Cat® NVT man-up turret trucks are perfect for stacking and order picking in very narrow aisles (VNA) and high racking.

Each is fully customised for a precise fit with your warehouse space and the needs of your loads and operators. Superior ergonomics and comfort make operation a pleasure, while powerful performance and low running costs boost profits.

There are five core models with capacities between 1.1 and 1.5 tonnes: NVT11, NVT12, NVT13, NVT14 and NVT15. Two others can be specially requested: NVT20 for unusually heavy loads (up to 2.0 tonnes) and NVT15XL for exceptionally high lifts (up to 19 metres).

The list of options available is very extensive. Examples range from guidance by rail or inductive wire, through systems for weighing, height positioning and speed control, to cabin heating, fans and window combinations. Advanced options like tilting side gates and a tilting control pod make picking operations easier and more productive, while the all-round camera system, active tilting system and semi-automation can improve safety, productivity and accuracy.

  • Low-weight design reduces energy consumption and wear, as well as enhancing performance.
  • Separate proportional valve regulates cabin lowering speed more efficiently, for longer battery runtime, and extends component life.
  • Low centre of gravity and lightweight construction avoid need for load wheel brakes, which would require regular adjustment, servicing, and replacement of worn parts.
  • Adjustable load wheel height allows easy compensation for differences in wear between wheels or if one wheel is damaged, so no need to replace as pairs.
  • Lubrication points improve performance and longevity of all cabin and mast bearings.
  • Large spacing between auxiliary lifting mast bearings reduces deflection, lowers bearing stresses and increases durability.
  • Large, closed wheel arches combine with guide rollers to protect load wheels from damage.
  • Steering chain is adjustable, less sensitive to dirt and much more wear-resistant than the spur gear alternative.
  • Strong steel doors enclose motor compartment, protect internal components – including electronic controls – and open to give easy, uncluttered access for servicing.
  • Rapid fault analysis is possible via LED displays, PC connection or, remotely, through GSM mobile communication, to simplify and speed up repairs and maintenance.
  • Long replacement intervals cut time and material costs for items like mast chains and hydraulic oil.
  • Battery change is quick and easy using a counterbalance lift truck

  • Flexible choice of cabin and chassis dimensions – in small increments – allows perfect fit with different aisles, applications and batteries.
  • Latest AC drive technology generates fast lifting speeds for forks, masts and cabins, with low energy losses.
  • Advanced mast design uses FEM (finite element method) to optimise stability, weight and performance.
  • Duplex mast choices for all lift heights mean faster and more stable performance, lower energy consumption, less maintenance and shorter truck length than with triplex.
  • Triplex mast options include versions without full free lift, for higher speed and lower maintenance.
  • Fork range includes mast swivel and telescopic types suited to different specific applications.

  • Mast-to-chassis struts increase mast rigidity, while low centre of gravity maximises overall truck stability.
  • Clear all-round views are aided by excellent through-mast visibility, angled motor compartment and rounded chassis.
  • Optional tilting side gates open with a flip of the upper bar for easy order picking.
  • Thin front wall allows easy reach to place picked items into container or onto pallet.
  • Spacious and secure cabin features carpeted walls, thickly cushioned floor, high-comfort seat (with weight adjustment) and inbuilt document and equipment holders as standard.
  • Wide range of seating options and accessories includes folding version for choice of standing or sitting operation, with pneumatic spring mechanism for easy switching of console between positions.
  • Choice of operator console styles and layouts is matched to different needs and preferences, enabling easy reach and use of controls (and clear display screen) in all cases

  • Special paint, change of one colour (Standard RAL)
  • Extended or shortened chassis
  • Twin/dual load wheels, minimum chassis width 1450 mm
  • NVT14 with NVT15 chassis, battery up to 5 PzS 700/775 Ah
  • NVT15 with chassis for battery 6 PzS 840/930 Ah, special drive wheel
  • Rail guidance for standard profile, minimum 80 mm profile height
  • Rail guidance, minimum 38 mm profile height
  • Side guide rollers antistatic
  • Additional side guide roller in the centre of truck (3 rollers on each side)
  • Inductive wire guidance 6.25 kHz +/- 30 Hz, 78 mA
  • Line driver for max 1200 m wire, 6.25 kHz
