lift truck
A lift truck, also known as a forklift, is a powered machinery used to lift, move, and place heavy loads, typically within warehouses or construction sites. It has forks attached to a hydraulic system that can be raised or lowered to handle pallets, crates, or large items efficiently. Lift trucks help improve productivity and safety by reducing manual lifting and transportation of heavy objects. They come in various sizes and types, including electric, diesel, or gas-powered models, adaptable to different environments and load capacities.
