Durability
A truck that cannot be used costs money. On one hand the truck must always be
available when needed in order for business to continue as usual and remain ef-
ficient, while on the other hand service costs often represent a significant share of
total truck costs during the truck's life cycle. To minimise the risk of an inoperative
truck and resulting costly service outlays, the trucks in the LWE series have the
following features:
Increased uptime
Feature
On the LWE series trucks, a number of common
problem sources that result in downtime have been
eliminated thanks to improved truck design.
● All bushings are made from composite materials
with Teflon coating to extend the service life and
eliminate the need for lubrication.
● AC motor that does not move with the drive
wheel – carbon-brushes that wear out and cables
that twist have been eliminated.
● The cable connecting the tiller arm to the truck is a spiral shaped cable not af-
fected by bending.
● To prevent entry of dirt, all terminals are insu-
lated.
● No mechanical switches are used; all switches
have a non-contact design in an effort to reduce
the number of wear surfaces.
● Communication between the steering controls
and motor controller relies on a CAN bus. This
type of communication is common in the automotive sector and requires less use
of cables in the exposed area between the tiller arm and motor controller.
● The lower part of the chassis has been reinforced to lessen the risk of impact
damage on the truck.
● All hydraulic couplings are of quick connection type to almost completely
eliminate the possibility of leaks.
