Heavy Forklifts
Hyundai is targeting a new customer base with their new range of heavy forklift trucks. Various industries, from the natural stone and concrete businesses, to the steel industry, the transportation of heavy goods in the ports and the railway sector are all relying on and working with heavy duty machines. The power and efficiency offered by the units keep cost of operation low and provide the very best conditions for economical work. These equipment could excel in the most demanding settings.
Providing the necessary power on all of the large capacity units, the Cummins diesel engine varies from 162 horse-power to 250 horse-power. TierIII emission standards are met with engines which have 6 cylinders. These kinds of forklifts can take the truck up to a speed of 35 km/h. It provides for a high climbing ability on steep slopes and rough terrain and also provides great acceleration.
The operator can use a switch in order to choose 1 of 2 driving modes. While in "Power" mode, full power is available for work on tough terrain or heavy loads. In the "STP" mode, the trucks are able to save a lot of fuel during light-duty work. Moreover, just by pressing a switch, the operator can automatically maintain a chosen speed without touching the accelerator pedal. This is another fuel saving function. The fully automatic transmission of the forklift gently shifts through the gears, making the equipment comfortable to use and easy to maneuver.
A comfortable and spacious working place is offered by a well-ventilated cabin. The cabin combines fatigue-free work with high performance. The powerful heating and air conditioning system helps make sure that the operator is comfortable inside. The cab was designed ergonomically to provide a bird's eye view of all of the controls, adding to the overall safety of the unit. An MP3 player and a CD player put the finishing touches on providing the nice atmosphere which Hyundai machines are supposed to have.
