Designed for High-Level VNA Operations
A man-up turret truck combines high-rack access, precise pallet handling and order picking in one very narrow aisle solution.
Operator Rises with the Load
The elevating cabin lifts the operator with the load — a clear view at height means more accurate placement and less racking damage.
Turret Fork Operation
The fork carriage rotates 180° to handle pallets on both sides of the aisle — no turning, no turning radius needed.
Higher Storage Density
Narrower aisles and higher racking add up to 25–50% more pallet positions — within the same warehouse footprint.
High-Level Order Picking
Pick individual items, not just full pallets — order picking and stock checks at elevated rack positions.
Which Model Is Right for You?
Compare the three man-up turret trucks at a glance.
| Spec | MCC12 | MCC14 | MCC16 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capacity | 1,200 kg | 1,400 kg | 1,600 kg |
| Max. main lift | 10,000 mm | 12,500 mm | 12,500 mm |
| Max. auxiliary lift | 2,500 mm | 2,500 mm | 2,500 mm |
| Min. stacking aisle | 1,650 mm* | 1,650 mm* | 1,650 mm* |
| Operating environment | Ambient | Cold store: −25°C to +5°C | Ambient |
| Model positioning | Compact 1.2 t man-up VNA | Cold-store man-up VNA | 1.6 t man-up VNA |
| Best for | Compact high-density storage | Frozen and chilled warehouses | Higher-capacity VNA handling |
How to choose: Choose MCC12 for loads up to 1,200 kg and main lift requirements up to 10 m. Select MCC14 for cold-store operation from −25°C to +5°C. For 1,600 kg applications, the MCC16 is the higher-capacity option—choose the mast, operator platform and configuration that fit your project.
Main lift and auxiliary lift are separate specifications and should not be added together when determining rack height. *The final stacking aisle depends on pallet dimensions, load centre, guidance system, safety clearances and project configuration. MiMA Thailand will confirm the final specification after reviewing your application.
Match the Truck to the Warehouse
Man-up turret trucks are selected as part of a complete VNA project. The correct configuration depends on the warehouse layout, load and operating process.
- Aisle width and rack height
- Pallet dimensions and load weight
- Required lift height and picking workflow
- Floor flatness and aisle guidance system
- Battery, charging and operating hours
MiMA Thailand can review your layout and operating requirements before recommending a model and configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Man-Up Turret Truck used for?
It is used for high-level pallet handling and order picking in very narrow aisle warehouses. The operator cabin rises with the load for better visibility at elevated rack positions.
How narrow can the aisle be?
Man-up turret trucks operate in very narrow aisles — typically from 1.6 m wide. The exact minimum depends on your pallet size, racking and guidance system. We run a site survey to confirm the right aisle width and layout for your warehouse.
Can a man-up turret truck work in a cold store?
Yes — the MCC14 is built for cold-store duty down to −25°C with sealed, cold-rated components. Our ambient models (MCC12, MCC16) are not freezer-rated and are intended for standard-temperature warehouses.
Do you keep stock locally in Thailand?
Yes. Popular configurations are held at our 600㎡ facility in Samut Prakan, with 48-hour spare-parts dispatch and on-site response. That means shorter lead times and faster support than importing to order.
Does the warehouse need special planning?
Yes. Aisle width, rack height, pallet size, floor condition, guidance system and workflow must be reviewed together before the truck is specified.
What information is needed for model selection?
Please provide your warehouse drawing, aisle width, rack height, pallet dimensions, load weight, required lift height and daily operating hours.
How is it different from a 3-way pallet stacker?
Both operate in very narrow aisles, but a man-up turret truck raises the operator with the load. It is therefore better suited to high-level picking, checking and precise pallet positioning.
