shaw dash mh dot com trucks will be in production by the end of 2009
Dave, what is your website address?
thanks for the reply,nice to know you do have a monotrol planned for production,
i remember them as a butterfly pedal,same as yours
right=forward and left=reverse.
on the fork i have been using i got like 23 functions to control with my right hand while the left only gets to change the forward and reverse and do a bit of steering.(o and lets not forget the all inportant air conditioning)
another thing i haven,t found on any fork so far but is really useful is a wiper interval function.
and now while i,m at it how about a alignment mode for the sideshift while using a 20/40 spreader?
i see no need for tinted windows as it only creates more mirror images on the inside.
Have you got any real life pictures of this truck and not just cartoons as on the website? Have any actually been built yet as I see that your website says it will be in production early 2009??
Hi finn
Thank you for your imput we could possibly have a cab that could slide back further hydraulicly for lifting
on empty and laden container handling forklifts there is opption for leavers or joystick dependant on customer preferance. the hydrostatic transmission works on two pedal right foot for forward and left for revers. In the next four years all transmissions wil change and none of the manufactures will be using what they use now
hi Dave
i hope you do well with your new forklifts.
i had a look on the web and it looks nice.
i,m usually buzzy on a container fork and it be nice to talk with someone who designs them.(too late then)
for loading freight trains i like the cab forward (like on a smv)
for all other work i find the omega design with the cab on the back really handy for doing high lifts and it gives a better view when loading trucks.
i was wondering can the cab go back any more?(does it slide?)
is there plenty of legroom?
joystick control i presume.
and has it got a monotrol?
regards finn.
we are looking at ports and over heavy industry in asia and south america we wont have trucks
for sale just rental
Don't you think that starting off with a range that only caters from 10 ton to 18 ton, counter balance, will be restricting when the market is more geared to warehousing where the range that would be better suited would be from 2.5 ton to 5 ton ?
Steel companies do go for the odd counter balance in that range and timber is of course more sideoader, what exactly is the market that you are aiming at?
what makes this design so specail is that it can change with the customers needs. A diesel TQ ECH can be changed to a LPG hydrostatic or even an electric in under seven hours meaning it can meet the customers requirements.
hi truckman Like you have pionted out Linde do have a hydrostatic ECH our design meens that we can change to TQ if the customer requires that type of transmission. The Hydrostactic trucks will do well when customers get to know them
hi derek we know the side loader market and like you have pointed out it's not that good at the moment
we are not looking to enter that market the design have now changed and combi lift do verry well with there design. This dose show that if you bring a new design to market customers are more willing to change
Yup Sorry there Danny got confused with shaw sideloaders
I think you will find, if you look back through the thread, he has not mentioned anything about building sideloaders!!
Looking at the design etc I feel that you are going down the road to mimicing the Jumbo or Boss sideoader that Has been around for some years.
using the danfos system I believe for the traction control I would say that you dont realy stand a chance in the market where lancing/Terra have had the market for these machines for some years now.
It is only because the timber industry like BSW, Palgrave Brown , Finnforest have cut back or gone bust that the industry is now in a state of suspension.
THe steel industry has dropped considerably over the last year with companies like outoKumpo, Avesta and Corus all cutting back in production, THe useage of sideloaders is not realy a viable prospect.
Dave, I wish you well with your venture however I am not sure this has been thought through properly. Linde moved to hydrostatics a few years back and the response has been mixed - likewise the Liebherr machine has also struggled against TQ equivalents. The sector you are entering expects a supply upto 45 tonnes so you must be able to supply equivalent drive systems upto this mark. Customers will not wish to mix TQs and hydrostatic drives with drivers able to jump from one to the other. Also, I am not sure the hydrostatic braking effect is good for ECH handling at height - drivers prefer the run-out of a TQ.
Dave - the pics look good , my part of the world could use some hyster competition , if you could send me some info ( click on my screen name for my email )
i think i saw the picture too on the website
if thats the one WOW
thats a forklift for the 21st century
looks like linde might have some true competition
if you could send me some info too id appreciate that

cat had a hydrostat forklift
it was a massive failure lol
i think hyster tried once too
Dave,
If possible, can you send me a picture and some additional info.
Thanks !
Thanks its good to know what peoples opinions are it can help when we are making decisions and with out peoples imput it's can be hard to judge
I didn't mean to imply that your forklift idea is crazy, I was just using Walmart as an analogy. I am a huge defender of capitalism so I sincerely hope your idea works. The market ALWAYS benefits from increased competition.
