The rollpallet is used in combination with a forklift gooseneck (GSH), which serves as the connecting element to the forklift truck. The advantage of this transport system is that the load is distributed 1/3 on the forklift truck and 2/3 on the wheels of the rollpallet, thereby effectively tripling the payload capacity of the forklift truck.
Rollpallets are completely variable in use, as they can be both pushed and pulled.
The exchange of two rollpallets can be done without the forklift truck driver needing to exit the vehicle. By setting down the rollpallet and further lowering the GSH, the mechanical connection is automatically released, and the GSH is freed. Picking up another rollpallet to carry out the next transport is just as quick.
The GSH consists of a mounting console for the forks, the gooseneck, and the tongue, which is inserted into the coupling mouth of the rollpallet. The fork tunnels of the console are specifically adapted to predefined fork geometries. For a form-fitting and secure locking between the GSH and the forklift truck, three different variants are offered:
By manually attaching two locking pins, a connection between the GSH and the forklift truck is established.
Through the hydraulic fork adjustment of the forklift truck, the forks are moved within the console behind retaining tabs, thereby forming a connection between the forklift truck and the GSH.
Through a folding mechanism that automatically moves behind the forks, a connection is created between the forklift truck and the GSH.
Conclusion: You can achieve a tripling of the forklift truck’s lifting capacity.
