Performance
The performance of the machinery is the overall result of how well the equipment functions and works together. The equipment's overall efficiency is determined by a combination of user-friendliness, capacity, visibility and lifting speed.
The engine and the working hydraulics go through extreme lifting and this places intense demands on the machine. The lifting factor is only a part of the operating cycle. Prior to the equipment 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 need to be able to operate in an optimum manner, even after heavy usage.
Engine
Each 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 comprise high power and high torque levels at low engine speeds.
The engines of existing models follow the stringent legal environmental demands that are currently within the industry. The engines offer low vibration and noise levels, low exhaust emission levels, low fuel use characterize all engine options.
Transmission
All of the trucks in the series are outfitted with exceptional and really durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For quick acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has incorporated gearbox and torque converter. The gear changing is electrically attained via solenoid valves. These provide 3 reverse and 3 forward gears that are controlled by means of a multifunction lever which is easily operated.
Drive Axle
The drive axles are engineered to deal with the tough and extreme working settings in terminals and in 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, once the brakes are engaged. This offers effective braking to the model. The system is practically maintenance free and could deal with heavy cargo over a long period of time. This system requires no need for brake adjustments and provides no fade.
