As the pharmaceutical industry continues to grow, companies face increasing challenges in warehouse efficiency, inventory management, and strict regulatory compliance. A leading pharmaceutical manufacturer recently partnered with MiMA Forklift to tackle these issues head-on.
By adopting the MiMA MCC16 Man-up Turret Truck, the company maximized storage capacity, improved order fulfillment speed, and ensured a contamination-free environment—all within a highly space-efficient warehouse setup. Here’s how MiMA helped transform their operations.

MiMA’s Solution: MCC16 Man-up Turret Truck
Since pioneering the development of VNA turret trucks in China in 2007, MiMA has built extensive expertise in VNA storage solutions.
After a thorough site assessment, MiMA’s sales engineers recommended a VNA material-handling strategy. The company ultimately chose the MiMA MCC16 Man-up Turret Truck.
1. Maximized Storage with VNA solution
The MiMA MCC16 is specifically designed for ultra-narrow aisles, requiring a working aisle width of just 1.65 meters while supporting a 1.6-ton load capacity. To meet the customer’s storage needs, the lift height was customized to 15.8 meters (with additional customization available if needed). This optimization significantly increased warehouse density, reduced footprint costs, and enhanced overall storage efficiency.

2. Magnetic Navigation for Higher Productivity
The customer opted for magnetic navigation mode, allowing operators to focus on lifting and stacking without steering within the aisle. This simplified operation, improved accuracy, and increased work efficiency, helping the company speed up order fulfillment.

3. Eco-Friendly & Efficient Picking
As a fully electric, zero-emission forklift, the MCC16 ensures a clean handling process, preserving pharmaceutical integrity while meeting strict environmental standards. Additionally, its man-up picking function enables operators to pick and transport items simultaneously, boosting efficiency by 30% compared to traditional methods—an ideal solution for high-turnover pharmaceutical warehouses.

4. Superior Braking & Stability for Safety
To meet the strict safety requirements of pharmaceutical and medical device handling, the MCC16 is equipped with large load-bearing wheels and an all-wheel electromagnetic braking system. Even in full-load emergency braking scenarios, the truck maintains stability. The added automatic speed reduction at aisle ends further ensures safe and smooth operation.
