Performance
The overall result of how well the machine's functions work together is categorized by the performance of the machinery. The machine's overall efficiency is determined by a combination of lifting speed, visibility, capacity and user-friendliness.
The engine and the machines working hydraulics go through extreme lifting, which 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 accurate control. All of these functions have to be able to operate in an optimum manner, even after heavy usage.
Engine
Each and every model of empty container handlers are equipped with straight six cylinder turbo charged engines which 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.
The engines of current units comply with the strict legal environmental demands which are presently within the business. The engines provide low exhaust emission levels, low noise and vibration levels, low fuel consumption characterize all engine options.
Transmission
All container handlers have been made with really durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For quick acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has included gearbox and torque converter. The gear changing is electrically attained by 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 rugged drive axles have engineered to deal with the different working settings in ports and terminals. All axles have reduction in 2 stages - hub reduction and differential. These features ensure 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 offers efficient braking to the model. The system is able to 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.
