Il ne faut pas confondre le terme «manutention» avec les termes «manipulation» et «transport». En effet, le terme «manipulation» se limite aux déplacements effectués dans l'aire d'un poste de travail, tandis que le terme «transport» correspond à des déplacements qui se font sur une distance plus importante que dans le cas de la manutention et généralement à l'extérieur. 8, record 1, French, - manutention

Établir une classification des matériels de manutention est bien difficile [...]. La classification adoptée ici s'inspire de celle de la Fédération Européenne de la Manutention (F.E.M.). [...] On y retrouvera la distinction entre matériels à fonctionnement continu et à fonctionnement discontinu. De même trouvera-t-on séparément les installations fixes de manutention et les matériels mobiles. On a également séparé les matériels pour produits en vrac de ceux pour charges isolées. 1, record 2, French, - mat%C3%A9riel%20de%20manutention
