Crown Forklift Part
Crown Forklift Parts - The Crown company was founded in 1945 by two brothers, Allen A. Dicke and the late Carl H. Dicke. Carl's son and Chairman Emeritus, James F. Dicke, joined the family company later on that same year. Currently, his son, James F. Dicke II, is Chairman and CEO. James F. Dicke III, serves as the company Head at the moment, becoming the fourth generation of the Dicke descendants to uphold this position.
Crown in the beginning began with a small client base producing temperature controls that they manufactured for coal burning furnaces. The production of these control items took place in a former hardware store stationed in New Bremen, Ohio, where Crown's head office currently remain.
By the year 1949, Crown shifted into the making of rotators for antenna due the increased fascination with televisions at the time. The product was able to improve the image and signal quality. The company's profitable move enabled them to become a leading maker of units until 2001. The company ceased production in October after a decline in the global need for TV antenna rotators.
Crown soon diversified its manufacturing to incorporate the restoration of mechanical and electrical components for private and government use in the early 1950's. After a number of profitable bids within a short period of time, the company had developed a respectable business in this field.
Versatility and achievement dominated Crown's capability to diversify once again. In 1957, production into the materials handling market began with lift truck production. The company believed the market required a smaller line of top-quality quality forklifts. Crown immediately produced an exceptional range of progressive equipment and swiftly became the most rapidly evolving material handling company with its variety of products.
In 1966, Crown ventured outside of the US material handling market and into Australia. Sydney, Australia is home to the regional center of operations and at present leads Crown's Asia Pacific service, sales and marketing teams. Crown remains an unwavering industry leader these days, supported by exceptional operations, solid sales and strong manufacturing operations.
In 1968, Crown established itself in the European marketplace by acquiring an Irish manufacturing plant from its parent company, Steinbock, who was a German firm. They started to manufacture Crowns' (PTH), hand pallet trucks. Later on that same year, Crown started their first London operation stationed near Heathrow Airport. The sales and service operation of Crown's complete forklift line was accessible in the UK by the end of the decade. In the early 1970's, Crown expanded and began marketing forklifts across Europe through autonomous sellers.
Today, Crown manufactures a massive fleet of electric lift trucks. The company's dealer network, based in key global markets, consists of both Crown-owned and independently-owned dealers. They are responsible for handling the company's product sales and service.
There is Corporate facilities in Munich, Germany and in New Bremen Ohio, which provide promotional sales and national marketing support to all of their sellers and sales personnel. Crown dealers and sales personnel are trained in-house in various disciplines to guarantee the utmost reliability and service. The Munich office was launched in the 1980's and offers purchasing, marketing and advertising, engineering and design functions for India, Africa, the Middle East along with Europe. The diverse family of global sellers and Crown-owned sellers effectively operate in almost 100 foreign city environments.

Today, this design has gained general acceptance and earned a Design of the Decade award from the International Design Society of America. Again, more than thirty years later, the 5200S Series Reach Truck is another market original, offering the operator with several comfort options to lean, sit or stand, along with its unparalleled output capability.
