Now you say i avoid answering question but nobody has answerd a simple question of

Now because all of you are so expert in IC forklift tell one company that is not a clone of the oringinal Clark design


So like i have said you all seem to be experts on this subject but one of you can answer this very simple question. Is it because you know the answer but would have to agree with me all IC forklifts are basic clones of the original Clark product. yes there have been advancements in transmissions like hydrostatic or hybrids. But the princeipal design has not changed.

A 16 ton forklift can not be shipped in a standard 40' container with out being stripped down first. So if a 16 ton forklift was manufactured in Europe and then sold in North America, it would have to be assembled tested then dis assembled for shipping. What we do is just test the moduduals then ship the truck in modular format in standared 40' containers then we can assemble that at our nearest depot before delivering them to customer. The cost saving on this is quite large. just to build a 16 ton forklift takes around 200 hours for a traditional OEM then they have dismaltiling time and re assembly time for shipping. The time it takes us the Build a 16 ton forklift is 100 hours and if the truck is having to be shipped overseas we don't need to disassemble it.
