You’ve probably seen Yale forklifts and equipment on
construction sites, in warehouses, and in lumberyards. That’s because Yale is
one of the top forklift brands in Indiana – and the world. According to Modern Materials Handling, in 2014 Yale
had the 4th largest revenue among forklift suppliers,
grossing $2.7 billion in worldwide sales.
So what makes Yale so successful –
and why should you consider them for your forklift needs? It boils down to
three things: their strong product line, efficient manufacturing process, and
customer-based design.
Strong Product Line
Yale has been manufacturing material handling equipment for
over 137 years and is recognized as one of the oldest, most trusted lift truck
manufacturers in the world. They specialize in forklifts and offer a variety of
products across industry lines, and for both small and large businesses. They
sell their equipment and offer servicing and maintenance through their local
dealers such as Tynan. Whether you need a small 2,000 pound lift forklift or a
high-capacity 36,000 pound forklift, Yale has a machine that fits your needs.
Efficient Manufacturers
Yale believes that customer service and satisfaction starts
with the manufacturing process. One of the ways Yale is efficient is with their
demand flow technology. This capability
lets them build products as customers need them and keep production within
strict timetables to service customer demand and keep inventory costs low.
Yale has also passed the stringent quality management system
global certification for ISO9001:2008. This means their manufacturing processes
are customer focused and centered around reducing waste and improving
efficiencies. To retain their certification they have to perform periodic
audits to ensure the highest degree of quality manufacturing. By improving
product quality and reducing manufacturing inefficiencies and waste, they keep
equipment costs lower for their customers.
Customer-Based Product Research & Design
The first place Yale turns to when creating or redesigning
their products is their customers. Their goal is to create products that are
comfortable for their users and improve their work efficiency. They ask for customer
feedback in the research, concept development, and early pilot programs for
their equipment. They make any necessary enhancements to the equipment before
doing a full rollout on new equipment.
Ergonomics are important to Yale. Yale will observe forklift
operators using their equipment to understand how to improve efficiency and
comfort. They also use on-board computers to understand how the machines are
used and can be improved.
