Kalmar Container Handlers Portland

Performance

The performance of the machine is the overall result of how well the machine functions and works together. The overall effectiveness of the machine is determined by a combination of capacity, user-friendliness, visibility and lifting speed.



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 machinery 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 need to be able to work in an optimum manner, even after heavy usage.



Engine

Every empty container handler is built 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 power and high torque levels at low engine speeds.



Now within the industry, the engines of current units comply with the stringent legal environment demands. The engines provide low vibration and noise levels, low exhaust emission levels, low fuel consumption characterize all engine alternatives.



Transmission

All of the trucks in the series are equipped with exceptional and extremely durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For quick acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has incorporated gearbox and torque converter. The gear changing is electrically accomplished via 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 engineered to deal with the tough and extreme working environments in ports and in terminals. All axles have reduction in 2 stages - hub reduction and differential. These features guarantee 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 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 offers efficient braking to the unit. The system is practically maintenance free and could deal with heavy cargo over a long period of time. This system requires no need for brake adjustments and offers no fade.
