Clark has expanded the S-Sequence Electrical with new three- and four-wheel forklifts. The brand new STE and SE collection with a load capability of 1.6 to 2 tonnes and a most carry peak of as much as 7075 mm replaces the GTX and GEX collection within the 48-volt phase.
The four-wheel forklift vehicles, with a steering angle of 101° (Zero Steer Flip Axle), are suited to slim aisles or space-critical work areas as they’ll flip nearly on the spot.
With the brand new autos with a lithium-ion battery (460 Ah and non-compulsory 280 Ah), Clark says that the operator advantages from brief charging occasions. The Li-ion expertise extends the battery service life, reduces working prices and permits versatile multi-shift operation due to intermediate and quick charging functionality.
As with the S-Sequence Electrical, the operator additionally has the choice of adjusting the automobile’s power supply and adapting the software program accordingly within the occasion of adjusting utility necessities. The forklift vehicles could be operated with the basic lead-acid battery with a most of 625Ah and may also be switched again to the Clark lithium-ion battery if required.
Two drive motors within the parallel entrance drive, every with an output of 4.4kW and 48V three-phase AC expertise, guarantee fast acceleration and travelling speeds of as much as 16km/h. Put on-free regenerative braking with the engine brake and computerized velocity discount when cornering may also be set as required.
The S-Sequence Electrical can be designed in line with the Constructed to Final idea. It contains moist, maintenance-free multi-disc brakes, a electronically protected gearbox, a vibration-free steering axle for as much as 50% much less effort when braking, carry masts from Clark’s personal manufacturing with 6-roller fork carriage and carry mast damping, and the absolutely welded frames which can be normal at Clark. The multi-disc brakes with oil cooling, for instance, additionally show their value on moist or dusty surfaces due to their highly effective braking impact.
Contained in the cab, the STE/SE collection includes a alternative of adjustable seats with air or mechanical suspension. The lean of the steering column could be individually adjusted to swimsuit the operator. The pedals are automotive-compliant. The automobile could be operated both by way of adjustable mini levers built-in into the armrest or by way of ergonomically organized hydraulic levers on the automobile bonnet. The intuitive switching of the route of journey on the hydraulic or mini-lever takes the pressure off the driving force, as he doesn’t have to succeed in spherical to change.
In keeping with Clark, the STE/SE collection has been designed so the operator has an excellent view to the entrance of the forks and the load to make sure a excessive degree of security when travelling straight forward and when loading and unloading masses. That is ensured by a big viewing window and the nested mast profiles.
The splash-proof 5-inch color show offers data on all vital automobile parameters. Security and warning messages are displayed in 26 languages. When utilizing the non-compulsory SafeView HD all-round digicam, the picture is transmitted to an HD color show in order that the operator has an excellent overview of the actions on his route when reversing.
The SafeView HD digicam system is a totally digital HD digicam with 1280 x 720 pixels (16:9) and three wide-angle cameras (left/rear/proper) put in on the truck in addition to a 10-inch touchscreen. The operator can select between totally different views as required (chicken’s eye view, cut up display screen view and 3D view).
Additional non-compulsory security options can be found to maximise security. The load weight indicator measures the burden of the load on the forks and helps to stop the truck from being overloaded.
With the Vertical Mast System (VMS), which can be non-compulsory, a tilt sensor mechanically brings the mast right into a vertical place in order that items could be loaded and unloaded shortly and safely. The VMS positions the mast vertically each when tilting forwards and backwards and equalises the automobile place on uneven flooring or ramps.
Secure use on sloping terrain or ramps is assured by the mechanically participating electrical parking brake. This prevents the truck from unintentionally accelerating or rolling backwards and ensures that the operator all the time has the automobile below management.
Clark gives further choices for various functions. For the three and four-wheel forklift vehicles within the S-Sequence, non-compulsory gear contains varied cabs, equivalent to rain safety (metal roof), climate safety (metal roof and windscreen), partial (metal roof, entrance and rear windscreen and PVC aspect panelling) and full cabs, mini levers or mechanical levers, blue LED warning lights, orange seat belt, attachments and extra security choices.
