Advantages of VNA’s
- VNA
machines offer three advantages over traditional forklifts when used in
warehouses. These are speed, precision and load space.
- The
aisles in a VNA warehouse are around 1.7m wide, gaining an extra 25% of storage
compared to the equivalent set up for non-VNA warehouses.
- VNA
racking can also be substantially higher, enabling around 50% more storage
compared to a conventional racking system.
- VNA
machines can be fitted with a rail or laser system that is designed to help
them move as quickly as possible even in the narrow aisles. They also have end
of row technology.
