BKT’s response to forklift challenges in logistics and industrial settings has a name: MAGLIFT
The tire from the Indian multinational has brought revolutionary change to the industrial sector by means of its perfect balance of durability, efficiency, and operator comfort
The realm of forklift tires and material handling applications is constantly evolving, driven by the more and more demanding requirements of modern industrial environments. Just like factories, warehouses and logistics facilities have been evolving through automation, forklifts and their components are in the process of a similar technological revolution.
It is against this backdrop that new requirements are emerging, starting from the use of latest-generation materials: Not only do these offer greater durability and wear resistance, but also superior heat resistance – thus enabling tires to withstand even the harshest conditions, which are typical in industrial environments. The result? A significant reduction in replacement and maintenance operations, improving hence the overall reliability of material handling operations.
The tire design has been specifically conceived for providing low rolling resistance. Another step forward in improving operating performance, especially when it comes to electric forklifts’ energy efficiency. Since there is an increasingly strong emphasis on energy conservation, tires providing low rolling resistance help reduce energy consumption, prolonging battery life and boosting the operational efficiency of these vehicles.
Extra load capacity is another emerging industry need: as material handling operations increase, it is vital that tires can support heavier loads without compromising stability or safety. In the light of these trends that are shaping the industry, BKT’S role as a leading Off-Highway tire manufacturer becomes evident. BKT tires are, indeed, the result of a precise development making sure that forklifts perform well in high-intensity environments, so that heavy materials can be lifted and transported with ease and in full safety.
In addition, improved operator comfort by means of an ergonomic design that reduces vibration and improves shock absorbing contributes to a safer and more efficient operating environment while increasing productivity.
In this context, the BKT MAGLIFT tire range is an innovative and groundbreaking response to current industry needs. Designed for heavy-duty operations in the industrial and logistics sectors, MAGLIFT ensures superior performance and is ideal for high-intensity logistics hubs.
By using advanced materials and compounds, these tires provide increased durability, wear and heat resistance, reducing the frequency of replacements while improving operational reliability. Moreover, the low rolling resistance provided by MAGLIFT tires is vital to improving energy efficiency, especially in electric forklifts, by reducing energy consumption and extending the battery life.
The increased load capacity of MAGLIFT tires has been developed as a response to increased operational demands, enabling the lifting and transportation of heavier loads without compromising stability and safety.
This is essential for forklifts operating in environments where lifting and transporting heavy materials is a daily requirement. Besides, ergonomic design and comfort are key elements: MAGLIFT offers improved shock absorption and vibration reduction, minimizing operator fatigue and enhancing productivity.
On the rise of electric and autonomous forklifts, the design of MAGLIFT tires is continuously evolving to meet specific load and performance needs. Tires that are optimized for these industrial vehicles ensure compatibility with all latest technologies, contributing to operational efficiency and sustainability.
At the same time, the MAGLIFT product range is positioned among the most affordable solutions, suitable even for reconditioned used trucks or forklifts operating just a few hours a day, meeting all requirements in terms of environment and sustainability.
Technological progress and the evolving forklift tire design are transforming the material handling industry. More durable, efficient and comfortable tires meet the needs of modern industrial environments, ensuring safer, more reliable and energy-efficient operations. In a nutshell, MAGLIFT is a versatile solution that provides great stability, lifting performance and driver comfort, as well as being fully compatible with electric drives, thus contributing to significant energy savings.
