Doosan expands warehouse range

Two tonne capacity low level order picker available from March

Due to increased demand and improvements at its Germany production facility, Doosan's range of warehouse equipment has been extended.

The company says: "A world leader in equipment design, construction and power sectors Doosan has already enjoyed success with its existing warehouse product range which includes 16 different machines.With the ambition to enter new markets and become recognised as a serious player, Doosan believes it now has the opportunity to provide greater productivity and value for new clients with its complete range of products." One example of the new range is the 2 tonne capacity low level order picker, the LEKH20. Available in the UK from March, the LEKH20 will complement the existing range of pedestrian stackers, pedestrian and ride on pallet trucks, reach trucks, air cargo handling systems and scissor lift machines.

Paul Watson, DIUK general sales manager explains further: "The extension of our warehouse equipment is a big step for Doosan. Introducing new equipment, like the LEKH20 gives us the ability to cater for those customers that wanted to deal with us before, but were unable to due to us not having the necessary equipment. "This transformation into a full production facility gives us the ability to be recognised in new markets while sticking to the Doosan ethos of developing simple, powerful products that combine superb performance with great value." As well as introducing several new products to the range, Doosan's latest Ride on Powered Pallet Truck, the LEDH20MP has been nominated for an FLTA Award for its speed control.

The safe operational speed of a powered pallet truck can vary depending on the type of movement being undertaken.With this in mind, Doosan developed a programmable system for the LEDH20MP, which auto controls the speed while cornering.
