Performance
The overall result of how well the machine's functions work together is categorized by the performance of the equipment. The equipment's overall efficiency is determined by a combination of capacity, user-friendliness, lifting speed and visibility.
The working hydraulics and the engine undergo extreme lifting and this places intense demands on the machine. The lifting component 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 high pulling process and precise control. All of these functions have 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 particular working conditions of empty container handling. These conditions include high power and high torque levels at low engine speeds.
The engines of existing units comply with the stringent legal environmental demands that are now in the business. The engines provide low exhaust emission levels, low vibration and noise levels, low fuel consumption characterize all engine options.
Transmission
All container handlers have been made with really durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For fast acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has integrated gearbox and torque converter. The gear changing is electrically attained via solenoid valves. These provide 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 handle the different 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
All empty container handlers have wet disc brakes with oil cooled discs which 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 efficient braking to the model. The system could deal with heavy cargo over a long period of time and is practically maintenance free. This system provides no fade and requires no need for brake adjustments.
