The robust and versatile design of Combilift’s multi-directional range integrates the benefits of a counterbalanced forklift, side loader, and very narrow aisle (VNA) truck into a single vehicle, providing a comprehensive solution with electric, diesel, or LPG engines. The Combi-CBE is equipped with internationally patented electric traction technology, allowing for independent control of each front and rear drive wheel and ensuring 100% traction control. This feature eliminates the need for a differential lock when operating on wet or slippery surfaces. As the vehicle maneuvers, the speed and rotational direction of the wheels are managed independently, providing operators with precise acceleration and deceleration control. This capability significantly minimizes long load momentum twisting during lateral movement. Additionally, each electric drive includes parking and regenerative dynamic braking for enhanced power efficiency, while the AC drive system eliminates the need for mechanical brushes, reducing maintenance requirements.
