Jungheinrich presents new AME 18 pallet truck – a powerful lightweight

With the AME 18, Jungheinrich is launching a compact and powerful truck that has been specially developed for the demands of modern logistics processes – efficient, flexible and safe.

  • Load-bearing capacity of 1,800 kg with minimal unladen weight – ideal for confined spaces and weight-sensitive environments
  • Modern lithium-ion technology – enables efficient, maintenance-free operation and intermediate charging
  • Built-in charger – for flexible charging at any socket
  • Intuitive one-handed operation and robust design – for maximum safety and productivity in day-to-day work 

Hamburg – With the new AME 18 pallet truck, Jungheinrich is presenting an innovative truck for in-house material flows. The AME 18 has been specially developed for the growing demands of modern logistics processes. Its compact design, robust construction and high performance make it the lightweight champion in its class.

The truck is the product of a close development collaboration between the Jungheinrich locations in Norderstedt and Qingpu and marks another step forward for technological independence and innovative strength.

With its load-bearing capacity of 1,800 kg, compact dimensions and low unladen weight, the AME 18 is ideal for daily pallet transport – even in particularly tight spaces or weight-sensitive environments such as shops, production sites or lorry beds. The modern lithium-ion technology provides high levels of energy efficiency and availability. An integrated rapid-charging function and maintenance-free drive motor enable flexible intermediate charging. Swapping an empty battery for a fully charged one is quick and easy – a decisive advantage in time-critical logistics processes.

One-handed operation from both sides combined with an intuitive user interface ensures convenient and safe handling. Thanks to a crawl speed button, the AME 18 can be precisely manoeuvred even in tight spaces. The reinforced steel construction and protected support wheels ensure maximum safety. High driving and cornering stability minimises risks for people, machinery and goods.

“With the AME 18, we are launching a vehicle that impresses not only with its compact design and robustness but also sets new standards in terms of performance,” says Faruk Gökdurmuş, product manager at Jungheinrich.

“The close collaboration between our teams in Norderstedt and Qingpu has created a product that meets the demands of modern logistics in every respect – flexible, powerful and forward-looking,” adds Faruk Gökdurmuş.
