Performance
The performance of the machine is the overall result of how well the machine functions and works together. The equipment's overall efficiency is determined by a combination of visibility, lifting speed, capacity and user-friendliness.
The engine and the equipment working hydraulics undergo extreme lifting, that places intense demands on the machinery. The lifting component is only a part of the operating cycle. Prior to the equipment being able to unload or load, the demands are placed on effective brakes, tight turning radius with accurate control and high pulling power. All of these functions should be able to work in an optimum manner, even after heavy usage.
Engine
Each unit of empty container handlers are equipped with straight six cylinder turbo charged engines which are outfitted with intercooler. The engines are adapted to the specific working conditions of empty container handling. These conditions include high torque levels and high power at low engine speeds.
Presently within the industry, the engines of current units follow the stringent legal environment demands. The engines provide 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 equipped 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 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 drive axles are designed to handle the extreme and tough working settings in ports and in terminals. All axles have reduction in 2 stages - differential and hub reduction. These features guarantee a minimum of strain on the transmission system. Furthermore, 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 which are alternately fixed to and rotating with the hub. The disc brakes are pressed together by hydraulic pressure from the brake pedal, once the brakes are engaged. This provides efficient braking to the model. The system could deal with heavy loads over a long period of time and is practically maintenance free. This particular system offers no fade and requires no need for brake adjustments.
