Research on forklift system / Mohd Khairul Adha Rosli and Mohd. Fairuz Farhan Jamaluddin
A forklift truck is a kind of machine that is used for moving, stacking and unstacking goods carried on wooden pallets or platforms that can be scooped up on the lifting fork. Forklift trucks can be seen in warehouses, factories, hypermarket, airports and seaport. Most of the lifting machines or dev...
