Performance
The overall result of how well the machine's functions work together is categorized by the performance of the machine. The overall effectiveness of the equipment is determined by a combination of capacity, user-friendliness, lifting speed and visibility.
The working hydraulics and the engine go through extreme lifting and this places intense demands on the equipment. The lifting component is just 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 need to 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 which are outfitted with intercooler. The engines are adapted to the specific working conditions of empty container handling. These conditions include high torque levels and high power at low engine speeds.
Now in the business, the engines of existing models comply with the strict legal environment demands. The engines provide low vibration and noise levels, low exhaust emission levels, low fuel use characterize all engine alternatives.
Transmission
All container handlers have been built with really durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For fast acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has incorporated gearbox and torque converter. The gear changing is electrically attained by solenoid valves. These provide 3 forward and 3 reverse gears that are controlled by means of an easily operated multifunction lever.
Drive Axle
The drive axles are designed to handle the extreme and tough working settings 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. 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 loads over a long period of time and is practically maintenance free. This particular system requires no need for brake adjustments and provides no fade.
