The next-generation Raymond® 8910 end rider pallet truck is ideal for heavy-duty and high-throughput applications. This comfortable pallet truck features intuitive, easy-to-use controls and enhanced ergonomics, especially for long hauls.
PK: What was the time span between the idea and development to the finished Raymond 8910 end rider pallet truck?
CK: The Raymond® 8910 end rider pallet jack project took two years to develop and complete. The project was initiated due to the growing trend of customers moving away from end riders and are looking for enclosed rider options. Many customers, competitive and market feedback was gathered to determine the top needs of the redesign such as ergonomics, larger operator compartment and eco-performance.
PK: What applications is the Raymond 8910 suitable for?
CK: Model 8910 is an electric pallet truck designed specifically for heavy-duty, high-throughput, long-haul applications such as food and grocery distribution, manufacturing, warehousing and e-commerce/third-party logistics. Adaptable, scalable and flexible, the 8910 pallet truck can be tailored to specific facilities and applications, including horizontal transport, loading and unloading, cold storage, dock work, and longer runs to pickup and drop-off stations.
PK: What sustainable features distinguish the Raymond 8910 from the Raymond 8000 series?
CK: With the importance of sustainability in the market, sustainable features are factored into the design of the Raymond 8910 pallet truck. Customers have stated that they can now get through an entire shift without changing the battery, resulting in fewer battery change-outs and more uptime. When compared with previous models, the updated Raymond 8910 pallet truck has improved energy efficiency than others in the Raymond 8000 series. When designing the Raymond 8910 pallet truck, the team decided to make the change to electronic power steering. This change accounts for most of the reduced power consumption. As a result of electronic power steering, the Raymond 8910 pallet truck is a much quieter and more energy efficient truck.
