The C1.0-1.5 Very Narrow Aisle Truck brochure describes a specialized three-way stacking forklift series designed for high-density storage operations in ultra-narrow warehouse aisles. Built by Hyster, these electric-powered trucks feature a tri-directional movement system with 360° steering capability, enabling precise load handling in confined spaces as narrow as 1.6 meters. The series includes three load capacity variants (1.0–1.5 tons) with a maximum lift height of 14 meters and travel speeds up to 20 km/h. Their compact design combines 9.9 m/min lifting speeds with polyurethane wheels for smooth warehouse floor navigation.

What technical specifications define this truck series?
The C1.0-1.5 series operates on three-dimensional steering mechanics, featuring a unique combination of 6276 kg chassis weight and 80V electric systems. With 4-wheel polyurethane suspension, it achieves 0.9 m minimum aisle operation while maintaining 20 km/h unloaded speed. Pro Tip: Lithium battery compatibility (optional) extends operational time by 30% compared to traditional lead-acid models.

These narrow-aisle champions deliver 9.9 meters per minute vertical lift speeds through dual hydraulic pumps, capable of handling Euro pallets up to 1,500 kg. The trucks employ regenerative braking and automatic speed reduction when lifting—similar to how elevators adjust acceleration with load changes. Thermal sensors in the mast prevent hydraulic fluid overheating during continuous high-frequency stacking operations. Transitionally, while the base model uses conventional brakes, upgraded versions feature electromagnetic disc systems for zero-maintenance performance. For example, the C1.5 variant completes 22–25 full lift cycles per hour in frozen food warehouses at −25°C.
How does the tri-directional steering enhance functionality?
The 360° omni-rotational chassis allows simultaneous lateral and forward movement through articulated rear axles and front wheel vector control. This engineering breakthrough eliminates traditional turning radii—imagine a figure skater pivoting on ice while carrying heavy loads. Battery compartments are strategically offset to maintain stability during sideways travel at 8 km/h.

What environments benefit most from this design?
Optimal for high-bay racking systems in pharmaceutical and e-commerce warehouses requiring >85% space utilization. The pressurized cabin option enables cleanroom compliance (ISO Class 5), while corrosion-resistant coatings permit seafood processing plant operations. Practically speaking, one C1.5 unit can replace three traditional reach trucks in a 50,000-pallet facility.

FAQs
500 operational hours or 6 months for hydraulic checks—whichever comes first. Laser-guided component alignment reduces wear by 40% versus mechanical systems.
Can existing warehouses retrofit for C1.5 trucks?
Requires 3.2m clear ceiling height and reinforced column bases. Conduct floor flatness tests (tolerance < ±3mm/2m) before deployment.
