In modern logistics, warehouse space is the most expensive asset. Our Very Narrow Aisle (VNA) Forklifts are specifically engineered to help you store more in less space. By reducing operating aisle widths to as little as 1.6 meters , these specialized trucks allow you to convert wasted aisle space into productive racking areas, increasing storage capacity by up to 50% without expanding your building footprint .
Whether you need a man-up turret truck for case picking at height or an articulated forklift for versatile indoor/outdoor operation, our VNA series offers the perfect solution for high-density warehouses, cold storage facilities, and distribution centers.

| Type | Operator Position | Best Application | Aisle Width |
|---|---|---|---|
| Turret Truck | Man-Up or Man-Down | High-bay pallet stacking & order picking | From 1.6 m |
| Articulated Forklift | Seated | Combined indoor/outdoor, multi-purpose use | From 1.9 m |
| Three-Way Stacker | Man-Up | Very narrow aisle, 180° fork rotation | From 1.6 m |
Traditional forklifts require 3-4 meter aisles, wasting valuable floor space. Our VNA trucks feature articulated frames or rotating turret heads that allow pallet handling on both sides of the aisle without turning the truck body. This technology enables operation in aisles as narrow as 1.6 meters , increasing racking density and potentially boosting storage capacity by 40-50% .
Man-Up (Operator Rising) Turret Trucks: The operator cab ascends with the forks, providing perfect visibility for both pallet stacking and case picking at heights exceeding 12 meters. Ideal for mixed-use warehouses where operators need to pick individual items from high racks .
Man-Down VNA Trucks: The operator remains at floor level, offering higher travel speeds and maximum productivity for pure pallet-in/pallet-out operations .
Unlike traditional VNA trucks that are confined to guided aisles, our articulated VNA forklifts can work both inside and outside the warehouse. They can unload trucks in the yard, transport loads through standard doorways, and enter very narrow aisles for high-bay storage—all with a single machine. This eliminates double handling and saves labor costs .
High-Efficiency AC Motors: Our trucks feature advanced AC drive systems (up to 19.5 kW) for smooth acceleration, regenerative braking, and lower energy consumption .
Lithium-Ion Battery Options: Fast opportunity charging, zero maintenance, and longer cycle life compared to traditional lead-acid batteries. Perfect for multi-shift operations .
Proportional Lift Control: Enables precise load positioning at height, reducing product and rack damage .
Ergonomic Cab Design: Fully adjustable seats/armrests, intuitive joystick controls, and excellent visibility reduce operator fatigue during long shifts .
Camera Monitor System: Provides clear view of forks and load beams at maximum lift heights, eliminating blind spots .
To achieve the narrowest possible aisles, VNA trucks typically operate with guidance systems:
Wire Guidance: Embedded wire in the floor guides the truck precisely through the aisle .
Rail Guidance: Side guide rollers run along floor-mounted rails for perfect alignment .
Magnetic/Optical Guidance: Flexible alternative for retrofitted warehouses.
