In order to be a successful model, a lift truck needs to be powerful enough to last in all working conditions for numerous hours of use. It must be able to move cargo effectively and quickly too. The machine should be both ergonomically correct and comfortable for the operator too.
The Yale powertrain is rugged and reliable. It has to be strong enough to always deliver incredible strength through its computer-managed transmission and engine. It offers state-of-the-art clutch packs combined with really tough shafts and robust gears. The transmission, engine, drive and steer axle are all isolated to be able to lessen noise and vibration inside the compartment of the operator.
GM & Mazda LP & Gas Engines:
Mazda's LP engine and GM's gas engines utilize cast iron blocks to promote long life. These types of equipment provide an electronically-controlled closed loop fuel system which needs minimum adjustment or repair. These kinds of engines also have hardened exhaust valve seats that lessen wear.
Cummins and Yanmar Diesel Engines:
Within the Cummins and Yanmar diesel engines, a high compression ratio offers exceptional torque. Remarkable fuel consumption is offered by efficient fuel systems.
Standard Electronic Powershift Transmission:
The electronic powershift transmission is standard on nearly all machinery. It features gears that are 15 percent stronger and shafts which give resistance when driving on rough environment. The strong clutch packs offer 3 times the life of previous packs. Lastly, there is electronic inching available which adjusts automatically so as to reduce maintenance needs by compensating for brake wear.
Techtronix Transmission:
The Techtronix Transmission utilizes computer-controlled power reversal to extend the life of the tires, to eliminate shock loading and increase durability. In addition, the auto deceleration feature reduces brake wear and brake pedal usage.
Drive Axle:
Made for extra strength, the drive axle features its brake drum mounting, full floating axle shaft and the pinion gears and strong ring. This component also has optional oil cooled wet disc brakes which 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 more durability and stability. The tapered roller bearings help to resist side-to-side and front to back forces. Moreover, cast ductile iron axle lessens wear and increases toughness.
Yale had made many safety features and ergonomic features part of their standard packages. These machinery will handle tough settings, while keeping the operator both safe and comfortable for the length of their shift.
