Kalmar Container Handlers Corpus Christi

Performance

The overall result of how well the equipment's functions work together is categorized by the performance of the equipment. The overall efficiency of the machine is determined by a combination of lifting speed, visibility, user-friendliness and capacity.



The engine and the machinery working hydraulics go through extreme lifting, that places intense demands on the machine. The lifting component is just a part of the operating cycle. Prior to the equipment being able to unload or load, the demands are placed on effective brakes, tight turning radius with high pulling process and precise control. All of these functions have to be able to operate in an optimum fashion, even after heavy usage.



Engine

Every model of empty container handlers are equipped with straight six cylinder turbo charged engines that are outfitted with intercooler. The engines are adapted to the specific working conditions of empty container handling. These conditions include high torque levels and high power at low engine speeds.



Presently in the industry, the engines of current units follow the stringent legal environment demands. The engines provide low noise and vibration levels, low exhaust emission levels, low fuel consumption characterize all engine options.



Transmission

All of the trucks in the series are equipped with exceptional and extremely durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For fast acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has integrated gearbox and torque converter. The gear changing is electrically accomplished by solenoid valves. These provide 3 forward and 3 reverse gears that are controlled by means of a multifunction lever which is easily operated.



Drive Axle

The rugged drive axles have engineered to handle the various working settings in ports and terminals. All axles have reduction in 2 stages - hub reduction and differential. These features ensure a minimum of strain on the transmission system. Additionally, the drive axles are fitted with a hydraulic braking system.



Service Brake System

Wet Disc Brakes that have oil cooled discs that are alternately fixed to and rotating with the hub equip all empty container handlers. When the brakes are engaged, the discs are pressed together by hydraulic pressure from the brake pedal. This provides effective braking to the unit. The system can deal with heavy loads over a long period of time and is practically maintenance free. This particular system offers no fade and requires no need for brake adjustments.
