Toyota Forklift Part
Toyota Forklift Parts - In the U.S., Toyota Materials Handling inc., or TMHU, has been the best selling lift truck dealer since 1992. Proudly celebrating more than 40 years of service, the Irvine, California established company presents a complete line of quality lift trucks. Thanks to their reputation of superiority, reliability, and sturdiness, Toyota remains popular in this competitive market. Quality is the keystone of Toyota's notorious Toyota Production System practiced at all manufacturing facilities, including TIEM, which is stands for Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, located in Columbus, Indiana. The majority of the Toyota lift trucks sold in the U.S. are built here.

The Columbus TIEM plant has been honored on many occasions for its devotion to continual development and its environmentally friendly systems. It is the first and only producer 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 percent less smog forming emissions than the existing federal EPA standards and have complied with California's strict emission standards and regulations.
Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A. - The Industry Leader
Brett Wood, President of TMHU, links Toyota's success to its stout dedication to manufacture the best quality lift trucks at the same time as delivering the utmost customer service and assistance. "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, often known as TICO, is listed in Fortune Magazine as the world's principal lift truck supplier and is amongst the magazines prestigious World's Most Admired Companies.
New Meaning to Environmental Responsibility
Toyota's parent company, Toyota Industries Corporation, has imparted an excellent company values towards environmental management within Toyota. Toyota's loaded history of environmental protection whilst retaining economic viability can not be matched by other organizations and undoubtedly no other materials handling producer can thus far rival Toyota. Environmental responsibility is a fundamental feature of corporate decision making at Toyota and they are proud to be the first and only manufacturer to provide UL-listed, EPA - and CARB -certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift vehicles. Yet an added reason they remain a leader within the industry.
In 2006, Toyota introduced the 8-Series line. The 8-Series signifies both Toyota's innovation and leadership in the industry. It features an exclusive emission system that surpasses Federal EPA emission principles, and also meets California's more intricate 2010 emission standards. The end product is a lift truck that creates 70 percent fewer smog forming emissions than the present Federal standards tolerate.
Also starting in 2006, jointly with the Arbor Day Foundation, Toyota added to its commitment to the natural environment. To this day more than 58,000 trees have been embedded in the ground throughout state forests and local parks that were damaged by fires and other ecological causes. 10,500 seedlings have also been circulated through Toyota Industrial Equipment's network of dealers to non-profit organizations and local customers to help sustain communities all over the United States
Toyota's lift vehicles offer better productivity, visibility, ergonomics and resilience, and most significantly, the industry's leading safety technology. The company's System of Active Stability, also referred to as "SAS", helps lessen the chance of mishaps and injuries, in addition to increasing productivity levels while minimizing the potential for product and equipment damage.
System Active Stability can sense circumstances that might lead to lateral instability and potential lateral overturn. When one of these factors have been sensed, the SAS will instantaneously engage the Swing Lock Cylinder to re-stabilize the rear axle. This alters 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 helps to avoid injuries or accidents while adding stability.
The SAS systems were originally adopted on the 7-Series internal combustion lift vehicles which were put on the market in 1999. These systems helped propel Toyota into the lead for industry safety standards. Now, SAS is utilized on virtually every modern internal combustion models and is standard equipment for the new 8-Series. There are more than 100,000 SAS-equipped lift vehicles in operation, exceeding 450 million hours combined. The increased population of SAS-equipped vehicles in the field, along with obligatory operator education, overturn fatalities across all designs have decreased by 13.6% since 1999. Furthermore, there have been an overall 35.5% decrease in industry wide collisions, loss of control, falls and overturn from a lift truck for the same period.
Toyota's rigid standards extend far beyond the technology itself. The company believes in offering general Operator Safety Training courses to help customers meet and exceed OSHA standard 1910.178. Education services, video lessons and various materials, covering a wide scope of subjects-from individual safety, to OSHA policies, to surface and load situations, are offered through the supplier network.
Toyota has sustained a continuous existence in the United States ever since its first sale. In 2009, Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, created its 350,000th lift vehicle. This fact is demonstrated by the statistic that 99% of Toyota lift trucks sold in America now are manufactured in the United States.
Situated in Columbus, Ind., the Toyota Industrial Equipment Mfg. campus equals 998,000 square feet of facilities spanning 126 acres. Facilities include a National Customer Center, as well as production operations and distribution centers for equipment and service components, with the total investment exceeding $113 million dollars.
