Electric Forklifts E16 – E20 P (four-wheeled forklift truck)

The E16 – E20 P offer a comfortable and ergonomic workplace that helps avoid fatigue and allows operators to concentrate throughout long shifts. The mast, power unit and steering axle are decoupled from the chassis by elastomer ring bearings. This improves shock absorption and protects the driver from harmful human vibrations in the event of an uneven floor. The spacious operator’s cab has a full-graphic 3.5-inch display and user-friendly controls. A large selection of comfortable seats with different backrests, upholstery and suspension types provides a relaxed sitting position. The closed cab trucks are available with heating and air conditioning as standard for optimum temperatures in every working situation. The innovative Linde Steer Control operating system with mini-wheel or joystick is available as an option instead of a steering wheel. It reduces physical strain on the operator and facilitates precise manoeuvring.

The E16 – E20 P impress with their exceptional manoeuvrability. The four-wheeled version with the Linde combi-steering axle ensures maximum stability. With speeds of up to 20 km/h, they are the ideal choice for fast transport journeys and ensure maximum handling performance in the warehouse. The 48-volt technology provides the perfect balance of performance, efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Their modular design means the forklift trucks can be equipped with different energy storage systems, from lead-acid to Li-ION to fuel cells. Existing batteries can continue to be used without any problems. Thanks to the plug-and-play principle, it is possible to switch between lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries at any time. Battery replacement in multi-shift operation is a straightforward matter thanks to the side battery door and the frame that opens downwards. An optional on-board charger allows for fast charging, irrespective of location. The forklift trucks integrate seamlessly into digital processes and can be maintained remotely.

The robust design of the E16 – E20 P ensures low service costs and high truck availability. The drive axle with the integrated electric motors and the converter are protected against dust and water as a sealed unit and are largely maintenance-free. For fast, straightforward maintenance, service technicians have easy access to all relevant components. To facilitate the daily inspection of the lead-acid battery, the forklift truck also has a hinged battery cover. Optimised service processes based on wireless transmission and analysis of truck data help to avoid unnecessary downtime. An overall inspection is only required after 1,000 operating hours. The first hydraulic oil and hydraulic oil filter change is only due after 6,000 hours (about three years).
