New compact Still RX 50
March 1st 2011 A new model of the RX 50 electric
truck has been released by Still.
The new RX 50 is said to be the
most compact truck of its class with
load capacities from 1.0 to 1.6
tonnes. Its narrow working aisle
width is designed to save space,
leaving more room to store goods.
The RX 50 is a highly
manoeuvrable all-round truck for
warehouse or production areas.
Anticipated applications include
food and drink manufacturers,
printers, third party logistics, goods
in and out as well as multi-shift
operation in the automotive
industry, for example, to provide
material to production lines.
With a working aisle width of
2888mm, the overhead guard is
1980mm high and a chassis width of
990mm, it easily travels through
doors two metres high and one
metre wide.
The new RX 50 features the
energy saving feature Blue-Q as
standard, saving up to 12 per cent
energy depending on the application
and the equipment of the truck.
This is not only a plus for the
environment, because each Kw hour
less, not only saves 575 grams of
CO2 (according to
Umweltbundesamt, CO2-emission
factor 2009, as per March 2010) but
also means lower energy costs saving
up to 1000 Euros (based on a five
year multi-shift operation).
The large grab handle facilitates
safe and easy access when entering
and leaving the truck. The driver has
all the information available at a
glance and the hydraulic controls are
easy to operate. More articles from Still Materials Handling Ltd: |
