Forklifts are a type of machinery used primarily for moving heavy things. Since the invention of forklifts, workers are able to move materials easily to different locations.

These machines help workers to increase their productivity and eliminate the strain on the body caused by lifting heavy objects. 

Safety

Before the invention of forklifts, many factories and warehouses used a system of ropes, cables and pulleys to move heavy crates, boxes and objects.

This system was very dangerous, and safety for workers greatly increased following the introduction of forklifts.

Workers are trained to operate the forklifts, which are designed to pick up heavy objects.

The objects are moved to the desired location where the machine then sets them back down.
Maneuverability and Load Capacity

Forklifts are one of the smallest drivable pieces of machinery. They are compact enough to fit in relatively small areas and are easily maneuverable to

turn in various directions. Depending on the forklift, many can handle carrying loads up to 35,000 pounds. Smaller forklifts may only have a 3,000 or 5,000 pound

capacity, however.
