So what makes the D40 special as part of a half

pallet solution?

Size, weight, construction, and technology in short.

Compared to competitive equipment the D40 is both

smaller and lighter for starters, having the same

wheelbase as a manual pallet jack. This makes the

unit very maneuverable in trailers, on lift gates, or in

tight store aisles and warerooms.

With a lower gross weight than traditional units, the

D40 treads lightly on commercial tiles and flooring.

On occasion this can also allow for an extra pallet to

be placed on a delivery truck either to or from a store

location, which transportation folks appreciate.

The construction of the D40 features a narrow 25”

chassis that can go places some equipment simply

cannot access. With the forks configured for half

pallets, an entire load from stem to stern can transit

through doorways with ease, which reduces

damage and reduces delivery time.

The D40s unique clamshell design provides good

weather resistance to internal components and

houses a built in 120v charger making deployment

very simple for new users. Power for an entire day’s

deliveries comes in the form of an AC drive motor

matched to AGM dry cell batteries that are free of

regular maintenance and ensure solid reliability.

The D40 is certainly a great tool for the last move.

With several available options the D40 can be

further tailored to meet the needs of specific types

of deliveries or cover a range of pallet types should

that be required. Product options include:

Multiple fork configurations

Multiple load back rest sizes and types

Load restraints, Tool trays for documents & electronics

Stability casters, Traction tires, Tandem load wheels

A wide range of programming options

Build to suit development and manufacturing

And really it’s about time.

Using the same equipment built for full pallets and

using 40x48 pallets to deliver less than full pallet

loads is just too wasteful given trends in retail. It is

also proving to be too detrimental to top line same

store sales, and has thus gotten the attention of the

C-suite in many organizations.

Given the continuing spread and importance of

new SKUs, keeping from being out-of-stock (OOS)

is increasingly challenging.

When losses in patronage and revenue are

examined, it is clear to many retailers that how

they distribute and what they distribute on is

something they need to look at. Research findings

show that a typical retailer loses about 4 percent of

sales due to having items out-of-stock. [1]
