Performance
The overall result of how well the equipment's functions work together is categorized by the performance of the machinery. The machine's overall effectiveness is determined by a combination of lifting speed, visibility, capacity and user-friendliness.
The working hydraulics and the engine undergo extreme lifting and this places intense demands on the machinery. The lifting factor 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 high pulling process and precise control. All of these functions should be able to work in an optimum manner, even after heavy usage.
Engine
Every empty container handler is made with a straight six cylinder turbo charged engine equipped with an intercooler. The engines are adapted to the specific working conditions of empty container handling. These conditions consist of high torque levels and high power at low engine speeds.
Now in the industry, the engines of current units follow the strict legal environment demands. The engines provide low exhaust emission levels, low vibration and noise 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 fast acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has integrated torque converter and gearbox. The gear changing is electrically attained via solenoid valves. These offer 3 forward and 3 reverse gears that are controlled by means of a multifunction lever that is easily operated.
Drive Axle
The drive axles are engineered to deal with the extreme and tough working environments in terminals and in ports. All axles have reduction in 2 stages - differential and hub reduction. These features ensure a minimum of strain on the transmission system. Furthermore, the drive axles are fitted with a hydraulic braking system.
Service Brake System
Wet Disc Brakes that have oil cooled discs which 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 efficient braking to the model. The system could deal with heavy cargo over a long period of time and is basically maintenance free. This particular system requires no need for brake adjustments and provides no fade.
