A turret forklift, often referred to as a turret truck or very narrow aisle (VNA) forklift, is a specialized type of forklift designed for operations in areas with extremely tight aisle spaces, typically less than six feet wide. These forklifts are equipped with a rotating mast or turret that allows the forks to rotate 180 degrees in either direction, enabling the operator to retrieve or deposit pallets without having to reposition the entire vehicle. This capability enhances operational efficiency, particularly in high-density warehouses where maximizing storage space is essential. Turret forklifts are typically guided along the aisles by wire or rail systems, allowing for precise and safe maneuvering. They are often employed in environments where space optimization, speed, and accuracy in picking and placing loads are critical.
