Performance
The overall result of how well the machine's functions work together is categorized by the performance of the machinery. The equipment's overall effectiveness is determined by a combination of user-friendliness, capacity, lifting speed and visibility.
The engine and the machinery working hydraulics go through extreme lifting, that places intense demands on the machine. The lifting factor is just 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 must be able to work in an optimum manner, even after heavy usage.
Engine
Every unit of empty container handlers are outfitted with straight six cylinder turbo charged engines that are outfitted with intercooler. The engines are adapted to the specific working conditions of empty container handling. These conditions comprise high torque levels and high power at low engine speeds.
Presently within the industry, the engines of current models follow the strict legal environment demands. The engines provide low exhaust emission levels, low noise and vibration levels, low fuel consumption characterize all engine options.
Transmission
All of the trucks in the series are outfitted with excellent and really durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For quick 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 provide 3 forward and 3 reverse gears that are controlled by means of a multifunction lever which is easily operated.
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. In addition, the drive axles are fitted with a hydraulic braking system.
Service Brake System
Wet Disc Brakes which 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 offers effective braking to the model. The system is able to deal with heavy loads over a long period of time and is practically maintenance free. This particular system provides no fade and requires no need for brake adjustments.
