Airtight windows coupled with electronically controlled twin heaters and fans, plus five adjustable air vents, keep the cabin interior warm and comfortable. Quick defrosting is achieved through heated windows and electric wipers with intermittent, low and high settings. Through the large, scratch-resistant windows, operators can easily view the fork tips and load through a clear visibility mast. The design of the cold store cabin is based around the operator and considers visibility from every angle, which is important in cold storage applications where pedestrians and other operators may not see or hear as well. We’ve designed and built a reach truck that makes it easier for operators to work comfortably and continually through their entire shift.” With temperatures as low as minus-20 Fahrenheit, operators need to warm up on a regular basis, sometimes for as much as 15 minutes every hour. “Working in a freezer application for an entire shift can be a bone-chilling experience for many operators. “The application challenges of low temperature environments impact both the operator and productivity,” said Maria Schwieterman, product manager, Crown Equipment. The truck also features Crown’s exclusive Access 1 2 3 Comprehensive System Control, which allows the advanced AC technology to deliver power and handling matched to the needs of the operator and specific application. The truck’s cold store cabin is completely integrated into the truck to provide optimal comfort and performance. The Crown SR 5000 moving mast reach truck is designed to lessen the impact of the cold conditions and ensure optimum reach truck performance, energy savings and minimal maintenance in cold temperature environments. The truck is designed as a perfect fit for food and beverage applications where lift heights up to 450 inches are often required. The Crown SR 5000 features a cold store cabin that allows operators to remain productive in harsh environments where temperatures can reach as low as minus-20 degrees Fahrenheit. In addition to the GOOD DESIGN™ Award, the Crown RM 6000 has been recognized with a Gold International Design Excellence Award (IDEA) and Core 77 Design Award.Crown Equipment Corporation, one of the world’s leading forklift manufacturers, today introduced the Crown SR 5000 Series moving-mast reach truck for cold-storage environments. The truck’s superior visibility allows operators to work at optimal levels of efficiency, which in turn generates increased warehouse productivity, according to Tim Forlow, marketing product manager, Crown Equipment.Īccording to The Chicago Athenaeum, the museum received submissions from several thousand of the world’s leading manufacturers and industrial and graphic design firms “representing the most important and critical mass of influential corporations worldwide in the design industry from more than 48 countries.” The Crown RM 6000’s innovative variable side stance positions the operator for maximum effectiveness and forward/reverse visibility during travel and load handling functions. Reduced mast sway and twisting results in less time waiting for the mast to steady and more time moving loads. Elevated load sway is minimized through the use of a closed cross-section mast construction. The truck also features a MonoLift® mast, which Crown’s design and engineering teams created to combine advances in truck geometry and mast rigidity and offer more load capacity at height. It is equipped with forks that travel upward at a pace of 160 feet per minute. Selected as a winner in the industrial category for outstanding aesthetics and innovative design, Crown’s RM 6000 is the industry’s first pantograph reach truck that can reach 505 inches and deliver up to 1,000 pounds more capacity at height.
