Jungheinrich achieves new heights with Series 5 counterbalance trucks
24 June 2016Just two years after the launch of its series 3 and 4 hydrodynamic drive counterbalance trucks, Jungheinrich is extending its robust internal combustion series.
The Jungheinrich Series 5 features lifting capacities of 4, 4.5 and 5 tonnes, and these universally applicable fork trucks have torque converters which deliver high throughput rates.
These hydrodynamic stackers are particularly strong over medium and long outdoor travel routes, featuring a soft, gentle approach and an ideal degree of efficiency at medium and high speeds. The Series 5 trucks' globally proven Kubota industrial engines have a number of key benefits, including reduced fuel consumption, lower emissions, superior noise suppression and high torque even at low revs.
These engines were especially designed for forklifts, providing maximum reliability over many years of use.
The efficiency-optimised Jungheinrich transmission shaft features an integrated non-wear wet multi-disc brake characterised by its high reliability and low service costs compared with standard drum brakes.
The driver workspace is designed for driver comfort and effectiveness, affording generous legroom thanks to the narrow and easily adjustable steering column.
