What are the common forklift fork arm classifications?

1. Side-shift fork arm. Used for precise left and right adjustment of goods with pallets at the bottom. Goods can be loaded and stacked accurately and efficiently. Its use not only improves work efficiency and service life, but also reduces the labor expenditure of forklift operators. It enhances the actual utilization of warehouses. There are two installation methods: complete and external.

2. Forward-moving fork arm. Used for forking goods far away from the vehicle, it can quickly and conveniently load and unload goods from one side of the truck compartment. Generally, there is only a hanging installation method.

3. Adjustable fork arm. The fork arm interval is automatically adjusted through the hydraulic control of the forklift to match the fork load of palletized goods of different specifications, eliminating the time and inaccuracy of manual control. It is usually combined with the forward-moving fork arm to improve work efficiency. Its installation method also has the difference between complete and external.

4. Fork clamp fork arm. It can not only be used to carry pallet goods, but also to clamp goods or replace the multi-functional fork arm of the adjustable fork arm. If a detachable clamping arm is installed, the function of clamping barrels and bricks can be added. The installation method is single hanging type.

5. Multi-purpose flat clamping fork arm. It can carry paper, wooden or metal outer box goods without pallets. This saves a lot of pallet purchase and maintenance costs. The installation method is also hanging type.

6. Rotator fork arm. It is a fork arm that can rotate at all angles. It is used for dumping containers or reversing goods. It can also turn the goods upside down or horizontally as required. It can be installed on other forks to add rotation function to other forks. The installation method is hanging type.
