Performance
The performance of the equipment is the overall result of how well the equipment functions and works together. The machine's overall effectiveness is determined by a combination of capacity, user-friendliness, visibility and lifting speed.
The engine and the machines working hydraulics undergo extreme lifting, which places intense demands on the machine. The lifting component is only a part of the operating cycle. Prior to the machine being able to unload or load, the demands are placed on effective brakes, tight turning radius with high pulling process and precise control. All of these functions should be able to operate in an optimum manner, even after heavy usage.
Engine
Every empty container handler is built 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.
The engines of current models comply with the stringent legal environmental demands which are now within the business. The engines offer low exhaust emission levels, low vibration and noise levels, low fuel use characterize all engine options.
Transmission
All of the trucks in the series are outfitted with excellent and extremely durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For fast acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has integrated gearbox and torque converter. The gear changing is electrically accomplished 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 various working settings in ports and terminals. All axles have reduction in 2 stages - differential and hub reduction. These features ensure a minimum of strain on the transmission system. Furthermore, the drive axles are fitted with a hydraulic braking system.
Service Brake System
Wet Disc Brakes that have oil cooled discs which 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 basically maintenance free and could deal with heavy cargo over a long period of time. This particular system offers no fade and requires no need for brake adjustments.
