Contact usWhether you're a construction professional, warehouse manager, or logistics expert, understanding the ins and outs of 16-tonne Komatsu forklift hire will empower you to make informed decisions and maximize operational efficiency. With Komatsu’s hydrostatic drive system, standard wet disc brakes, and Closed-center Load Sensing hydraulic system (CLSS), the Hydrostatic Lift Truck of the FH series achieves reduced costs of operation and reduced maintenance costs.
The FH series is designed to handle a variety of demanding, high-cycle operations. Its rugged designs and field-proven components make it capable of withstanding the toughest conditions. The wet disc brakes, for instance, are extremely durable, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. With the electronically controlled hydrostatic transmission, operators can easily and smoothly maneuver the forklift.
One of the standout Komatsu 10-16 Ton Forklift, FH series is its low cost of ownership. With reduced maintenance costs and lower operation costs, the FH series offers significant savings over its competitors. The Closed-center Load Sensing hydraulic system (CLSS) reduces operation costs by optimizing fuel efficiency. Additionally, the FH series is equipped with KOMTRAX Machine Monitoring, which enables operators to monitor and optimize operations accordingly. This exclusive information data management system ensures maximum efficiency, resulting in further cost savings.
The FH series is equipped with a new diesel engine that meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final standards. Compared to other makes, the FH series achieves superior efficiency, reducing fuel consumption by up to 30%. This advanced technology not only benefits the environment but also reduces operating costs.
The FH series comes with several operator benefits, including a non-slip step, a wide floor mat, hour meter, and improved gauges. These features ensure operator safety, comfort, and convenience. The improved gauges, for instance, provide real-time feedback, allowing operators to make informed decisions.
The FH series incorporates field-proven technologies used in Komatsu's engineering construction. These technologies have been tested and proven in some of the most challenging environments, ensuring that the FH series is reliable, efficient, and durable. Its advanced technology, superior efficiency, and low cost of ownership make it an excellent investment for any operation. With KOMTRAX Machine Monitoring and several operator benefits, the 8 Ton Forklift FH series ensures maximum efficiency, operator safety, and convenience.
KOMTRAX, a standard feature on the FH series, is Komatsu’s remote equipment and fleet monitoring system. Leading-edge wireless technology and a secure, user-friendly web-based application provide critical information…anytime, anywhere. KOMTRAX tells us where your machines are, what they are doing, and how they are doing it providing total fleet management capabilities for improved fleet utilization, reduced downtime and lower owning and operating costs.
The Oil Cooled wet disc braking system can withstand approximately 10 years or 10,000hrs without maintenance. The wet disc brake system is sealed with oil to block dust penetration, providing durable, water resistant and fade resistant characteristics. Smooth, stable braking provides productivity and reliability in demanding operations. The oil in a wet disc brake system is circulated through the brake oil cooler. This mechanism ensures stable braking under a heavy work load and prevents deterioration of the braking force that could be caused by raised oil temperatures.
The FH series forklift offers a park brake alarm, ability to change direction without releasing the accelerator pedal and without the switchback shocks of torque converter models. In addition, there is no creeping because the machine only moves when the accelerator is pressed.
This function prevents the starter motor from turning again if the key is turned while the engine is already running, protecting against ring gear wear.
Komatsu’s CLSS hydraulic system has been utilized in our hydraulic excavators for many years. The load sensing capability automatically senses loading and the variable displacement pump then supplies only the amount of hydraulic fluid needed to do the job. This provides for much greater efficiency than conventional fixed displacement gear pumps, making good use of engine power to reduce overall fuel consumption.
In the HST system, the diesel powered engine drives the pump and oil supplied from the pump then rotates the motor that drives the forklift. The power losses over the entire engine speed range are minimal. Since the HST system does not have a clutch, there is no possibility of heat loss or slippage. This means power transmission losses are minimized to reduce fuel consumption.
The feature of Komatsu 10-16 Ton Forklift ensures safe work by reducing speeds in tight spaces and keeping the forklift trucks within specific in-plant speed or environmental limitations. The FH series offers speed limiter settings for: 5 km/h, 8 km/h, 15 km/h, and 23.5 km/h. The travel speed limiter function can be switched on or off even while the machine is moving.
