Linde has been shortlisted in all four categories of the 2015 FLTA awards.

Named in the Safety and Innovation category sits Linde’s Safety Pilot – a unique electronic driver assistance system helping to keep operators informed of the load weights on the fork arms, current lift height, tilt angle of the fork arms and subsequent load centre and the maximum lift height to which the load can be raised. This is a first in the materials handling industry and from many years of development and testing a credit to our engineering design team to see it come to life!
The new EVO electric counterbalance truck has been identified as a potential winner in the environment category with its optimal use of energy. All driving and lifting parameters are optimised for high efficiency and the highly efficient hydraulic pump reduces energy consumption. The new power module achieves up to 16 percent lower energy consumption compared to the previous series due to integration into the axle. The compact drive axle is also at the heart of the 386’s low energy consumption with an integrated pump motor, shorter power cables to ensure there is no loss of energy, efficient AC motors designed specifically for counterbalance trucks and intelligent cooling systems which automatically adapted to the application.
The tilting barrier on the V Modular range has made the shortlist for the Ergonomics Awards. The titling barrier reduces the clearance between the operator and the load in the racking by 100mm, but the ergonomic design of the barrier allows the operator to reach up to an additional 500mm into the load for better access and reducing stress on the operator.
