MPC SERIES The Crown MPC 3000 Series combines the benefits of an order picker with the advantages of a counterbalance forklift. It features a high-lift, clear-view mast with an outrigger-free counterbalance design and an ergonomic ride-on platform; a combination that creates a versatile, multi-purpose lift truck capable of performing tasks usually requiring more than one piece of equipment. It uses the tried-and-tested Crown AC traction motor for reliability and powerful acceleration, and is capable of travelling up to 12.5km/h and lifting 1200 kilograms to a height of 4.3 metres. It can lift full-capacity loads (at a 600mm load centre) to the full height of the mast. The MPC 3000’s layout makes it ideal for order picking as well as replenishing low-level pick slots from high-level storage, an activity that usually requires separate reach trucks and high-lift trucks.

WAV SERIES The Work Assist Vehicle is a revolutionary, mobile productivity tool that allows one person to safely and efficiently accomplish the work of two while travelling twice as fast as the average walking speed. It is capable of working at heights of up to five metres, travelling up to 8 km/h, simultaneously travel and elevate for smoother, more efficient workflows and manoeuvre through tight aisles and doorways as narrow as 80 cm. The Wave load tray supports up to 90kg, while the load deck holds up to 115kg. With its latest version, the Wave 60, Crown has elevated its style and substance with important specification enhancements and fresh aesthetics. The Wave 60’s revisions strengthen its wellknown functionality, which has helped numerous organisations improve workplace safety and productivity levels beyond the capability of ladders.
