Performance
The overall result of how well the equipment's functions work together is categorized by the performance of the machinery. The overall effectiveness of the machine is determined by a combination of user-friendliness, capacity, visibility and lifting speed.
The working hydraulics and the engine go through extreme lifting and this places intense demands on the machinery. 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 operate in an optimum manner, even after heavy usage.
Engine
Every empty container handler is built with a straight six cylinder turbo charged engine equipped with an intercooler. The engines are adapted to the particular working conditions of empty container handling. These conditions comprise high power and high torque levels at low engine speeds.
Now in the industry, the engines of current units comply with the stringent legal environment demands. The engines offer low vibration and noise levels, low exhaust emission levels, low fuel consumption characterize all engine alternatives.
Transmission
All of the trucks in the series are outfitted with exceptional and really durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For fast acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has included 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 various working settings in terminals and ports. All axles have reduction in 2 stages - hub reduction and differential. These features guarantee a minimum of strain on the transmission system. Additionally, the drive axles are fitted with a hydraulic braking system.
Service Brake System
All empty container handlers have wet disc brakes with oil cooled discs that are alternately fixed to and rotating with the hub. The disc brakes are pressed together by hydraulic pressure from the brake pedal, when the brakes are engaged. This provides efficient braking to the model. The system is basically maintenance free and can deal with heavy cargo over a long period of time. This system offers no fade and requires no need for brake adjustments.
