LPG forklift truck
2.2 - 3.5 t, max. 8 455 mm | RX 70 series
STILL
With the new RX 70 hybrid diesel forklift truck, STILL GmbH of Hamburg is consistently following the path to lower energy consumption and CO2 emissions. The design of the new truck has been based on the highly successful RX 70 diesel truck and is the first true hybrid forklift truck to make it into series production.
The new RX 70 has two energy storage systems. One is quite simply the diesel storage tank, but the other system is made up of high power double layer capacitors called 'Super Caps'. These Super Caps are located at the rear of the truck and charged with the energy released whilst braking. When accelerating, the energy stored in Super Caps is used to provide additional power, thus the energy gained is used to power the drive.
In addition to this, the diesel engine generates current for the electric drive motor through a three-phase generator. The power electronics are used to link all systems and also control the charging and discharging of the auxiliary energy store.
