On a construction site, in the mining or agricultural industry, you cannot do without equipment such as a front loader. This is a ubiquitous machine that belongs to the classification of bucket special equipment. The maneuverable and multi-functional loader can function as an excavator and a bulldozer at the same time.

Features of technology

Front-end loader is a separate type of equipment that is used to perform unloading and loading tasks, as well as earthmoving and transportation operations. These machines are in greatest demand in the agricultural industry, where the equipment is used to transport grain crops, fertilizers and other products. In the cold season, cars are often used to remove snow.

The front loader acts as a self-propelled machine that can perform various functions, depending on the type of working element used:

• loading;
• transportation;
• laying of building materials;
• rise;
• capture, etc.

Often, devices are used to transport bulk, lumpy, granular cargo and perform earthworks. The market offers options for different loaders, which are divided into 4 main types:

• universal lift trucks;
• special purpose models;
• bucket machines;
• mining mini loaders;

When ordering a front-end loader, you should take into account that the main criterion for determining the price is the lifting capacity, as well as the functionality of the equipment.

The modern world market of special equipment used in construction and other work related to the transportation, loading and unloading of goods is represented by manufacturers of loaders, which are divided into four main groups: American manufacturers, European, Japanese and other Asian manufacturers of special equipment.

American manufacturers

American manufacturers are represented by companies such as Yale, Baker, Towmo-tor, Clark and Hyster, which are the oldest pioneers of forklift trucks. True, today the special equipment of these companies is practically absent on the Russian market. Among American forklifts, attention should be paid primarily to Bobkat, Caterpillar and New Holland.

Bobkat telescopic forklifts are manufactured by the company of the same name, which specializes in small-sized equipment. Bobkat loaders are available in five basic models. The company also exposes a wide range of attachments to the market. Due to their compact dimensions, Bobkat loaders are truly versatile and in fact indispensable in cases where it is impossible or difficult to use large-sized special equipment. The main advantages of Bobkat loaders are their versatility, high productivity and the ability to quickly replace attachments.

Caterpillar loaders are manufactured by a corporation renowned for its earthmoving and engineering machinery. With more than four hundred and fifty divisions worldwide, Caterpillar is the leader in terms of product sales today.

New Holland loaders manufactured in Pennsylvania have proven themselves to be reliable and easy to operate. The versatility of New Holland backhoe loaders is manifested in the fact that they can not only do earthmoving, but also effectively solve loading and unloading tasks using a grab or a bucket. New Holland loaders are distinguished by their high lifting capacity and maneuverability, which is taken into account when determining the scope of this equipment.

European manufacturers

European forklift manufacturers are represented primarily by German companies such as Still, Jungheinrich and Linde. True, it is worth noting that due to the widespread distribution of Asian forklifts in the western market for construction and warehouse equipment, the range of sales of German companies' products is not particularly wide at present.

Still loaders are the epitome of German quality. This special equipment is not only very reliable, but also safe to operate. That is why Still loaders enjoy well-deserved popularity and prestige all over the world. In addition, this special equipment is distinguished by a high degree of efficiency and effectively solves the assigned tasks in almost any conditions. Still produces various types of special equipment: stackers, electric forklifts, electric pallet trucks, forklift trucks, etc.

Separately, mention should be made of such loaders as Balkankar, which are well known on the Russian market since the times of the Soviet Union. Today, Bulgarian special equipment is not particularly popular, since it is difficult for it to compete with more eminent manufacturers. Distinctive features of Balkankar forklifts are a cheap spare parts market, well-established repair service and simplicity of design.

Japanese manufacturers

Japanese manufacturers are one of the leaders in the world special equipment market. The products of Japanese companies are distinguished by high operational reliability, a wide range of components and an affordable price. World famous brands such as TCM, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Toyota and Komatsu are at the forefront of Japanese special equipment.

Loaders of the TSM company have proved to be excellent in Russian conditions, they are distinguished by high reliability and efficiency. TSM special equipment is designed to perform a wide range of works, including warehousing and transportation of goods. Among the advantages that distinguish TCM loaders are ease of use, environmental friendliness, optimal price-quality ratio, reliability and maneuverability.

Mitsubishi forklifts have long been popular with customers. A kind of "visiting card" of the Mitsubishi brand is the quality and reliability of products, as well as maximum attention to the needs of the client. Since the corporation adheres to very strict quality standards, Mitsubishi forklifts have virtually one hundred percent reliability, in which simple equipment is an exception to the rule.

Nissan's fifty years of experience in design and manufacture of forklifts has not been wasted. Continuous improvement in technology allows this Japanese company to create superior equipment that is environmentally friendly, easy to operate and maintain. Nissan loaders are comfortable, safe and have a long service life.

The Toyota concern has been producing construction and warehouse special equipment since the sixties of the last century. During this time, Toyota became the leader in the production of forklift trucks, and remains the leader in this area to this day. Thanks to the exclusive production system developed by the company's specialists, Toyota produces special equipment in which it is almost impossible to find flaws. When developing the designs of the loaders, the company's engineers take into account all the nuances that may appear in operation. Toyota products are focused on maximum customer satisfaction, and therefore are a guarantee of quality.

A forklift is the main carrier of goods in factories, warehouses, shops, outdoor areas. With the help of this technique, loading and unloading of wagons and trucks, stacking of heavy objects, containers, equipment, etc. are carried out. Today, thousands of different forklifts work in different sectors of the Russian economy. They differ in a number of ways, from engine to agility. Each production cycle or logistic scheme requires a technique with certain characteristics. Therefore, when choosing the most suitable model, experts recommend paying attention to several points.

1. First of all, it is important to decide on type loader. Today, the driving force for this technology is electric, diesel, petrol and gas engines. The most popular of these are electric forklift trucks and diesel models. And if the element of electric transport is small premises, warehouses and shops, then diesel units are more in demand in open areas and in large factory workshops.
2. The second criterion to look at is lifting capacity... This characteristic depends on the specifics of production. In some cases, the carrying capacity of 1.5-2.0 tons is enough, and sometimes 5-ton monsters turn out to be powerless.
3. Height lifting. When loading and unloading operations, it is often necessary to lift the load very high. Most often, a height of 3 m is sufficient for efficient work. But it happens that the racks are of higher dimensions, and the loader must correspond to them.
4. Work performance is influenced by such an indicator as maneuverability... Models that are able to turn around on a small patch are very much appreciated. It is often better to sacrifice lifting capacity by choosing a nimble and quicker assistant.

Our review includes the best forklift trucks. When compiling the rating, the following criteria were taken into account:

• engine's type;
• technical capabilities;
• price;
• expert opinion;
• consumer reviews.
