1,200 kg at 550 mm load centre
Lift Height
3,000–6,000 mm
MC12/16 is a stand-on electric VNA forklift range for full-pallet storage in high-density warehouses. MC12 handles 1,200 kg with lift heights up to 9,000 mm, while MC16 handles 1,600 kg and reaches 10,000 mm. Electric three-way forks and guided aisle configurations support controlled pallet handling in restricted warehouse aisles.
Ideal For
- Medium- and high-level full-pallet VNA storage
- High-density racking with aisles from 1,500 mm
- Repetitive pallet put-away and retrieval using guided aisles
Product Highlights
Responsive steering supports accurate maneuvering and easy positioning in narrow aisles.

Product Description
Stand-on VNA Forklift Range
The MiMA MC12/16 range combines a compact stand-on platform with full-pallet VNA handling. MC12 provides a 1,200 kg rating for medium-duty applications, while MC16 increases capacity to 1,600 kg for heavier pallet loads.
Electric Three-Way Fork
The electrically driven fork rotates and side-shifts to stack on either side without turning the truck. Linked rotation and side-shift control, fork centring and proportional hydraulics support accurate positioning inside the aisle.
High-Lift Mast Configurations
Duplex models reach 6,000 mm. Triplex full-free models extend the range to 9,000 mm on MC12SQ and 10,000 mm on MC16SQ. Residual capacity decreases as lift height and load centre increase, so the load chart must be checked.
Navigation and Aisle Assistance
Mechanical guide rail, permanent-magnetic and electromagnetic guidance configurations are available. Depending on specification, the truck can also be equipped with automatic aisle entry, end-of-aisle speed reduction, height preselection and fork-camera assistance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the difference between MC12 and MC16?
MC12 is rated at 1,200 kg with a 550 mm load centre and reaches up to 9,000 mm. MC16 is rated at 1,600 kg with a 600 mm load centre and reaches up to 10,000 mm.
Q2: What is the minimum aisle width?
For a 1,100 × 1,100 mm pallet, MC12 can operate from 1,500 mm with mechanical guidance or 1,550 mm with magnetic guidance. MC16 requires approximately 1,600 mm or 1,650 mm respectively. Different pallet dimensions require recalculation.
Q3: Can the trucks lift their full rated capacity to maximum height?
No. At the specified load centre, MC12 retains 1,200 kg up to 5,500 mm and approximately 650 kg at 9,000 mm. MC16 retains 1,600 kg up to 5,000 mm and approximately 600 kg at 10,000 mm.
Q4: How much main-aisle space is required?
MC12 requires approximately 3,700 mm for mechanical or manually entered magnetic guidance and 4,200 mm for automatic magnetic aisle entry. MC16 requires approximately 3,800 mm and 4,300 mm respectively, including the datasheet safety clearance.
Q5: When should a triplex full-free mast be selected?
Select MC12SQ or MC16SQ when the required lift height exceeds 6,000 mm, when a lower closed-mast height is needed or when the truck must operate beneath restricted overhead clearances.
Q6: Which guidance systems are available?
Mechanical guide rail provides physical alignment in dedicated VNA aisles. Permanent-magnetic and electromagnetic guidance options reduce contact with guide rails and may support automatic aisle entry and additional aisle safety functions.
Q7: Are MC12/16 suitable for long operating shifts?
The stand-on layout supports frequent entry and exit during repetitive put-away and retrieval work. For applications involving prolonged uninterrupted travel, the operating cycle and operator requirements should be reviewed against a seated VNA model.
Q8: Which batteries are available?
MC12 uses a 48 V / 390 Ah lead-acid battery as standard, while MC16 uses a 48 V / 480 Ah lead-acid battery. Both ranges can be configured with 48 V / 300 Ah or 400 Ah lithium batteries.
Q9: What information should a dealer confirm before quotation?
Confirm the maximum load, load centre, pallet dimensions, lift height, residual-capacity requirement, rack layout, working and main aisles, floor condition, guidance method, charging arrangement and expected daily throughput.
