Greater efficiency, less fuel
Kalmar, part of Cargotec, has unveiled its new K-Motion solution, which is embedded into the programming of the Kalmar Gloria reachstacker, increasing efficiency and productivity by elevating uptime, ergonomics and safety, while reducing fuel consumption and running costs.
The Kalmar K-Motion solution increases precision in both low and high drive speed modes, with the smart control system splitting the power to increase overall drive and lift efficiency. The fine-tuned joystick also delivers more precise driving.
As the less efficient torque converter has been replaced by hydrostatic technology, the throttle works as an actual speed throttle. The combination of hydrostatic and mechanical technologies delivers a more efficient transmission and allows for a downsized engine. This reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions, giving reductions of up to 40% without compromising drive and lift power.
