Pallet Jack Forklift Systems (PJFS) | Pallet Jack Forklift System (PJFS) eliminates internal pallet lifts and standard pallet jacks. The system lifts the empty pallet into position and automatically lowers as each layer is completed. Each PJFS is plugged into its respective chamber, working together to reduce time. The PJFS saves additional time by not having to move a traditional pallet jack in and out of the stacking chamber. And the PJFS eliminates down time due to internal pallet lift system malfunctions. |
