A lift truck to be a successful model should be built strong to last the working environments for many hours of use. It should be able to move cargo quickly and efficiently too. The equipment needs to be ergonomically correct and comfortable for the operator as well.
The Yale powertrain is reliable and rugged. It has to be powerful enough to continually provide incredible strength through its computer-managed transmission and engine. It offers state-of-the-art clutch packs combined with robust gears and really tough shafts. The engine, transmission, steer axle and drive are all isolated in order to lessen vibration and noise inside the compartment of the operator.
Mazda and GM LP & Gas Engines:
GM's gas engines and Mazda's LP engine use cast iron blocks to promote long life. These types of machinery offer an electronically-controlled closed loop fuel system that needs minimal repair or adjustment. These engines also have hardened exhaust valve seats which lessen wear.
Yanmar and Cummins Diesel Engines:
Inside the Yanmar and Cummins diesel engines, a high compression ratio offers excellent torque. Amazing fuel consumption is offered by effective fuel systems.
Standard Electronic Powershift Transmission:
The standard Electronic Powershift Transmission features gears that are 15% stronger and shafts which maximize resistance to rough driving. The durable clutch packs provide 3 times the life of previous packs. Lastly, there is electronic inching available that adjusts automatically in order to decrease maintenance needs by compensating for brake wear.
Techtronix Transmission:
The Techtronix Transmission uses computer-controlled power reversal to increase durability, extend the life of the tires and to eliminate shock loading. What's more, the auto deceleration feature lessens break pedal usage and break wear.
Drive Axle:
The Drive Axle is engineered for added strength with its full floating, brake drum mounting axle shaft and the pinion gears and strong ring. This part also has optional oil cooled wet disc brakes that are entirely sealed against contamination and basically maintenance free.
Steer Axle:
The Steer Axle features a "sandwich" design to protect the steer cylinder from damage and debris. It has fixed-length tie rods to add extra durability and stability. The tapered roller bearings help to resist side-to-side and front to back forces. Additionally, cast ductile iron axle reduces wear and increases toughness.
Yale had made lots of ergonomic features and safety features part of their regular packages. These equipment will handle tough settings, while keeping the operator comfortable and safe for the length of their shift.
