CAT ECTCB series three-wheel electric lift trucks

CAT ECTCB series three-wheel electric lift trucks are suitable for a range of unit loads including pallets, pallet boxes and stillage cages.

The trucks, available from United Forklift and Access Solutions, are available in capacities from 1.3 to 2.0 tons. They have large battery capacities and versatile configurations that can be programmed at the power level that suits the lifting task.

The trucks’ energy regeneration system channels power back into the battery during simple activities like braking, plugging or decelerating, and trucks will shut down automatically after 15 minutes when left in standby mode.

The power control system provides good acceleration and the truck offers precise inching and control. Maintenance is reduced due to the absence of carbon brushes in the motors.

For warehouse applications, the trucks have a tight turning circle and rounded rear surfaces to enhance manoeuvrability and minimise collision and damage risks in confined spaces.

The maximum lift height of 7.5 m makes them suitable for most standard wide-aisle racking operations, and their clean operation makes them suitable for food, beverage, pharmaceutical and sensitive and refrigerated goods handling.

Hydraulic shock absorption reduces load impact caused by bumps, and the highly stable design means they can be cross-utilised to perform duties both inside and outside.

The trucks’ vacuum fluorescent display is located at the right front of the cab so as not to obstruct the driver’s view of the forks. The display is easy to read under direct sunlight and bright conditions.

The truck helps protect operators by initiating a series of protective actions if operators leave the normal seated operating position.
