Heavy Duty IC Forklift Truck
The Hangcha Heavy Duty IC Forklift Truck is a high-tonnage diesel forklift offering a 38,000kg to 48,000kg capacity, a Cummins QSM11 engine, a DANA TE30 transmission, and a Kessler D102 axle.
Formulated to support super-heavy cargo and container handling inside steel mills and port shipping lanes, this 48-ton diesel forklift is Hangcha's largest forklift. It features a DANA TE30 transmission and Kessler D102 heavy-load drive axle. Seat operator presence sensing (OPS) locks functions when empty, supported by FIMS cloud smart telematics.
Key Features
- 48-Ton Lifting Capacity: Hangcha's largest forklift chassis engineered for heavy coil and container runs.
- Seat OPS Lockout: Operator Presence System that locks out travel and lift valves if the operator leaves the seat.
- DANA TE30 Transmission: Proportional heavy-duty automatic transmission designed to smooth out torque changes.
- FIMS Cloud Telematics: Smart forklift management system yielding remote fuel and diagnostic tracking.
Why is the seat OPS safety lockout vital for 48-ton class forklift operations?
Moving a 48-ton payload carries high momentum. If an operator steps out of the cabin without setting the hand brake or falls during a maneuver, the truck can cause catastrophic damage. The seat OPS system detects occupant presence, locking hydraulic and travel gears instantly if empty.
