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 President these days, becoming the fourth generation of the Dicke family to continue this position.
Now an internationally diversified corporation, Crown initially manufactured temperature controls for coal burning furnaces, servicing a small client base. The assembly of these control units took place in a former hardware store based in New Bremen, Ohio, where Crown's head office currently remain.
By the year 1949, Crown shifted into the construction of rotators for antenna due the increased interest in televisions at the time. The product was able to improve the picture and signal quality. The company's successful move allowed them to become a leading producer of units until 2001. The company ceased production in October after a decline in the global need for TV antenna rotators.
In the early 1950's Crown diversified into the manufacturing and restoration of electronic and mechanical machinery for government and private industry. Following numerous lucrative bids inside a brief period of time, the company had built a respectable business in this field.
Flexibility and success dominated Crown's ability to diversify once again. In 1957, production into the materials handling industry began with forklift production. The company believed the industry required a smaller line of first-class quality lift trucks. Crown promptly fashioned an exceptional series of progressive equipment and swiftly evolved into the most rapidly evolving materials handling company with its collection of merchandise.
By 1966, Crown had ventured into the international material handling markets by opening up shop in Sydney, Australia. Sydney is at the moment a regional center of operations for Crown for all Pacific Asian sales, marketing and advertising, and services. Crown remains an unwavering industry leader these days, supported by exceptional service, solid sales and solid manufacturing operations.
In 1968, Crown established itself in the European market by obtaining an Irish production plant from its parent company, Steinbock, who was a German firm. They began to manufacture Crowns' (PTH), hand pallet trucks. Later that same year, Crown started their first London operation stationed nearby Heathrow Airport. The sales and service operation of Crown's complete lift truck line was accessible in the UK by the end of the decade. In the early 1970's, Crown expanded and began marketing and advertising forklifts across Europe through autonomous sellers.
Nowadays, Crown manufactures a vast fleet of electric lift trucks. The company's supplier network, situated in key international markets, consists of both Crown-owned and independently-owned sellers. They are accountable for managing the company's product sales and service.
Corporate offices in New Bremen, Ohio and Munich, Germany provide nationwide marketing and promotional sales support to all dealer and sales personnel. Both Crown sales and dealer personnel are factory- trained in all disciplines to guarantee the utmost reliability and service. The Munich office was launched in the 1980's and offers purchasing, advertising and marketing, engineering and design functions for India, Africa, the Middle East along with Europe. The diverse family of international dealers and Crown-owned sellers successfully operate in nearly 100 foreign city environments.
The 6 USA production locations for Crown include New Bremen, Ohio; New Knoxville, Ohio; Fort Loramie, Ohio; Celina, Ohio; Kinston, North Carolina; and Greencastle, Indiana. Crown proudly manufactures globally, producing forklifts in Sydney, Australia since 1966, Queretaro, Mexico since 1973, Roding, Germany since 1986 and Suzhou, China since 2006. Crown also owns branch sales and service center operations in more than 30 locations in the USA. International branch sales and service center operations include locations in Singapore, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Korea, Malaysia, England, Germany, Belgium and Australia.
Through its numerous clientèle around the world, Crown has built an outstanding reputation as a producer of forward-thinking, safe and dependable machines. The company has been awarded more than 50 prominent design awards and the products that Crown develops continues to attain recognition for innovation and top design excellence. To provide an example, in the 1970's, Crown's launch of the side-stance design proved exciting and unparalleled by materials handling specialists. Today, this design has acquired 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, providing the operator with many comfort options to lean, sit or stand, along with its unequaled productivity capability.
