FAQs
What makes the CQD16/20RVF2 different from other reach trucks?
The CQD16/20RVF2 stands out for its combination of high lifting performance, advanced mast stability, and low noise operation. Its newly designed I-beam mast and upgraded hydraulic system reduce vibration and noise by up to 10 dB, while providing exceptional visibility and precision at lift heights up to 12 meters.
What are the key performance specifications of the CQD16/20RVF2?
The CQD16/20RVF2 offers load capacities of 1.6–2.0 tons, a maximum lift height of 12 meters, and travel speeds up to 11 km/h. Its lift motor power reaches 13 kW, delivering excellent torque for heavy stacking and efficient vertical lifting. Combined with its AC powertrain and electric steering, it provides smooth, stable, and energy-efficient performance.
How does the new hydraulic system improve operator comfort?
The truck features an optimized hydraulic pump that reduces operational noise and vibration by 10 decibels, creating a quieter, smoother, and more stable experience for the operator. This not only improves comfort but also minimizes fatigue and extends component life — making it ideal for long shifts in high-density warehouses.
What features enhance stacking precision and visibility at high lift heights?
The CQD16/20RVF2 is equipped with a mechanical height indicator, allowing operators to accurately position forks at different rack levels. The I-beam mast design, offset hydraulic tubing, and wide-view mast window provide excellent visibility and precision control during stacking and retrieval, even at full height.
What battery and energy options are available?
The series runs on a 48V battery system with capacities ranging from 500Ah to 750Ah, suitable for extended operation. It can also be configured with Li-ion battery options that support opportunity charging and require zero maintenance, offering higher uptime and lower total ownership costs for multi-shift environments.
