Project description
To solve the company’s problem, they have proposed to introduce a series of modifications to the electric pallet truck with which they unload the pallets from the lorries.
In the first place, their option has been to put steel shutters on the 2 blades, but due to their great weight, this does not work at all and very dangerous situations can arise in this way.
To avoid this problem, rollers have been installed that allow the pallet to move by sliding on the front of the pallet truck’s blades.
To facilitate this movement, it has been decided to pull the pallet and place a winch to hold it securely.
