Toyota Forklift Part
Toyota Forklift Parts - Ever since 1992, Toyota Material Handling inc., U.S.A., also referred to as TMHU, has been the best selling lift truck provider in the U.S. This company has been based out of Irvine, California for well over 40 years, providing a comprehensive line of quality lift trucks. With a great reputation of resilience and reliability, Toyota lift trucks have thrived in the competitive resources handling market. Quality is the cornerstone of Toyota's renowned 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. are built here.
All Toyota's manufacturing facilities within Canada and the U.S. comply with the International Organization for Standardization or ISO 14001 standard. TIEM has been honored many times for its commitment to constant development, and its environmental methods. It is the first and only manufacturer to offer EPA and CARB-certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift trucks on the market. For example, the Toyota 8-Series IC lift vehicles emit 70% less smog forming emissions than the existing centralized EPA standards and have complied with California's strict emission standards and policies.
Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A. - The Industry Leader
The president of Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A., Brett Wood believes that TMHU's success comes from its dedication to manufacture high quality lift trucks while providing first-rate customer support 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 known as TICO, is listed in Fortune Magazine as the world's largest lift truck supplier and is among the magazines celebrated World's Most Admired Companies.
Redefining Environmental Responsibility
Toyota's parent company, Toyota Industries Corporation, has imparted an outstanding corporate values towards environmental management within Toyota. Toyota's rich history of environmental protection whilst retaining economic viability can not be matched by other corporations and undoubtedly no other resource handling producer 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 producer to provide UL-listed, EPA- and CARB-certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift trucks. Yet another reason they remain a leader within the industry.
Toyota originally released 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 creation is a lift truck that produces 70 percent fewer smog forming emissions than the existing Federal standards tolerate.
Furthermore in 2006, Toyota established a partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation, furthering their dedication to the environment. More than 57,000 trees have been planted in community parks and national forests damaged by ecological reasons such as fires, as a result of this relationship. 10,500 seedlings have also been distributed through Toyota Industrial Equipment's network of sellers to non-profit organizations and local consumers to help sustain communities all over the U.S.
Toyota's lift vehicles provide enhanced efficiency, visibility, ergonomics and durability, and most significantly, the industry's leading safety technology. The company's System of Active Stability, also known as "SAS", helps lessen the risk of incidents and injuries, in addition to increasing productivity levels while minimizing the likelihood of merchandise and equipment breakage.
System Active Stability can discern factors that could lead to lateral instability and likely lateral overturn. When any of these factors have been sensed, the SAS will instantaneously engage the Swing Lock Cylinder to re-stabilize 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 a mishap from a lateral overturn. The Active Mast Function Controller or the Active Control Rear Stabilizer also aids to prevent injuries or accidents while adding stability.
The SAS systems were originally used on the 7-Series internal combustion lift trucks which were put on the market in 1999. These systems helped push Toyota into the lead for industry safety standards. Now, SAS is used on practically every new internal combustion products and is standard equipment for the new 8-Series. There are more than 100,000 SAS-equipped lift trucks in action, exceeding 450 million hours combined. The increased population of SAS-equipped vehicles in the field, along with required worker instruction, overturn fatalities across all models have decreased by 13.6% since 1999. Also, there have been an overall 35.5% decrease in industry wide collisions, loss of control, falls and overturn from a lift vehicle for the same period.
Toyota's hardnosed standards continue far beyond the machinery itself. The company believes in offering general Operator Safety Training programs to help users satisfy and exceed OSHA standard 1910.178. Instruction programs, video lessons and an assortment of materials, covering a wide scope of subjects-from individual safety, to OSHA regulations, to surface and load conditions, are accessible through the seller network.
Ever since the sale of its first lift truck in the U.S. to the manufacture of its 350,000th lift truck produced in 2009 at Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, TMHU has sustained a unbroken presence in the U.S. This fact is demonstrated by the statistic that 99% of Toyota lift trucks sold in America now are manufactured in the United States.
TMHU is situated in Columbus Indiana and houses nearly 1 million square feet of production facilities over 126 acres of land. Facilities include a National Customer Center, as well as manufacturing operations and supply centers for equipment and service parts, with the total investment exceeding $113 million dollars.
The new National Customer Center was conceived to serve both dealers and consumers of TMHU. The facility includes a 360-degree showroom, a presentation theater complete with stadium seating for 32, an section for live product demonstrations with seating capacity for 120; a presentation theater; Toyota's Hall of Fame showcasing Toyota's story since the birth of its originator, Sakichi Toyoda, in 1867, and lastly a instruction center.
