Toyota Forklift Part
Toyota Forklift Parts - In the United States, Toyota Materials Handling inc., or TMHU, continues to be the top selling lift truck dealer since 1992. Proudly celebrating more than 40 years of performance, the Irvine, California based company provides a complete line of quality lift vehicles. Attributable to their status of excellence, reliability, and resilience, Toyota remains popular in this aggressive market. Quality is the keystone of Toyota's renowned Toyota Production System practiced at all manufacturing facilities, including TIEM, which is stands for Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, located in Columbus, Indiana. The bulk of the Toyota lift trucks sold in the U.S. are built here.
All Toyota's manufacturing plants within Canada and the United States comply with the International Organization for Standardization or ISO 14001 standard. TIEM has been honored many times for its commitment to continual improvement, and its environmental systems. It is the first and only maker to offer EPA and CARB-certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift trucks on the market. To illustrate, 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 policies.
TMHU, U.S.A.- Leading the Industry
The head of Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A., Brett Wood believes that TMHU's achievement comes from its commitment to create high quality lift vehicles at the same time as offering exceptional 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 referred to as TICO, is listed in Fortune Magazine as the world's biggest lift truck provider and is among the magazines celebrated World's Most Admired Companies.
New Meaning to Environmental Responsibility
Toyota Industries Corporation, as the parent company, has instilled a rich corporate doctrine of environmental stewardship in Toyota. Not many other organizations and no other lift truck manufacturer can equal Toyota's record of caring for the environment while simultaneously stimulating the economy. Environmental accountability is a fundamental feature 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 an added reason they remain a leader within the industry.
Toyota originally released the 8-Series line of lift vehicles in 2006, yet again exhibiting its leadership and innovation in the industry. Featuring an exclusive emission system that eclipsed both Federal EPA emission values, and California's more environmentally friendly emission standards. The finished creation is a lift truck that creates 70 percent fewer smog forming emissions than the current Federal standards tolerate.
Furthermore in 2006, Toyota developed a relationship with the Arbor Day Foundation, furthering their dedication to the environment. Upwards of 57,000 trees have been planted in district parks and national forests damaged by natural reasons such as fires, as a result of this partnership. 10,500 seedlings have also been spread through Toyota Industrial Equipment's network of dealers 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 importantly, the industry's leading safety technology. The company's System of Active Stability, also referred to as "SAS", helps decrease the risk of mishaps and injuries, in addition to increasing productivity levels while minimizing the likelihood of product and equipment damage.
System Active Stability can sense situations that could lead to lateral unsteadiness and possible lateral overturn. When one of these conditions have been detected, the SAS will immediately 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, offering 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 initially used on the 7-Series internal combustion lift trucks which were put on the market in 1999. These systems helped boost Toyota into the lead for industry safety standards. Now, SAS is used on almost every modern 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 trucks in the field, along with obligatory operator instruction, overturn fatalities across all models have decreased by 13.6% since 1999. Also, there has 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 rigid principles continue far beyond the technology itself. The company believes in offering extensive Operator Safety Training courses to help users satisfy and exceed OSHA standard 1910.178. Training courses, video tutorials and a variety of resources, covering a wide scope of subjects-from personal safety, to OSHA policies, to surface and load conditions, are available through the vendor network.
Toyota has sustained a relentless 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 bought in America today are built in the United States.
Situated in Columbus, Ind., the Toyota Industrial Equipment Mfg. campus equals 998,000 square feet of facilities across 126 acres. Facilities include a National Customer Center, as well as production operations and distribution centers for equipment and service parts, with the entire commitment exceeding $113 million dollars.
The modern NCC was built to function for TMHU clients and sellers. The facility includes a 360-degree display room, a presentation theater complete with stadium seating for 32, an area for live product demonstrations with seating capability for 120; a presentation theater; Toyota's Hall of Fame showcasing Toyota's story since the birth of its founder, Sakichi Toyoda, in 1867, and finally a education center.
TMHU has 68 sanctioned industrial equipment dealers, along with 189 dealership locations all through the United States, offering the most complete and inclusive customer support and customer service in the industry. The company's new and Certified Used lift trucks, service, components, and financing capabilities make Toyota dealerships a one-stop shop to ensure overall consumer satisfaction.
