Performance
The performance of the machine is the overall result of how well the machine functions and works together. The equipment's overall effectiveness is determined by a combination of visibility, lifting speed, user-friendliness and capacity.
The engine and the machines working hydraulics go through extreme lifting, which puts intense demands on the equipment. The lifting component is only a part of the operating cycle. Prior to the machine being able to load or unload, the demands are placed on effective brakes, tight turning radius with high pulling process and precise control. All of these functions have to be able to work in an optimum manner, even after heavy usage.
Engine
Each and every empty container handler is made with a straight six cylinder turbo charged engine outfitted with an intercooler. The engines are adapted to the specific working conditions of empty container handling. These conditions consist of high torque levels and high power at low engine speeds.
Now within the business, the engines of current units follow the strict legal environment demands. The engines offer low vibration and noise levels, low exhaust emission levels, low fuel consumption characterize all engine options.
Transmission
All of the trucks in the series are equipped with exceptional and extremely durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For quick acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has integrated torque converter and gearbox. The gear changing is electrically achieved by solenoid valves. These offer 3 reverse and 3 forward gears which are controlled by means of an easily operated multifunction lever.
Drive Axle
The rugged drive axles have engineered to handle the different working environments in terminals and ports. All axles have reduction in 2 stages - hub reduction and differential. These features ensure a minimum of strain on the transmission system. Additionally, the drive axles are fitted with a hydraulic braking system.
Service Brake System
Wet Disc Brakes that have oil cooled discs that are alternately fixed to and rotating with the hub equip all empty container handlers. When the brakes are engaged, the discs are pressed together by hydraulic pressure from the brake pedal. This offers efficient braking to the model. The system is able to deal with heavy loads over a long period of time and is practically maintenance free. This system requires no need for brake adjustments and offers no fade.
