Linde 10-16 tonne torque convertor

Anybody seen the launch of the new Linde 10-16 tonne torque converter
truck, made in China for the Global market?

Wonder if it is as robust as the 1401 hydrostatic it will probably replace

Well flt , you are allowed your say even if i don't agree with this, You are perfectly with in your rights to put your point of view across, But to say i knock other OME'S i think you mean Linde because this is the company you work for or worked for i would just like to point out that saying something that is true is not bashing another company.

The only points i have put on hear about Linde were as follows.

First when Weichai power bought a majority stake in KION the ultimate owner of Linde and purchased 75 percent of Linde hydraulics linde firstly said this was not true when forkliftaction asked them on this, it was then they had to say yes. In fact Weichai power are now KION biggest share holder with around 40 percent and a lot of Linde development is now done in China

Second was the Closing of Merthyr again you might of been one of the management team who went into meltdown trying to find out how we knew your plans to lay off over one hundred people who had given many years of good service to the company. I don't regret any post i made about merthyr because it let people who should of known what was happening. I have been thanked by some that worked at merthyr for letting them know what was planed for them.

Thirdly the Linde 1411 that this post is about , You claimed the 1411 is a premium truck when a lot of people might agree to say they is no such product as a premium forklift. The 1411 is well below average for this range of trucks and compared with Hyster , kalmar, kone , the top three in the market it will struggle with sale. from what i have herd it is already struggling with sales. Now like i said before you are entitled to your opinion, but it just might be that Linde have now lowered their expectations on products or mine are just higher

Fourth our product you make out that we have never produced a truck and that we are just some one who thinks they are a manufacture , well i would like to inform you that all our truck are based on truck we have prefer-sly manufactured. When i started this project i admit i was on my own now i have a team working with me that will bring the truck to market and we have already have customers willing to take the trucks. Now that is not to say we will be up their with the real companies in the big truck market like Hyster Kalmar and Kone next year but we will be there within five years. UBER have from what i know never made a profit but they are the most valued start up ever


As for photos or videos of the truck that is for our marketing people to release when they are ready to do so.


what i will say on this matter is we are well on our way with the project now and will soon be ready to make a statement about a couple of brand purchases later this year that were in the market some years ago and are not now but will be again


So please carry on with your opinions it makes us just work harder to show people like you that if you work hard and believe in your product and team you will get there in the end. The end might be one , two three or even ten years but you will get there


WHEN YOU ALWAYS BELIEVE IN YOUR SELF , YOUR PRODUCT AND YOUR TEAM

I used to work for Linde in Merthyr.

I've looked at your website and it still says "Coming in 2014" and the rubbish on LinkedIn doesn't mean anything. I could create a few data sheets and publish some posts about forklift trucks and tell everyone I'm a manufacturer.

It's obvious to everyone that you still haven't produced any trucks, and you won't in the near future, otherwise you'd be telling everyone about it and showing us all the photos and videos of your trucks working.

You should stop bashing real OEM's until you have your own successful products in the field working.

Where s truck is developed. Does that mean that if it is European then it's premium because both Sany and Heli trucks were designed in Italy and they use the same parts as the Linde with a Volvo engine

As for our product you other sly don't use LinkedIn try saudiexalt


I take you work at Linde again Chinese manufacture is Chinese manufacture you like to say Linde is Premium product but a lot of Linde trucks are now developed in China and manufactured in China, in fact KION who own Linde is now Majority owned Chinese company and Linde won't be in trucks over ten ton by the time tier V come out

As far as I'm aware the 1401 and 1411 trucks were/are designed and developed by the team in Merthyr. They use the best components available on the market and go through a huge amount of testing. I think this means they can be called Premium.

Tier 5 will be required in 2019/20 depending on engine power. Maybe Exalt will have updated their website, and delivered some trucks by then?

Linde has always had the hydrostatic truck problem is its just to dear, Evan moving production to the Czech Republic has not made it competitive


Interesting how you describe the torque converter truck will this mean all the other Chinese manufactures can be called premium manufactures like Sany Heli maximal as the Linde torque truck is manufactured in China


The market in Europe will soon be tier v

I understand that Linde will soon be releasing the Tier 4 final version of their 1401 hydrostatic truck with a Cummins power plant. So it seems they will carry both premium torque converter and hydrostatic heavy trucks, both available worldwide in T3 and T4 final specifications. Seems like the perfect solution to me, the customer can choose what drive-line they want and doesn't have to compromise on quality.

I'm sure the people who would like to know our trucks will be available for rental in North America from 5.ton - 16 ton before the end of this year. So really people will be able to judge our product for them self they won't need me to say how good they are they will be able to see

Ok Danny That well Know nanufacture called Shaw who produced the first sideloaders, the first multi directional side loaders the first jack less sideloader, the first full Hydrostatic forklift, and the first fully modual constructed forklift. Just shows how much you don't Know.

And before any one says well Linde produced the first Fully Hydrostatic forklifts , Untill the 90's when Linde worked with Eaton on their system the Linde was a semi hydrostatic forklift working threw gears.


But then agian Danny you run such a successful dealership it was shut down

oh that well known manufacturer Shaw, well proven my ***!
As if Linde are going to look at a tin pot outfit to see what engines they are using and copy them!
There's a lot of dreaming going on in this thread.

Well first the 1411 has only been round since about two years ago the work started at the end of myther our product is well proven we had many trucks workingon this platform when we were Shaw.So it dose not only looks good on paper it is well proven as well


When we first looked at the project we selected the MTU engine and four years ago we looked at Perkins before Linde..When we start production again people will say we have copied Linde.when in fact we were many years ahead of linde

Big Al,

I believe you are correct.

Exalt,

Most major OEM's are going to have something in testing at least a couple of years before they even announce what engine is in the truck. Something may look good on paper but until you actually put it out in the field you are not going to find out if it is a good choice or not.

I think Linde have had a prototype truck running with the MTU engine for almost 3 years. Well before they closed Merthyr site. You haven't even built a truck as far as I'm aware...
