Choose ICE Cool Trucks Some of main problems of using a standard ICE truck in a recycling application include engines overheating and radiators getting clogged up due to dust, dirt and debris in the environment. Indoor waste paper stores also tend to have poor air circulation and are often confined spaces. The heavy-duty banding wire is another common issue if not carefully disposed of. It can be picked up and transferred to the transmission and axle of the fork lift truck during travel risking damage to exposed truck components. This costs businesses money in downtime and regular maintenance. The Hyster® ‘Cool Truck’ is a lift truck option specially designed to overcome these challenges, enhancing efficiency and reducing costs. Oil immersed brakes also help keep brakes and tyres cool in short shuttle or long run applications whilst preventing the ingress of paper debris into the braking system. “The Cool Truck is designed to enhance efficiency and reduce unnecessary expenditure specifically in the difficult environme nts of paper and recycling plants,” explains David. Options include a fully enclosed frame and vented hoods, side panels and radiator covers to reduce the vacuuming of dirt and debris from the floor into the engine. The ‘Cool Truck’, which is available as a modification both on Hyster® Fortens® lift trucks and heavy duty forklifts, has also been developed for use with a wide range of attachments, so can be tailored to suit specific applications. The Hyster® Duramatch transmission assists bulldozing applications. Its integrated Auto Deceleration System can reduce brake and tyre wear by up to 50% and Controlled Power Reversal reduces shocks through the transmission and helps prolong tyre life. The Hyster® DuraMatch transmission electronically controls braking, direction changes and ensures the Hyster® electric counterbalance trucks from 1.3 - 3.5 tonne capacity, and ICE counterbalance lift trucks from 1.6 - 5.5 tonne capacity are built by Hyster in its factory in Craigavon, Northern Ireland to the highest quality standards. Strict quality measures and testing help to ensure durability in the most demanding paper recycling operations, with, for instance, more durable paintwork, highly tested components and robust tyres. Extensive research and testing with paper recycling industry customers also helps to feed the design objectives of Hyster® trucks, ensuring the focus is on what owners and operators want and need. Quality service and maintenance support from the global network of local distribution partners is also key to a low cost of ownership. Choose for your application “Intelligently designed Hyster® forklift trucks are tough enough to support operational demands while delivering a low cost of operation,” adds David. “However, for maximum efficiency, we can help businesses identify which truck is the right choice to meet their specific application needs.” For more information about the extensive range of Hyster® trucks and solutions to support paper recycling operations visit www.hyster.eu. truck operates smoothly.
