EKS 208/308 Order Picker


Capacity 2,200 - 3,000 lbs.

3-phase AC technology delivers high performance and increased energy efficiency

High flexibility through modular lift truck design and RFID technology

Ergonomic operator compartment with height adjustable operator controls

Optional lift truck warehouse navigation system for customized travel time to a specific destination

The EKS 208/308 order pickers offer high picking performance in high-rack warehouse applications. Both lift truck concepts are customized for their respective applications. With load capacities up to 2,200 lbs. and order picking heights up to 236 inches, the EKS 208 order picker is specially designed for flexibility in wide aisles. However, its narrow chassis size of just 35.5 inches in width offers maximum maneuverability in very narrow aisles as well. The EKS 308 with 3,000 lbs. load capacity and order picking heights up to 402 inches offers high throughput performance. Both order pickers set new standards in respect to flexibility, energy efficiency and ergonomics.

 

The Jungheinrich Warehouse Navigation system can be used with all rail or wire guided very narrow aisle lift trucks. Learn more about warehouse navigation here.
