The Combi-CBE4 is yet another award-winner for
Combilift. The world's first counterbalance design, multidirectional forklift with electric drive on all of its three wheels, was the outright winner in the hotly contested Innovation Category at the FLTA Awards for Excellence, held virtually in April 2021 having been postponed from 2020.
The independent electric traction of each of the front and rear drive wheels guarantees 100% traction control and negates the need for differential lock when it is operating on wet or slippery surfaces. By inputting the wheel-base parameters, the traction commands are calculated by the control system. As the truck drives and steers, the speed and rotational direction of the wheels are controlled independently, allowing the truck to negotiate tight turns with minimal tyre wear. A major advantage of this is precise acceleration and deceleration control for the operator, significantly reducing long load momentum twisting when travelling sideways. Each electric drive incorporates parking and regenerative dynamic braking for power efficiency. AC electric drive means that there are no mechanical brushes to maintain or replace.
CBE All Wheel Drive - Award Winning Multidirectional Truck
This 4t forklift answers the growing market demand for higher capacity, powerful performance electric forklifts which offer quieter operation and which comply with ever more stringent guidelines for reduced exhaust emissions. It combines the benefits of very compact dimensions, multidirectional ability and the capability to handle long loads as well as pallets, making it a universal indoor/outdoor truck which can replace a number of other types for more cost effective and efficient operation.
It can work inside containers, offload from HGVs, bring product directly to racking or free stacking areas, block stack as well as feed production lines. The components used are all standard components from mainstream manufacturers, easily available anywhere in the world for straightforward maintenance and service. The four-way directional lever is easy to use, making the transition from forward to reverse directional modes through to the sidewards directional modes intuitive and effortless.
