KALMAR DCD 370-12CS SIT-DOWN FORKLIFT

The Kalmar DCD 370-12CS is a heavy-duty forklift designed for demanding industrial applications, featuring a robust load capacity of 81,571 lbs (approximately 37 metric tons) at a load center of 47.3 inches. The forklift’s substantial operating weight is approximately 104,720 lbs, indicative of its reinforced build to support extreme lifting tasks. Its overall width measures 13.7 feet, with a wheelbase of 16.5 feet, providing stable maneuverability despite its size. The DCD 370-12CS runs on pneumatic tires, consisting of two front and two rear wheels, optimized for durability and traction in both indoor and outdoor environments. This model is typically powered by a turbocharged straight-six diesel engine, such as the Volvo TWD 1240VE variant, which delivers reliable torque and power output suitable for port and heavy industrial uses. The mast system supports duplex or duplex freelift configurations, often integrated with sideshift and fork positioning carriage options to enhance load handling precision and operational flexibility. The forklift’s design prioritizes lifting height capabilities and performance under heavy loads, making it ideal for container handling and other high-capacity lifting requirements. Its construction features a hydrodynamic powershift torque converter drive system, facilitating smooth acceleration and controlled lowering speeds to improve safety and efficiency during operation. The DCD 370-12CS combines solid engineering with comprehensive functionality, addressing the needs of users requiring a powerful counterbalance forklift for high-capacity load handling in challenging work environments.
