Frequently Asked Questions — VNA Man‑Up Turret Trucks
What is a man‑up turret truck?
A VNA forklift where the operator rises with the carriage, allowing direct pallet access and high‑speed picking in 5–7 ft aisles.
How narrow are aisles for VNA turret trucks?
Most man‑up turret trucks operate in 5–7 ft aisles, depending on pallet size, turret articulation, and lift height.
