Forklift News - Meclift Variable Reach Truck ML 5012R

Oy Meclift Ltd, a Finnish manufacturer of Variable Reach Trucks and Side Reach Stackers, launches its Variable Reach Truck ML 5012R for heavy lift applications. The first truck is delivered to an Italian customer for in-ship stone handling.

The Variable Reach Truck ML 5012R has a lifting capacity of 50 tonnes at a load center of 1.2 meters. It is characterized by a reach feature which enables it to handle heavy loads from locations impossible for the straight-masted trucks. The compact truck is capable of operating in confined space indoors or outdoors. Thanks to its telescopic twin booms, the truck has a relatively low overall height. Combined with a toplift container spreader it could be used for on-board ro-ro activities. The direct hydraulic lifting is also simpler to maintain.

The horizontal telescopic twin boom configuration and hydraulically movable cabin design offer excellent visibility and comfort for the driver. The truck is equipped with electrically controlled, low emission Volvo engine, ZF transmission and electrically controlled load sensing hydraulics and variable displacement pumps, combined with CanBus technology for reliable operation.

The machine has a maximum lift height of 6.55 m with forks and outreach of 2.25 m. With the machine length of 7.7 m (without forks), width of 3.8 m and turning radius 7 m it is the most compact lift truck on the market in its lifting capacity range.
