Our customers especially appreciate HUBTEX vehicles
when picking goods in narrow aisles, as they can beadapted precisely to the requirements of a warehouse.
When order picking, HUBTEX forklift trucks must meetthe most diverse requirements: Large-volume timber
products, sheets and profiles are transported very
­efficiently and reduce damages to the materials.
The industry expertise offered by HUBTEX makes it­possible, time after time, to develop customer-specificsolutions with special optimisation effects. Innovationand quality are the keys to success for HUBTEX.

REDUCED DAMAGE
TO GOODS,
FEWER BREAKAGESThe use of HUBTEX order picking vehicles
increases the efficiency of long and bulkyloads in narrow aisles. In this process,
HUBTEX follows the principle of bringing
the operator to the goods. This reduces
the amount of work and prevents damage
to the goods.

complete packs and for order picking individual customer orders with a vacuum suction device.
The HUBTEX VK enables individual sheets to be vacuum lifted from the rack compartment andplaced on the fork arms of the lift truck until picking of the order is completed. The completed
customer order pick can then be loaded directly with the lift truck.

As an integrated version, the VK model has atelescopic suction device which is permanently

down for order picking. Alternatively, the truck
can be equipped with a detachable suction
device. This detachable version can also bepicked up by various HUBTEX vehicles withpick-up preparation.

11In order to minimise the aisle width,
the vehicle width can be reduced inline with the largest sheet depth.

12Electric two-sided orderpicking platform
The EZK models see themselves as pure order picking platforms. Whether in the 2-mast
or scissor lift version; the order picking of profiles up to 8 m in length or sheet stock from
600 mm to 2100 mm deep is possible with these lift trucks. The goods can be easily removed
from the rack on both sides of the aisle.
A load shifting device is available as an option for both models to facilitate the removal of thefinished customer order pick with a separate lift truck.

PLATFORMSCISSOR LIFT ORDER PICKING
PLATFORM

The 2-mast version of the HUBTEX
order picking platform is especiallycharacterised by its low platform
height. This results in advantages
for handling the lower rack level.

In contrast to the 2-mast version, the advantageof the scissor lift version is its shorter overall
length. This enables order picking platforms witha scissor lift system to be operated in muchnarrower spaces. Thus the width of the transfer
aisle can be reduced.

SCISSOR LIFT TABLETo ensure the ergonomic order picking of goods,
the HUBTEX order picking platform can be
optionally equipped with a scissor lift table on
the platform.
This allows the stacking height on the truck
to be individually adapted, thus avoiding
unnecessary bending by the operators.

14OPERATION
When operating the vehicle, the customer
can choose between different versions.
The truck can be equipped with one or
two control stations. The version withtwo control stations per vehicle has theadvantage of providing the best possible
overview in each direction of travel. Furthermore, the operator can choose between
two different configurations for the control
station. Standing in the main driving direction
or sitting with a view of the load (only in connection with personal protection equipment).

TELESCOPIC TABLES
HUBTEX two-sided order pickers can be optionally equippedwith telescopic tables for the transfer of the picked order.
This enables a completed package to be passed on toa ­transfer station on both sides of the vehicle.

Two-sided order picker with­vacuum suction device
The transport of high-quality sheet materials
requires maximum precision. This is the only
way in which retailers can ensure that thevaluable materials arrive at their customers
undamaged.

IN COMBINATION WITH THE
TWO-SIDED ORDER PICKING­PLATFORM ...
... in the EZK series, the solution enables­ergonomic removal of the sheets from the rackcompartments. It is no longer necessary foremployees to pull the goods out of the rackcompartment onto the platform – thereby
reducing material damage to a minimum.

EXPANSION BELLOWSSUCTION CUPS
Several expansion bellows
suction cups ensure damage-­
free order picking. If there isdust or other dirt on one of thesheets, it can be removed at
the push of a button with theintegrated air blow off device.

17New and innovative:­laser navigation for­narrow aisles
GUIDANCE VIA LASER NAVIGATION
Object-based laser navigation uses the raw datafrom personal protection scanners or 2D laserscanners. The HUBTEX vehicle control systemcreates maps of the surrounding area basedon the data obtained. The vehicle thenidentifies its own position on the map andis able to follow defined routes with an accuracy of up to +/− 15 mm. The process takes
into account changes in the environment.

18

AUTOMATIC VEHICLE POSITIONINGWMS CONNECTION

Horizontal and vertical vehicle positioning isavailable as an add-on for laser localisation.
The positioning of the rack compartment
is determined by a horizontal and vertical­positioning device and a touch panel in thecabin. Rack positioning is activated once therack position is entered manually into theHUBTEX touch panel. By pressing lift on thejoystick and pressing the accelerator pedal,
the shelf is approached semi-automatically.

The next stage to achieving automatic
vehicle positioning is to connect themultidirectional truck to the Warehouse
Management System (WMS). The target
height for storage/retrieval is transmitted
directly from the WMS to the automatic
vehicle positioning system. The driver
simply has to activate the lift function.
When lifting, the fork automatically stops
at the correct height.

Battery andcharging­technology
Selecting the appropriate battery andcharging technology is key to ensuring
energy and cost-efficient operation.
A wide range of different battery types
and chargers is available for HUBTEX lift
trucks. First of all, we analyse yourapplication and recommend the rightbattery size based on this analysis. In
addition to a wide range of different
lead-acid batteries, all series of ourmultidirectional trucks are also available
with lithium-ion batteries.
