Small turning radius forklifts are a type of special material handling equipment designed with optimized steering structure, which takes far less space to finish full direction turn than common forklift models. This kind of product usually has compact body size and flexible operation performance, making it suitable for many special working sites that cannot support the operation of standard forklifts. The first typical suited site is the narrow aisle warehouse, which is widely seen in parts storage centers, small e-commerce cargo stations and high-density racking warehouses. Most of these sites keep the aisle width under 2 meters to leave more space for cargo racks, standard forklifts cannot finish steering and pass through the aisle smoothly, while small turning radius forklifts can move freely in such narrow space, complete full processes of cargo picking, stacking and short distance transfer, helping improve space utilization by around 20 percent without extra site reconstruction. The second suited site is the interior of dense arranged production workshops. In many manufacturing workshops, production lines, semi-finished product storage areas and worker operation stations are closely distributed, leaving limited space for logistics equipment to pass. Small turning radius forklifts can adjust direction flexibly to avoid passing pedestrians and surrounding production facilities, deliver raw materials to corresponding work stations accurately, and transfer finished products to temporary storage areas without scratching equipment or goods. The third suited site is the back storage area of small retail stores, such as supermarkets and home product shops. These small storage areas have high cargo placement density and extremely narrow operation space, manual handling takes huge labor cost while standard forklifts can not enter the area for operation. Small turning radius forklifts can finish cargo racking, inventory and transfer work in such limited space effectively, greatly reduce workers' labor intensity. The fourth suited site is the inner space of standard shipping containers. The interior of container is extremely narrow, standard forklifts can not finish direction adjustment inside, small turning radius forklifts can adjust operation angle flexibly, improve the loading and unloading efficiency of container sites obviously.
