is the first model to be built in Nymegen under the new arrangement.

The 65,000sq m Nymegen plant will become Hyster's world development centre for heavy forklifts, taking over from the Danville, USA facility at the end of this year. Since 1997, Hyster has invested USD16.2 million in switching its heavy truck production from the USA to Holland. Hyster will also expand its 600-person Nymegen workforce.

The USA buys half of Hyster's Nymegen-manufactured machines, a quarter go to Germany, and England and France are the next largest markets. Hyster also services the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Eastern Europe, and has production facilities in Scotland, Northern Ireland and Italy.

The Dutch plant has 90,000 different spare parts and a stock of five million pieces. About 500 spare parts orders are handled each day for customers in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Hyster, a subsidiary of the Nacco Materials Handling Group, produces 130 forklift models, including pallet trucks, stackers, reach stackers, low and high pickers, and forklifts and container handlers ranging from one tonne to 52 tonnes.

The Hyster Reach truck Series - At a glance - R1.4-2.5

The R1.4-1.6 capacity range has compact dimensions and excellecent manoeuvrability. A narrow chassis version is available for those applications where space is most critical.

The R2.0-2.5 capacity range is specially conceived for heavy duty applications. These models offer excellent residual capacities at height with added built-in strength in the specifically designed mast structure.

Style and visibility.

Visibility is key to increasing handling speed and accuracy. The mast design offers a wide "see through" and great "past the mast" visibility. The raised floor height of the operator station helps the drivers' downward view to the fork at floor level, whilst the angled bracing on the overhead guard allows upward visibility when loads are raised. For first level handling the fork carriage features a generous window.

Optimise performance

A range of preset performance selectors that provide settings for speed and accelaration, braking and inversion braking, allow the driver to individually select a prefered driving style by means of a simple push button action.

AC technology

Speed is of the essence. Alternating Current (AC) technology confers very powerful accelaration and braking torque.

For service, AC technology has no need for brush replacement, reducing the maintenance items, and prolonging service life.
