K, Linde. Very narrow aisle truck

The Linde K-series very narrow aisle (VNA) combi truck with a rising cabin is designed for intensive pallet handling and order picking in high-bay racking warehouses where space and time are critical factors. Powerful drive units allow the truck to travel and lift the load simultaneously, maintaining high speeds even at great lifting heights, while approximately 10 million possible configurations ensure a precise fit for every warehouse. This is one piece of equipment for two tasks: pallet handling and order picking, which reduces fleet size and costs.

Safety

From a platform height of 1.2 m, the electronic side barriers must be closed to protect the operator during all operations at height. The optional personal protection system continuously scans the aisle and stops the truck if people are detected nearby. The Active Stability Control assistant detects floor unevenness between the left and right sides of the aisle and automatically compensates for shocks and vibrations—this enables maximum productivity even on sub-optimal floors.

Key Features:

  • Electronic side barriers from a height of 1.2 m – operator protection
  • Active Stability Control – stability on uneven floors
  • Aisle safety assistant with RFID / barcode technology
  • Personal Protection System (PPS) with laser scanners
  • Linde System Control (LSC) – speed and lift adaptation based on the load
  • Programmable travel and lifting limitations

Ergonomics

The spacious cabin with room for free movement provides a comfortable working environment during long shifts, while the intuitive control panel layout enables maximum throughput with minimal hand movements. Four cabin configurations are available: combi (picking + stacking), seated, cold store (down to –30°C), and increased depth.

Key Features:

  • 4 cabin configurations – including cold store warehouses down to –30°C
  • Adjustable sitting / standing control panel – 3-axis adjustment
  • Reduced vibrations due to cabin isolation
  • Modular mount system for monitors and scanners
  • Convenient multi-button control for both hands

Handling and Performance

The automatic fork cycle function executes three automated movements to deposit or retrieve a pallet at the push of a single button, and the main and auxiliary lifts can be operated simultaneously—this allows high racking heights to be reached in a single step. The warehouse navigation system uses barcodes or RFID tags to independently guide the truck to the target destination, meaning the driver only controls the drive function.

Key Features:

  • Simultaneous travel and lifting – shorter cycle times
  • Automatic fork cycle and synchronization of main/auxiliary lift
  • Warehouse navigation with an RFID / barcode system
  • Linde System Control (LSC) – 4 levels of adaptive control based on load weight
  • Regenerative braking – energy is returned to the battery
  • Modular design with ~10 million configurations

Serviceability

Integrated CAN-bus diagnostics minimize maintenance intervals and allow for quick fault detection. Energy recovery during braking and load lowering reduces energy consumption and extends continuous operating times. The Linde Fleet Management option provides complete fleet visibility—from maintenance planning to access control.

Key Features:

  • CAN-bus diagnostics – faster maintenance, less downtime
  • Regenerative energy recovery
  • Linde Fleet Management – remote fleet control
  • Special variants for cold store warehouses (anti-corrosion coating, special hydraulics)
  • Robust construction – longer operational lifetime
