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