In the start of the nineteen fifties, Henry Le Grande Lull from the Lull Manufacturing Company originally designed the sideloader forklift. These early models were requested from the US Air Force. The initial concept was patented for commercial application but it was not developed until Lull Manufacturing was taken over in the year 1959 by the Baker Raulang Company. It was Baker Raulang who made the design. Afterward, the name was changed to Baker Traveloader. During the late nineteen fifties, the side-loaders were launched in Europe. The beginning units were designed by Italian manufacturer Fiora and the afterwards B-P Battioni e Pagani who pioneered the equipment's use within timber yards.
Side-loaders vary a bit from counterbalance, forward-traveling forklifts in that they have their forks situated on the side of the equipment. The operator drives the machinery sitting inside a cabin like a conventional forklift. The loading, unloading and lifting functions are performed by the mast located at the right-hand side of the driver. The load is typically transported lying on a wooden or metal deck. This helps to lessen stress, distortion and damage to the load. New innovations to the side-loader design have incorporated a huge range of lifting accessories being developed.
The utilization of side-loaders as opposed to the reach-stackers or conventional forklifts: improved visibility, safer operating conditions, and faster traveling speeds as well as the ability to use available space more effectively.
To be able to maintain safety, having an equally distributed cargo is beneficial to avoid lack of vehicle stability, and excessive tilting. An even load helps to prevent unacceptable load concentrations, and unacceptable vehicle axle loading.
The eccentricity of the center of gravity varies, with the load distribution in the container. It is very important that the designers of handling machines and containers take this into account during the engineering process. For instance, when 60 percent of the load by mass is distributed in 50% of the container length measured from one end of the machine, the eccentricity corresponds to five percent.
