https://youtu.be/tFMwHHch-qA

Kalmar’s second generation of electrically powered terminal tractors, (also known as yard trucks) are available globally and will help improve the eco-efficiency of your operations while maintaining the highest levels of productivity and safety. With a range of modular battery options and charging solutions, we can work with you to design a solution that will deliver for your business.

What makes this the best electrically powered terminal tractor?

There are three big differences, and many small ones, that make our new generation of electrically powered terminal tractors the best. You will benefit from:

Charging time cut in half. Our first big change has been to incorporate a DC FastCharge System, which has allowed us to cut charging time in half.

No more transmission. The second is that we have removed the transmission from the driveline, moving to a direct drive solution where the electric motor powers the drive axle, reducing the complexity of the driveline.

Ability to operate in extreme temperatures. Thirdly we have included an Active Thermal Management System, which will allow your electric terminal tractor to operate optimally at full power in extreme temperatures.

What models are available?

There are five models available for you to choose from:

  • three specifically designed for distribution applications (including an on-road certified version available for North America – DOT approved)
  • two for container ports and terminals


Do I get a choice of batteries and chargers?

  • There are two different charging solutions available with charging capacities of 24-180kW.
  • Either 152kWh or 184kWh batteries.

How eco-efficient is an electric terminal tractor?

Being electrically powered, your terminal tractor (also know as yard truck) will produce zero carbon emission at source, reducing your carbon footprint and improving your environmental credentials. You can cut your carbon emissions even further by using green energy sources where available or start to generate and use your own power. Getting an electrically powered terminal tractor is only the start of your eco-efficient journey. And we will be with you every step of the way.

Does your warranty extend to batteries and chargers?

All Kalmar Ottawa Electric Terminal Tractors come with a standard 2 year/6000 hour warranty and a 7 year/1000 warranty hour for the frame. Charging solutions are covered for 2 years and batteries for up to 5 years. Kalmar also offers a full range of service packages and genuine parts to keep your terminal tractor operating optimally, minimising downtime and maximising availability levels.

What is the difference between a Terminal Tractor, Yard Truck or Shunt Truck?

Yard Trucks, Shunt Trucks and Terminal Tractors are exactly the same machine used for cargo handling at distribution, ports and terminals and industrial facilities. These are just the different names that are used in different parts of the world. At Kalmar we refer to them as Kalmar Terminal Tractors globally.

Adjustable full-suspension seat, low step height with grab bar handle, and spacious operator compartment provide a more comfortable experience for the operator. The hood-mounted levers are perfectly positioned and ergonomically designed for ease of use. And, the adjustable steer column allows for greater flexibility for the operator.

SOLID AND VERSATILE

The staggered and nested I-Beam upright allows for a shorter right-angle stack to help reduce lost loads, and to increase strength, stability, and visibility. The SE15-25T also boasts one of the tightest turning radii in the industry for indoor and narrow aisle applications, allowing for greater flexibility in narrow aisles. Finally, the carriage and roller design helps keep forks level and reduces carriage twist, ensuring your SE15-25T will be Built to Last.

ADVANCED COMPONENTRY

The interactive Smart Dash allows operators to have greater control and understanding of the lift truck’s operation, with audible and visible warnings and password protection allowing operators to make changes directly on the dash. The SE15-25T also comes standard with three performance modes to accommodate your application: Economy, Standard, and Power mode. And, with direct integration with several pieces of optional equipment, the Smart Dash puts the control of your lift truck at your operators’ fingertips.

LOW COST OF OWNERSHIP

The fully enclosed drive, lift, and steer motors prevent dirt and debris from entering the engine, reducing downtime, and leading to lower maintenance costs and a higher ROI. The all-electric braking system has no brake pads to wear down or fluids to check or leak. The electric steering allows for less overall energy consumption, leading to longer battery life. And, the electro-mechanical parking brakes, drive motors, and drive axles can be serviced without removing the upright, allowing for quick service.

Kalmar Electronic Stability Control

Barry Material Handling Equipment, Material Handling News , , , , , , ,

To comply with the standards set by the Department of Transport and the National Highway Traffic Safety Association for trucks that operate in approved applications, all new Kalmar Ottawa T2 Terminal Tractors can be equipped with an optional Electronic Stability Control system.

This added safety feature ensures safer load handling and is the first of its kind in the Terminal Tractor industry. When you order a new DOT/EPA compliant Kalmar Ottawa T2 Terminal Tractor with either a 116”, 126” or 136” wheelbase our new Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system can be fitted as an option. 

Enhanced Safety

Your new DOT/EPA compliant diesel truck not only can be fitted with ESC, it also has an Anti-Lock Braking System
(ABS) and a Traction Control System fitted. Making your truck even safer when being operated on public roads.

What is the Difference Between ABS and ESC?

Anti-locking braking systems stop your wheels from locking up when you apply the brakes, this allows for the driver to maintain control without the vehicle skidding. While the ESC system is able to apply the brakes to individual wheels to help maintain stability, particularly when the truck is at risk of jackknifing or spinning. This is done by the system automatically reducing the engine throttle and selectively applying the trucks brakes.

When is it Time to Update Your Equipment?

Barry Material Handling Equipment, New Forklifts , , ,

Even a well-maintained forklift fleet needs to be replaced at some point in time. Knowing exactly when can be a difficult thing to ascertain. Industry averages reveal that somewhere between 8,000 hours and 10,000 hours of use is when you’re going to reach an optimal point to replace your forklifts. Some questions to ask to help determine if it is time include:

  • What type of operation does each forklift perform each day? Does your forklift face harsh conditions like heat, dust, rough terrain or any other condition that would put undue stress on the engine, transmission or hydraulics?
  • Is your forklift put to the test each and every lift, lower and transport? Does it handle its maximum capacity more than half the time, or less?
  • Does your forklift do a lot of starting, stopping and backing up? Does it frequently conduct long runs in large open areas?
  • Have you adequately maintained the equipment using a regularly scheduled Planned Maintenance Program?
  • How has the cost of repairs for each unit changed over the past two to three years? A dramatic increase in repairs (not normal planned maintenance or normal wear parts) can indicate that you’re spending more than you should on repairs. A cost-per-hour analysis may be in order.

The not-so-obvious costs associated with worn forklifts is downtime, lost productivity and the short-term cost of replacing them with rentals. These costs may not show up on a unit’s cost per hour, but they are costs nonetheless. Keeping count of rentals due to downtime and repairs is essential in determining replacement, as new forklifts will all but eliminate your rentals due to downtime.

There are other reasons that may eliminate the guesswork and actually require you to replace your aging fleet:

  • Safety features are outdated and cannot be updated properly. For example, safety requirements may change and a new safety harness system would replace traditional seatbelts. Also, if safety options have improved fleet safety and the cost to update them would be prohibitive, it would be a good time to consider replacement.
  • If your forklifts are exhibiting signs of unsafe operating conditions like hydraulic failure, equipment shaking or jerking or leaking components, it’s likely time to replace the units.

Another reason to consider updating your forklift fleet are improvements in technology, hardware or performance. For example, now that electric forklifts have become more powerful and reliable outdoors, it could be a great time to consider replacing your IC forklifts.

As you can see, looking at the hour meter is not the sole solution that it used to be to consider replacement. We would be glad to consult with you to assess your fleet condition and help you determine if now is a good time to consider your forklift fleet retirement or replacement.

Taylor Zero Emission Top-Handlers Performing Well at the Port of Los Angeles

Barry Company News, Material Handling Equipment, New Forklifts

SAN PEDRO, Calif. – August 6, 2020 – The world’s first zero-emissions top handlers, unveiled last fall as part of a pre-commercial demonstration project at the Port of Los Angeles, are now being used in daily operations at the Everport Container Terminal. 

“We are pleased with performance results that we are receiving from drivers, mechanics and Everport management as the equipment is tested daily in real-world conditions,” said Port of Los Angeles Executive Director Gene Seroka. “We are doing everything possible to advance commercially feasible solutions to meet our goal of transitioning all cargo-handling equipment to zero emissions by 2030.” 

The two battery-electric top handlers were designed and built in the U.S. by Taylor Machine Works, Inc., a leading heavy-duty equipment manufacturer and the largest supplier of top handlers in service at the Port. Also known as top picks, top handlers are off-road vehicles with an overhead boom for loading containers weighing up to 100,000 pounds onto trucks and trains, unloading them, and stacking them on terminals between pickups and deliveries.

The top handlers run on a one-megawatt battery designed to operate for up to 18 hours between charges. Each top handler has a data logger for tracking hours of operation, charging frequency, energy usage and other performance indicators. Additionally, drivers and mechanics are providing input on the maneuverability, noise level and safety of the equipment. 

The battery-electric top handlers are a key component of the Port’s $7.7 million Everport Advanced Cargo-Handling Demonstration Project. The California Energy Commission (CEC) is supporting the large-scale zero-emissions technology project with a $4.5 million sustainability grant. 

The Everport demonstration is one of 16 projects in which the Port is either the lead agency or a participant working with multiple partners to test near-zero emissions and zero-emissions engines, emissions control technology, and alternative fueling and charging stations.

In addition to the battery-electric top handlers, the projects include testing ultra-low NOx renewable natural gas equipment and fully battery-electric fuel cell heavy-duty trucks; battery-electric forklifts, yard tractors, and rubber-tired gantry cranes; and emissions control equipment on large ships and harbor craft. 

Eliminating tailpipe emissions from cargo-handling equipment is essential to achieving the Port’s larger goal of reducing greenhouse gases (GHGs) from all port-related sources. Port targets call for reducing GHGs 40% below 1990 levels by 2030 and 80% below 1990 levels by 2050. 

The Port of Los Angeles remains open with all terminals operational during the COVID-19 pandemic. North America’s leading seaport by container volume and cargo value, the Port of Los Angeles facilitated $276 billion in trade during 2019. San Pedro Bay port complex operations and commerce facilitate one in nine jobs in the five-county Southern California region.
