Clark introduced the brand new Crossover collection to the general public for the primary time at LogiMAT in Stuttgart. In keeping with the economic truck specialist, the Crossover fashions mix some great benefits of environmentally pleasant electrical forklift vehicles with the robustness of conventional diesel and LPG forklift vehicles.
The 2 new crossover collection L25-35XE, referred to as Raider, and S25-35XE, referred to as Renegade, with load capacities of two.5 to three.5 tonnes are mounted on the Clark chassis of IC engine-powered forklift vehicles. This has the benefit that the crossover electrical forklift vehicles not solely have the excessive floor clearance of IC vehicles, but additionally the correspondingly bigger and extra sturdy tires and higher legroom for the operator. This equips the automobiles completely for outside use – particularly on uneven terrain or bumps.
The crossover vehicles additionally obtain comparable values to combustion engines by way of driving velocity, working aisle width, turning radius and climbing means.
Due to water-protected elements, such because the IP54 safety (mud and splash-proof) of the drive and hydraulic motor, they can be utilized in damp working environments or open air in dangerous climate with none issues.
The highly effective emission-free lithium-ion batteries based mostly on lithium iron phosphate expertise (Li-FePO4) additionally guarantee a robust drive with lengthy working occasions and brief charging occasions. Totally different battery capacities and chargers can be found relying on the ability requirement, together with an onboard charger built-in into the automobile. This allows quick and versatile recharging anytime and anyplace – indoors or open air.
The Raider collection (L25-35XE) opens the door to the crossover section. It presents operators an environmentally pleasant and strong different to forklift vehicles with combustion engines. The automobiles are characterised by glorious all-round visibility, predictable dealing with and an ergonomic driver’s seat with beneficiant foot area.
The electrical drive ensures highly effective acceleration thanks to instantly obtainable most torque and optimum energy supply. The sturdy Raider reaches a most driving velocity of 19km/h.
Due to the all-round view of the load and the environment, protected operation is assured. The clever association of the controls reduces the bodily pressure on the driving force and permits simple operation with out pointless arm and shoulder actions. The absolutely suspended snug seat absorbs shocks and vibrations on uneven floor. The ramp operate prevents unintentional acceleration or rolling backwards on ramps and inclines.
The Raider collection is provided with a contemporary 4.3-inch LCD color show that gives data on all necessary driving parameters. Three using modes can be found to adapt the using traits to the applying: H (Excessive), S (Commonplace) and E (Eco). For added security, the L25-35XE collection is provided with the Operator Presence System (OPS). The OPS routinely switches off the hydraulic and drive capabilities when the operator leaves the driving force’s seat. The truck can solely be moved when the operator is seated and in command of the automobile.
To adapt the Raider to totally different functions, Clark presents, for instance, totally different driver’s seats, blue LED warning lights as a visible reversing warning, further hydraulic capabilities for attachments, fork positioners with sideshift operate.
The Clark Renegade (S25-35XE) is designed for operators who need the advantages of the Clark S-Sequence. Constructed on the confirmed chassis of the S-Sequence IC engine-powered forklifts, the fashions, just like the S-Sequence Electrical, have an improved vary of security options, customisable choices and most consolation.
In keeping with Clark, the Renegade combines Li-ion expertise with a strong, ergonomically optimised automobile body and tried-and-tested elevate masts from our personal manufacturing with 6-roller fork carriage. Its emission-free and low-noise operation makes the Renegade the best selection for functions in blended areas the place the main target is on quiet work processes. The automobile achieves a sound stress stage on the driver’s ear of lower than 65 dB(A).
Due to its versatile security capabilities and intensive choices, the S25-35XE might be flexibly tailored to the person necessities of a variety of industries and functions. The whole ramp cease ensures protected use on ramps, for instance if the automobile is steadily used for truck loading. The roll-back safety prompts the automated parking brake and thus prevents the automobile from rolling backwards.
The ergonomic driver’s office presents most consolation. The slim steering column presents the operator beneficiant legroom, whereas the optimally positioned step ensures protected and cozy entry and exit. The hydraulic levers, ergonomically mounted subsequent to the driving force’s seat with built-in course change, allow intuitive and easy management. The operator enjoys glorious all-round visibility. All these options cut back further stress components for the driving force and permit protected and environment friendly work.
The Renegade’s good show gives all necessary driving parameters at a look. Amongst different issues, it reveals the battery standing, error codes and working hours in a clearly structured method. The data is on the market in varied languages. The driving traits, akin to acceleration and braking behaviour, might be individually tailored to the operator’s necessities through the 5-inch color show. When utilizing a reversing digital camera, the picture is transmitted on to the color show which means the driving force at all times has an outline of the route and environment, even when reversing. The elective load weight show can also be proven to the driving force through the Good Show, rising security throughout load dealing with.
The intensive elective gear of the Renegade collection consists of totally different cabs akin to rain safety (metal roof), climate safety (metal roof and windshield), partial (metal roof, entrance and rear windshield) and full cabs, mini levers built-in within the armrest with course change or mechanical levers, blue LED warning lights as a visible reversing warning, reversing digital camera, load weight show, Clark VMS system, USB charging port for charging cellular gadgets, attachments and extra security choices.
“We’re delighted to launch the Raider and Renegade crossover electrical forklift ranges, which not solely considerably improve effectivity, but additionally guarantee environmentally pleasant and sustainable materials dealing with,” explains Thomas Bach, director R&D at Clark Europe. “The Raider and Renegade crossover electrical forklift vehicles are the right resolution for firms that wish to stay aggressive in an ever-changing logistics world.”
