Jungheinrich Launches Next-Gen Pallet Truck for Agile Operations

Jungheinrich has introduced its latest innovation, the AME 18 pallet truck, a powerful yet lightweight solution designed to meet the evolving demands of today’s logistics and material handling industries. Combining compact size with robust performance, the AME 18 is set to be a game-changer for in-house material flows, especially in environments where space is limited and weight sensitivity is crucial.

Key Features of the AME 18:

  • Impressive Load Capacity: The truck can handle up to 1,800 kg, making it ideal for both heavy-duty tasks and confined spaces.

  • Modern Lithium-Ion Technology: The AME 18 uses cutting-edge lithium-ion batteries, ensuring energy efficiency and virtually maintenance-free operation. The truck also supports intermediate charging, allowing for flexible operation during busy shifts.

  • Built-in Charger: With an integrated charger, the AME 18 can be recharged at any standard socket, reducing downtime and increasing flexibility.

  • User-Friendly Design: Featuring intuitive one-handed controls and a reinforced construction, the AME 18 ensures safe and easy operation in daily tasks. A crawl speed button provides enhanced precision in tight areas, while its durable design ensures long-lasting performance.

Developed through a collaboration between Jungheinrich’s teams in Norderstedt, Germany, and Qingpu, China, the AME 18 represents a significant step forward in the company’s pursuit of technological independence and innovation. The truck’s lightweight build and excellent load capacity make it perfect for a range of applications, from retail and production sites to the loading areas of transport vehicles.

With its superior stability, the AME 18 guarantees high safety standards, minimizing risks for personnel, machinery, and goods alike. This truck is not just an efficient tool but a reliable partner for improving productivity and safety in day-to-day logistics operations.

“With the AME 18, we are launching a vehicle that impresses not only with its compact design and robustness but also sets new standards in terms of performance,” says Faruk Gökdurmuş, product manager at Jungheinrich.

“The close collaboration between our teams in Norderstedt and Qingpu has created a product that meets the demands of modern logistics in every respect – flexible, powerful and forward-looking,” adds Faruk Gökdurmuş.

As businesses increasingly demand flexible, space-saving, and high-performance solutions, Jungheinrich’s AME 18 pallet truck delivers exactly that – merging power with portability for the modern supply chain.
