Calculate Forklift Load Center Capacity (FLC)





Formula

The formula to calculate the forklift load center capacity (FLC) is:

\[ FLC = \frac{SLC}{ALC} \times SRC \]

What is Forklift Load Center Capacity?

A load center capacity describes the equivalent capacity a forklift can hold when the load center distance is different than the standard load center distance that the forklift was rated at.

Example Calculation

Let's consider an example:

Using the formula to calculate Forklift Load Center Capacity:

\[ FLC = \frac{24}{30} \times 5000 \approx 4000 \, \text{lbs} \]

This means that the forklift load center capacity would be approximately 4000 lbs.
