Very narrow aisle trucks (VNA trucks)
VNA trucks with impressive performance and maximum safety
With our very narrow aisle (VNA) trucks, also known as turret trucks or high rack stackers, you can make stacking pallets just as effortless as picking individual items in your very narrow aisle warehouse: They are a steady favourite thanks to their optimum handling performance and space utilisation – important advantages when it comes to logistics. Thanks to energy recovery and effective energy management, you can easily use these VNA trucks in normal operation over two shifts without having to change the batteries. The clear layout of the cabin also offers your employees a generously dimensioned workplace with a control panel to adjust the height and tilt. All of our turret trucks are additionally equipped with an integrated personal protection system that is designed to meet even the highest safety requirements.
VNA trucks in top shape – Top performance even when things get tight
Our very narrow aisle (VNA) trucks are the ideal solution for use in the middle and upper high-rack segment. They set new standards in terms of flexibility, ergonomics and economic efficiency, ensuring maximum handling performance, especially in narrow aisles. In order to provide a narrow working area that features both small safety distances and large lifting heights, the vehicle and racking have to interlock perfectly. This means that high rack stackers require not only strong travel and lift performance, but also excellent operability:
Thanks to their mechanical and inductive wire guidance, VNA trucks operate very close to the racks, which both enables high travel and lift speeds and reduces the strain on the driver.
VNA trucks with innovative warehouse navigation
Thanks to the integrated RFID transponder technology, our VNA trucks inform you that “You have reached your destination” after every journey. This sophisticated warehouse navigation directs your VNA trucks to the pallet locations with perfect precision. Warehouse management transmits all transport and picking orders directly to the truck terminal via radio data. The VNA truck identifies the next target location based on the coordinates, allowing you to approach the relevant rack semi-automatically. After confirming the travel and lift directions indicated on the display, the industrial truck automatically approaches the right position with millimetre precision.

How the VNA advantages stack up:
To fully understand how our VNA's advantages stack up against a reach truck, take a look at our comparison guide. With man-up and man-down, manual, semi automatic and fully automated options, Jungheinrich can get your business operating on the next level.
Compared to reach trucks, VNA have many advantages:
While reach trucks can achieve a huge amount with stacking and picking in restricted spaces, they cannot compete with the VNA truck which are designed and optimised to operate in a specific warehouse setup.
VNA can be designed for manual operation but often are semi-automatic and increasingly 'fully-automated' as technology moves towards less human intervention. A 'man-down' VNA truck has a rotating mast, making pallet retrieval easy and can operate in a wide variety of situations, including warehouses, loading bays and open areas. 'A man-up' VNA places the operator in a telescoping platform, enabling them to get close to the stacking and picking activity. These 'man-up' VNA are perfect for high density warehouse storage situations and often work with guidance systems built into the warehouse floor, making navigation simple and controllable.
