Toyota Forklift Parts
Toyota Forklift Parts - In the United States, Toyota Materials Handling inc., or TMHU, has been the best selling lift truck supplier since 1992. Proudly celebrating more than 40 years of performance, the Irvine, California established company provides a comprehensive line of quality lift vehicles. Resulting from their reputation of excellence, reliability, and durability, Toyota remains prevalent in this aggressive market. Quality is the foundation of Toyota's notorious Toyota Production System practiced at all manufacturing facilities, including TIEM, which is stands for Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, situated in Columbus, Indiana. The majority of the Toyota lift trucks sold in the U.S.A are built here.
All Toyota machines and components manufactured within North America adhere to the International Organization for Standardization or ISO 14001 standard. The Columbus TIEM plant has been honored on many occasions for its devotion to relentless development and its environmentally friendly systems. It is the first and only manufacturer to offer EPA and CARB-certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift trucks on the market. For instance, the Toyota 8-Series IC lift vehicles emit 70 percent fewer smog forming emissions than the existing centralized EPA standards and have complied with California's strict emission standards and regulations.
TMHU, U.S.A.- Leading the Industry
The president of Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A., Brett Wood believes that TMHU's success comes from its commitment to produce high quality lift vehicles at the same time as providing exceptional customer assistance and service. "We must be able to learn and predict the needs of our customers," said Brett Wood. "As a leader, our success also depends on our ability to address our customers' operational, safety and environmental cost issues." TMHU's parent company, Toyota Industries Corporation, also referred to as TICO, is listed in Fortune Magazine as the world's biggest lift truck dealer and is amongst the magazines prominent World's Most Admired Companies.
New Meaning to Environmental Responsibility
Toyota's parent company, Toyota Industries Corporation, has imparted an excellent company principles towards environmental stewardship within Toyota. Toyota's loaded history of environmental protection whilst retaining economic viability cannot be matched by other corporations and certainly no other resource handling manufacturer can thus far rival Toyota. Environmental accountability is a key aspect of corporate decision making at Toyota and they are proud to be the first and only manufacturer to provide UL-listed, EPA- and CARB-certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift vehicles. Yet an added reason they remain a leader within the industry.
Toyota first launched the 8-Series line of lift trucks in 2006, again exhibiting its leadership and innovation in the industry. Featuring an exclusive emission system that eclipsed both Federal EPA emission standards, and California's more environmentally friendly emission standards. The end product is a lift vehicle that produces 70 percent fewer smog forming emissions than the existing Federal standards allow.
Moreover in 2006, Toyota established a relationship with the Arbor Day Foundation, furthering their commitment to the environment. In excess of 57,000 trees have been planted in local parks and national forests damaged by environmental reasons such as fires, as a product of this relationship. 10,500 seedlings have also been circulated through Toyota Industrial Equipment's system of sellers to non-profit organizations and neighborhood customers to help sustain communities all over the U.S.
Toyota's lift vehicles provide improved efficiency, visibility, ergonomics and durability, and most significantly, the industry's leading safety technology. The company's System of Active Stability, also referred to as "SAS", helps limit the chance of mishaps and accidental injuries, in addition to increasing productivity levels while minimizing the likelihood of merchandise and equipment damage.
System Active Stability senses several elements that could lead to lateral insecurity and likely lateral overturn. When one of those conditions are detected, SAS immediately engages the Swing Lock Cylinder to steady the rear axle. This changes the lift truck's stability footprint from triangular in shape to rectangular, providing a major increase in stability which substantially reduces the likelihood of an accident from a lateral overturn. The Active Mast Function Controller or the Active Control Rear Stabilizer also helps to avoid injuries or accidents while adding durability.
The SAS systems were originally adopted on the 7-Series internal combustion lift trucks which were put on the market in 1999. These systems helped drive Toyota into the lead for industry safety standards. Now, SAS is utilized on almost every new internal combustion models and is standard equipment for the new 8-Series. There are more than 100,000 SAS-equipped lift trucks in operation, exceeding 450 million hours combined. The increased population of SAS-equipped trucks in the field, along with compulsory worker training, overturn fatalities across all brands have decreased by 13.6% since 1999. Furthermore, there have been an overall 35.5% decrease in industry wide collisions, loss of control, falls and tip overs from a lift truck for the same period.
Toyota's hardnosed values reach far beyond the machinery itself. The company believes in providing extensive Operator Safety Training services to help clients meet and exceed OSHA standard 1910.178. Training services, video tutorials and an assortment of resources, covering a wide scope of topics-from personal safety, to OSHA rules, to surface and cargo situations, are accessible through the vendor network.
Ever since the transaction of its first lift truck in the U.S. to the construction of its 350,000th lift vehicle produced in 2009 at Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, TMHU has maintained a unbroken existence in the U.S. This fact is demonstrated by the statistic that 99% of Toyota lift trucks bought in America today are built in the United States.
