Performance
The performance of the machine is the overall result of how well the machine functions and works together. The overall efficiency of the machinery is determined by a combination of visibility, lifting speed, user-friendliness and capacity.
The engine and the working hydraulics undergo extreme lifting and this puts 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 precise control and high pulling power. All of these functions must be able to work in an optimum manner, even after heavy usage.
Engine
Each and 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 include high power and high torque levels at low engine speeds.
Currently within the business, the engines of existing units comply with the stringent legal environment demands. The engines provide 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 extremely durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For quick acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has included torque converter and gearbox. The gear changing is electrically achieved via solenoid valves. These offer 3 reverse and 3 forward gears that are controlled by means of an easily operated multifunction lever.
Drive Axle
The drive axles are engineered to handle the extreme and tough working environments in ports and in terminals. All axles have reduction in 2 stages - hub reduction and differential. These features guarantee a minimum of strain on the transmission system. Moreover, 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. Once the brakes are engaged, the discs are pressed together by hydraulic pressure from the brake pedal. This provides effective braking to the model. The system could deal with heavy cargo over a long period of time and is practically maintenance free. This particular system offers no fade and requires no need for brake adjustments.
