What Is an Electric Articulated Forklift?

One truck for pallet transfer and narrow-aisle stacking

An electric articulated forklift combines counterbalance-style pallet transport with narrow-aisle warehouse stacking. Instead of turning the complete truck at the rack face, its mast assembly pivots toward the load, allowing the chassis to remain largely within the aisle. This reduces stacking-aisle requirements while retaining the ability to collect pallets from suitable outdoor areas, pass through warehouse doorways and place them directly into high racking. MiMA offers 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0-tonne models with lift heights up to 12.5 metres, including narrow-body, rear-drive and heavy-duty configurations for different warehouse layouts and handling cycles.

Designed for Flexible Narrow-Aisle Handling

Articulated mast movement combines compact aisle operation, high-level stacking and pallet transfer in one electric truck.

Articulated Mast Design

The mast turns toward either side of the racking, reducing the space required to position pallets without rotating the complete truck.

One Truck from Yard to Rack

Collect, transport and stack pallets with one truck in suitable indoor-outdoor applications, reducing transfers between separate machines.

High-Level Stacking

Triple- and quad-mast configurations support medium- and high-rack storage, with selected MJ20 versions lifting up to 12.5 metres.

Multiple Chassis Options

Choose narrow-body, wide-body, rear-drive or heavy-duty formats according to aisle width, lift height, residual capacity and load weight.

How to choose: Choose MJ20 when lift height and narrow- or wide-body flexibility are the priorities. Select MJD25 for 2.5-tonne handling, tighter cross-fork aisles, lower closed mast height or suitable container work. Choose MJ30 for 3.0-tonne ground-level capacity and heavier transfer-and-stacking applications.

*Minimum aisle figures depend on the stated pallet size and orientation. Rack-to-rack width, residual capacity and outdoor suitability must be confirmed against pallet dimensions, load centre, lift height, mast, attachments, floor condition, gradients and the complete travel route. MiMA Thailand will confirm the final specification after reviewing your application.

Match the Truck to the Warehouse and Travel Route

An articulated forklift should be selected around the pallet, rack layout, aisle width, outdoor route and required lift performance.

  • Maximum load, load centre and pallet orientation
  • Clear stacking aisle and rack-to-rack width
  • Top rack height and required lift height
  • Residual capacity at the maximum operating height
  • Doorways, containers, ramps and transfer distance
  • Floor condition, battery and daily operating hours

MiMA Thailand can review your warehouse drawing and operating data before recommending the model, body, mast and battery configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Electric Articulated Forklift?

It is an electric forklift with a mast assembly that pivots toward the rack. This lets the truck stack in narrower aisles while retaining pallet transport and loading capability.

How narrow can the operating aisle be?

MJD25 can work from approximately 1,700 mm with the specified cross-fork pallet arrangement. MJ20 starts from approximately 1,900 mm in narrow-body form, while MJ30 starts from approximately 2,300 mm. Final clearance depends on the pallet and rack layout.

Can one truck handle transfer and narrow-aisle stacking?

Yes. In suitable applications, an articulated forklift can collect or transport pallets and then place them directly into narrow-aisle racking, reducing transfers between separate trucks.

What is the difference between MJ20, MJD25 and MJ30?

MJ20 is a flexible 2.0-tonne model with narrow- and wide-body versions and the highest lift option. MJD25 is a 2.5-tonne rear-drive model with a low-profile quad mast. MJ30 increases rated capacity to 3.0 tonnes for heavier loads.

Can these forklifts work outdoors?

They can travel on suitable prepared outdoor surfaces before continuing indoors. Gradients, joints, drainage channels, wet conditions, door transitions and travel distance must be reviewed during model selection.

Does rated capacity apply at maximum lift height?

No. Residual capacity reduces with lift height and can change with the load centre, mast, attachment and pallet dimensions. The applicable load chart must be checked for the required rack level.

What information is needed for model selection?

Please provide the maximum load, load centre, pallet dimensions and orientation, lift height, clear aisle and rack spacing, doorway or container clearances, floor conditions, gradients, transfer route and daily operating hours.
