KALMAR DCE80-45 E5 SIT-DOWN FORKLIFT

Technical Description

The Kalmar DCE80-45 E5 is a heavy-duty diesel forklift engineered for demanding industrial applications, particularly empty container handling operations. This robust machine features a load capacity of 8,000 kilograms (17,637 lbs) with a maximum lift height of 15.2 meters, enabling efficient handling of large and bulky loads in high-volume environments. Powered by a Volvo TAD720VE diesel engine delivering 174 kilowatts, the forklift achieves a maximum travel speed of 27 kilometers per hour, optimizing productivity in fast-paced operations. The machine's substantial overall width of 4 meters (13.2 feet) and 15-foot wheelbase provide a stable platform for secure load handling, with a 6-meter turning radius suitable for open yard operations. Weighing approximately 35.7 metric tons (74,957.2 lbs), the forklift is supported by a four-wheel pneumatic tire configuration—two front and two rear wheels—ensuring reliable traction and durability across various terrain conditions. The load center of gravity is positioned at 1,220 millimeters, a critical specification for maintaining operational safety and load balance. Construction commenced in 2012, establishing this model as a proven workhorse in container terminals, logistics hubs, and heavy industrial facilities worldwide. The DCE80-45 E5 combines advanced hydraulic systems with intelligent transmission options, including integrated electronic controls for precision operation. Its cabin features a 1,500-millimeter internal height with comprehensive instrumentation for operator comfort and safety. The machine's durability is enhanced by an 380-liter diesel tank capacity and extended service intervals of 500 operating hours, minimizing downtime and reducing maintenance costs.
