Performance
The overall result of how well the equipment's functions work together is categorized by the performance of the machinery. The equipment's overall effectiveness is determined by a combination of capacity, user-friendliness, lifting speed and visibility.
The engine and the equipment working hydraulics undergo extreme lifting, which puts intense demands on the equipment. The lifting factor is only a part of the operating cycle. Prior to the machinery being able to load or unload, 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 operate in an optimum fashion, 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 consist of high power and high torque levels at low engine speeds.
Presently within the business, the engines of current models follow the stringent legal environment demands. The engines offer low noise and vibration levels, low exhaust emission levels, low fuel use characterize all engine options.
Transmission
All of the trucks in the series are equipped with excellent and really durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For fast acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has included gearbox and torque converter. 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 deal with the tough and extreme working environments 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. Moreover, 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 provides effective braking to the model. The system is practically maintenance free and is able to cope with heavy cargo over a long period of time. This particular system requires no need for brake adjustments and provides no fade.
