More moves, less energy
March 1st 2010 Hyster has extended its JXN range to
include 2.2, 2.5, 3.0 and 3.5t capacity
electric counterbalanced forklifts for
both indoor and outdoor operation.
The company claims that the new
JXN moves more loads whilst using
less energy than any competitor.
The new models are available in
two configurations, Advance and
Advance+, the latter designed to
operate in intensive, high productivity
applications with long runs and high
lifts, with comparative performance
to IC engine powered equipment.
The Advance models are equipped
with eLo and HiP settings, which can
be programmed to meet the required
energy versus productivity balance
that best suits the demands of the
application. Tests prove that on the
eLo setting, Advance models are 7.5%
more productive than the competitive
average and on the HiP setting, 9%
more productive. By comparison, the
eLo setting uses 20% less energy and
HiP uses 16% less energy, according
to the VDI test cycle.
The new trucks feature Hyster's
Zero Turn Radius Steer Axle (ZTR).
The rear wheels turn more than 90°
which, in combination with separate
drive motors mounted on each of the
front wheels, allows the truck to turn
within its own circle. More articles from Hyster Europe: |
