Jungheinrich Introduces ETV Series 1 Reach Trucks
Richmond, VA (ContentDesk via ContentDesk Direct) July 17, 2006 -- The Jungheinrich Lift Truck Corp., a world leader in warehouse logistics technology, is announcing a line of highly-efficient mast moving reach trucks -- the ETV Series 1.
The line consists of four trucks:
Models ETV 110, 112, 114 and 116.
Overall, these trucks will provide you with the best solution for the cost effective stacking and retrieval of merchandise even at high lift heights and in confined spaces. Whether handling pallets in a drive-in racking environment, operating in narrow aisles or low rack areas, or working in single- or multi-shift applications, these trucks will get right to work for you.Because they have a particularly compact chassis only 44 inches wide -- Models ETV 110 and 112 are able to work in aisles as narrow as 105 inches and have load capacity ratings of 2,000 and 2,400 lbs. respectively.
Models ETV 114 and 116 have an outer chassis width of 50 inches and have load capacities of 2,800 and 3,200 lbs. respectively.
All Series 1 trucks include a Curve Control feature that limits travel speed and acceleration during cornering to substantially reduce the danger of tip-over.
To promote maximum safety, the trucks offer a mast design that delivers superb load visibility and extremely smooth functioning, with no jerking. The ETV 114/116 lifts heights to 303 inches, but the standard 240 inch mast has a collapsed mast height of only 103 inches.At the heart of ETV Series 1 trucks is Jungheinrichs proprietary 3-phase AC motor technology that powers travel, lift and steering motors.
Three-phase AC offers significant advantages over direct current shunt-wound motors.
For example, it enables stronger acceleration and eliminates hesitation when shifting into reverse. And with no carbon brushes to wear, an AC motor is essentially maintenance-free, keeping the vehicle working longer. The Series 1 trucks efficiently reclaim their kinetic energy during braking and store it in their batteries; as a result, much less time is wasted on recharging.
These trucks will get the job done for you, efficiently moving your merchandise, shift after shift. Ergonomics have been a priority here.
A stress-free driver is a safer driver, and safety pays off in greater productivity and lowered costs. The Series 1 trucks offer a spacious cab with ample legroom and a seat fully adjustable to suit every driver. The steering wheel is also fully adjustable, both horizontally and vertically, and 180? steering mode is standard, with mode 360? optional. Jungheinrichs SOLO-PILOT feature conveniently groups all essential controls in one location -- including controls for load lifting and lowering, travel direction and horn -- with no need for the operator to reach backwards. The operators display shows all information at a glance, including travel direction, wheel position, steering mode, battery status, operating hours and time.
Three adjustable travel programs, selectable on the display, will match the operator to the operation.For more information about the new ETV Series 1 Reach Trucks, contact Jungheinrich Lift Truck Corp., 5701 Eastport Boulevard, Richmond, VA 2323.

A year later my son was born ;My husbands vision of sports and trucks revved around like mad men threw his manly mind.Those dreams were simply that dreams. Little did I know there are lessons for parents to learn about children's toys and who are children will be.My daughter plays with dolls. She plays with clay and gets her hands dirty.
She plays in the dirt, climbs trees and races her trucks around .,he plays kick ball , base ball and can run as fast as any boy.My son plays with trucks and builds with blocks, he colors and plays ps2 and he plays house with my girls rocking babies and feeding them.There was a time my husband would bark to my son "Put down that doll!" until we came to the realization that play is really a child's preparation for real life.

Dog Safety
Summer is coming and more and more people are putting the tops down on their convertibles, letting their dogs get fresh air out of an open automobile window, or letting the dear dog ride in the back of an open pickup truck.This seems like a great idea and dogs do love the wind in their fur; but! It can be a very dangerous thing to allow your dog to do. Cigarettes thrown out of windows, rocks falling from construction trucks, stones being kicked up by cars and blowing sand can all be very harmful to your dogs well being. Your poor pup can land at the vet due to sand or rocks in the eye, or debris in their nose. Dogs in open pick up trucks seldom jump out but could be thrown from a vehicle if it turned suddenly to miss something in the road or if the brakes were to be jammed on quickly. If left in the vehicle when parked, passersby could antagonize your dog and provoke him/her to be nasty or to jump out of the vehicle.
Next time you are inclined to let your dog hang out of a window...
