forklift trucks
Can anyone help me with beschikbaarheid please in the following forklift truck-related context (availability does not seem to fit… I was thinking something along the lines of “reduced downtime”…):
De heftruck heeft (door een intelligente aandrijflijn en een sterk verbeterd elektrisch en hydraulisch systeem) een ***beschikbaarheid*** de 30% hoger is.
