Operators have both hands free and do not have to walk as far, bend as often or lift as much as before


Crown has extended its tried-and-tested QuickPick Remote technology with a variant that controls lift and lower functions. Available now for fitment to Crown’s ES 4000 and ET 4000 Series stackers, this version of the remote glove technology features a special transceiver for the stacker’s lift system. Operators can now raise and lower the truck’s forks without having to use its control handle. Consequently they have both hands free and do not have to walk as far, bend as often or lift as much – all


of which help improve productivity by reducing physical strain and operator fatigue. The transceiver communicates with the truck via a receiver mounted on the mast.


A light indicates system status (raising or lowering). By pressing the button operators can position the forks at an ergonomic working height of up to 1.8 metres, making it easier to transfer objects between pallets and shelving. Remote adjustment of the height of the forks can provide an ergonomic aid for


function from raise to lower is effortless while the function is automatically deactivated as soon as operators activate the control handle or climb onto the driver platform; they can continue to operate the truck in the conventional way regardless of whether or not they are using the glove. “With QuickPick Remote Lift Technology Crown has developed yet another highly ergonomic solution that improves safety and efficiency while offering specific benefits and genuine added value in a wide variety of applications,” explains vice president Europe Ken Dufford. Crown’s QuickPick Remote technology


entered the low-level order picking market in 2014 and already been honoured with five prestigious awards, including the IFOY Award (International Forklift Truck of the Year), iF Design Award and German Design Award.
