Hyster specialist in the beverage industry

Hyster, the people of the Distillery

Hyster has invested heavily in finding out what the beverage industry wants. Interviewing people who handle beverage products on a daily basis.

 

Hyster translates this information into solutions that suit the beverage industry. Through engineering, innovative options have been developed to help save time, energy and costs, reduce CO2 emissions, and operate ergonomics for operators and applications.

Hyster is designed for reliability, productivity, efficiency and environmental sustainability. Investments continue with future technology to further improve current solutions.

WHAT IS A DRINK SPECIFICATION?

Visibility over high loads is no longer a problem, thanks to Hyster High Operator cabs. Operator seat raised by 500mm for Diesel / LPG machines and options 350mm or 450mm for electric machines, also possible with side battery drain.

Visibility

High loads, such as bottle boxes, cans, or stacked barrels, reduce the operator's visibility when driving forward. When reversing, operators look backwards for long periods of time, possibly causing fatigue and affecting the operator's performance. We know that.

At Hyster® we also know how to overcome these challenges. When the driver's seat is raised, the driver can see above the top of the load being carried forward while driving forward.

The High Position Operator option allows the height of the driver's seat to be increased by 500mm in 2-5.5t Internal Combustion Forklifts, while there are three options available for 2.2-3.5t electric forklifts.

  • The chassis of the electric forklift is raised by either 350mm or 454mm.
  • Increases by 350 mm on the side battery drive.
  • Note that on the Side Battery Exhaust Machine it has already been raised 104mm, so the operator actually sits 454mm higher than the normal forklift.

The alternative is to drive backwards. Productivity may be affected due to possible operator fatigue in this position for extended periods of time.

Hyster®'s solution to this is to offer operators a swivel seat. This gives 15 ° rotation to the right side and thus can relieve possible strain on the operator's body. The integration of a reversing handle, located on the right rear of the cab, allows the operator to stabilize when turning in this direction. The handle also has a very handy horn button mounted on it, so the operator does not have to take his hands off the steering wheel to press it.

HANDLING MULTIPLE LOADS

Increase production / loading times & amp; unloading by handling twice the amount of product at the same time. Meyer factory options with 2 year warranty / 4000 hours.

The beverage industry is known for its demand for fast loading times, as shipping is costly and loading slots are pre-registered.

To ensure maximum productivity, pallet loads are transferred in groups of two, three or even four at a time. To do this, Hyster® can offer multiple factory-installed load handling attachments at the same time as building the vehicle.

Fully adjustable flow rates via the Hyster® dashboard create a complete truck and attachment match for optimum performance. This reduces the heat generated in the hydraulic oil system, as only the desired amount of oil flow, guided by the component, is used.

Meyer Double Pallet Parts, which are installed during the machine manufacturing process, reduce dealership costs and offer the added advantage of a 2-year / 4000-hour warranty on the part.

There are many options to suit different types of pallets such as Euro, International, Chep / UK or square pallets.

Double Euro-Pallet Management Component with shaft

  • Optimal visibility, above, below and through the component.
  • Made for Heavy Applications.
  • The only system on the market with protected drivers
  • Hardened chrome shafts machined by precision machinery.
  • High-performance shaft bearings for smooth operation without external fork tilt = improved carrying capacity.
  • Synchronized fork movement.
  • Low grease requirement, clean load, clean environment, long wear life.
  • Excellent operating speed.

UK / CHEP / Industrial Double Pallet Management Accessory Profile Guide:

  • The design profile gives unique flexibility.
  • Torsion-resistant steel profiles = Safe transport.
  • Made for Heavy Applications.
  • Optimal visibility, above, below and through the component.
  • Low maintenance requirements. Adjustable base hooks to compensate for upper slip wear.
  • Synchronized fork movement.
  • Adjustable fork opening for optimal pallet support.
  • Flexible use due to Class II interchangeable mounting options & amp; Class III makes this ideal for short-term / fleet rental applications.

Metal Barrels and Metal Barrel Tweezers

But not all metal barrels are transported on pallets. Typically in the UK, 20, 30 and 50 liter barrels are handled with barrel tweezers. This way of handling barrels eliminates the need and cost for pallets when stacking or loading into blocks and can carry up to 18 x 50 liters or 24 x 30 liter barrels at any time.

Waste Management

Hyster® also provides Bolzoni Swivel accessories as a factory-fitted solution, and they benefit from a 2-year / 4000-hour warranty on the accessory.

Different Capacity spins are ideal for collecting waste around the factory, which is then transported to a larger waste bin, where the contents can simply be flipped from above.

Bolzoni Swivel attachments include:

  • Open center and overall dimensions minimized for optimal visibility.
  • Fast high-speed rotational speed for high performance.
  • Rotating forks to support the load when reversed.
  • Quick fork installation / disassembly and repositioning.
  • Requiring easy and low maintenance equals low life cycle costs.
  • Reliable and robust.
  • Very flexible for a range of applications.
  • Various options available.
