Mitsubishi RBF14-16-20CA sit down reach trucks

The RBF14-16-20CA series Mitsubishi sit down reach trucks are available from MLA Holdings. The trucks come in three models, each powered by a 48 V traction battery. The 1.4-, 1.6- and 2.0-tonne models all use AC motor technology for greater power efficiency and lift heights of up to 10 m.

Three important features are the control system, smooth operation and safety.

A more optimised operator experience is provided by the SICOS-AC control system that integrates the hydraulics, travelling and steering functions. Also integrated is a self-diagnostic function that constantly monitors for malfunctions. Any faults discovered are communicated via diagnostic codes, making it easy to identify the problem and rectify it.

AC motor technology delivers a smooth, powerful drive and low maintenance costs. A regeneration function charges power back to the battery through plugging, coasting and braking to ensure longer operating hours from one charge.

Integral side shift is a standard feature, while steer by wire 360° steering means there is no need for switch back.

The Operation Interlock System deactivates travelling when the operator is not seated. A Neutral Safety Feature prevents sudden movement should the accelerator or hydraulics be accidently activated, while a sensitive lift speed control automatically slows lifting and steering when the truck is above a certain speed. Direction control, horn and emergency stop button are located ergonomically on the armrest console.
