A Carton Clamp Attachment is a specialized forklift tool designed to handle rectangular or square pallet-less loads, such as appliances (white goods), electronics, and consumer paper products.
By using large, flat pads to apply lateral pressure, it allows for efficient stacking and transport while eliminating the cost and space required for pallets.
Below are the typical technical specifications and features for these units.

Primary Technical Specifications

Specifications vary based on the manufacturer (e.g., Cascade, Bolzoni, Kaup) and the size of the forklift. Common ranges include:
Specification Typical Range / Valu
Capacity 1,500 lbs to 4,850 lbs (approx. 700 kg to 2,200 kg).
Opening Range 15″ – 80″ (Custom ranges up to 94″ available).
Arm/Pad Height 40″ – 52″ (standard appliance sizes).
Arm/Pad Length 30″ – 52″ (to match load depth).
Mounting Class ITA Class II or Class III (standard forklift carriages).
Effective Thickness 5″ – 7″ (the distance the attachment extends from the carriage).
Weight 1,200 lbs – 1,650 lbs (depending on arm size).

Key Components & Features

Aluminum Contact Pads: Large, lightweight surface pads usually lined with high-friction vulcanized rubber. This ensures a firm grip without needing excessive pressure that could crush the product.
Thin Arm Profile: Designed to be “knife-like” so the operator can easily slide the arms between tightly packed stacks in warehouses or shipping containers.
Side-Shifting Capability: Most units come with a built-in side-shifter, allowing the operator to move the load left or right for precise alignment without moving the truck.
Four-Stage Pressure Valves: Allows the operator to adjust the clamping force based on the fragility of the load (e.g., lower pressure for light electronics, higher for heavy appliances).
UHMW Bearings: Full-length, lubrication-free bearings that provide smooth arm movement and high durability.

Advanced Options for Damage Reduction

To prevent “crushing” or dropping loads, modern carton clamps often include:
VFC (Volumetric Force Control): Automatically adjusts clamping pressure based on the size/volume of the load.
Sequential Arm Control: Allows arms to move independently for better positioning in tight spaces.
Tilt Indicators: Digital sensors that ensure the clamp is perfectly level before engaging a load to prevent tearing the bottom of the cartons.

Application Requirements

To select the right unit, you must know:
The Forklift’s Residual Capacity: Adding a clamp reduces the amount the forklift can safely lift because the attachment is heavy and moves the load center forward.
Hydraulic Functions: Most carton clamps require two additional hydraulic functions (one for clamping/opening and one for side-shifting).
Load Sensitivity: Determine if you need “white goods” pads (specialized for appliances) or standard “carton” pads.
