Heavy-duty, high-performance machinery optimized for high-temperature and dusty Sahelian conditions.
Mali, located in the heart of West Africa, is experiencing a transformative phase in its industrial, mining, and agricultural sectors. As the continent's third-largest gold producer, Mali's extraction sites in regions like Kayes, Sikasso, and Koulikoro require heavy equipment capable of working in challenging off-road terrains. Telescopic handlers (telehandlers) have emerged as indispensable multi-tool carriers, filling the gap between standard rough-terrain forklifts and mobile cranes.
Moreover, Mali's cotton sector—managed largely through the Compagnie Malienne pour le Développement des Textiles (CMDT)—demands reliable logistics machinery for high-density bale stacking and warehouse logistics. A key challenge is the dry, dust-laden Sahelian winds (Harmattan) and summer temperatures exceeding 45°C, demanding engineered cooling systems and dust-filtration technologies.
As a leading Telehandler Manufacturer & Factory, Anhui Neto Forklifts Co., Ltd. builds specialized African-spec machinery designed to conquer these environmental challenges, ensuring high operational uptime and lower total cost of ownership (TCO).
• Gold Mine Logistics: Handling drill rods, conveyor components, and spare parts in remote, unpaved locations.
• Cotton Processing: Precision stacking of raw cotton bales with custom hydraulic clamps up to 10-18 meters height.
• Urban Infrastructure: High-reach capability for modern construction sites in Bamako and surrounding urban hubs.
• Dry Port Operations: Unloading shipping containers and bulk freight at critical inland dry ports linking Mali with Dakar and Abidjan ports.
How we optimize our machinery to operate reliably in high-temperature, dusty, and unpaved terrains.
Equipped with heavy-duty aluminum parallel radiators and an automated reversible fan, our system repels fine dust and maintains optimal engine temperatures, even when operating in ambient temperatures reaching 50°C.
Industrial-grade oil bath air pre-filters extract 99% of particulate matter before it reaches the combustion chamber, preventing premature engine wear and significantly extending service life in sandy environments.
Utilizing heavy-duty axles with wet multi-disc brakes and selectable steering modes (crab, 4-wheel, and 2-wheel) to easily navigate soft sands and mud during the Mali rainy season.
Understanding that fuel quality in certain parts of West Africa can vary, our diesel engines are optimized to run on locally available fuel grades without clogging common-rail injectors. High-torque output at low RPMs ensures maximum fuel efficiency and reduced wear on the transmission.
For applications demanding high structural strength, the main booms of our machines are constructed from high-tensile steel, bent into a U-shape to minimize stress points. The structural integrity is validated using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and verified by dynamic fatigue testing simulating over 20,000 continuous lifting cycles.
With over 30 years of industrial manufacturing experience, Anhui Neto Forklifts Co., Ltd. stands as a premier modern enterprise specializing in the R&D, fabrication, and worldwide delivery of material handling equipment and construction machinery.
Our state-of-the-art facilities are certified by ISO 9001 quality management systems and SGS. All equipment engineered for global export complies with stringent CE standards. Our dedicated R&D team consists of more than 35 professional mechanical and software engineers focused on material handling advancements.
By holding more than 30 independent patents—ranging from structural designs to hydraulic control valves—we deliver custom solutions that enhance reliability and operator safety.
Superior quality originates from superior manufacturing processes. Our factories utilize high-end automated machinery to maintain tolerances within micrometers:
Automated welding guarantees full penetration and consistency across all structural joints of the telehandler chassis and telescoping boom.
High-precision plate cutting ensures structural components align perfectly, reducing friction in wear pads and extension rollers.
Verifying component geometry to ensure tight seals and precise mechanical fits, eliminating hydraulic leaks and structural shifts.
Driving innovations to build smarter, safer, and cleaner material handling solutions.
At Neto Forklifts, our commitment to technological evolution guides our development. We continuously update our products to meet global efficiency expectations, focusing on smart hydraulics, lower carbon emissions, and operator-assisting safety arrays.
For the West African market, our focus remains on improving mechanical simplicity combined with heavy-duty performance. By using modular engine setups, we ensure that operators in remote regions of Mali can maintain their machines with readily available service components.
Ensuring your operations keep running smoothly with dedicated technical support and swift parts dispatch.
Every telehandler shipped to Mali is covered by a 12-month warranty from the Bill of Lading (BL) date, securing your investment against manufacturing defects.
In the event of physical part damage, replacement parts are dispatched via fast couriers or sea freight. If no physical damage is found, online diagnostic support is provided.
We offer comprehensive operator training and maintenance education. Training can be hosted at our factory or on-site at your facility in Mali.
Our manufacturing plant features modern structural layout controls. Each assembly section follows strict QC protocols before passing the equipment to final load testing and diagnostic inspection.
Designed for multi-purpose lifting, agricultural operations, and mining site assistance.
