Energy efficient
The E-VER 18-25 range represents a remarkable leap in material handling technology, offering a host of benefits that cater to operational efficiency and is a move in a more sustainable direction. One of the standout features of the E-VER is its commitment to zero tailpipe emissions. By eliminating tailpipe emissions, this fully electric forklift enables significantly reduce the carbon footprint of operations, and therefore helps companies in reaching their climate targets. The advanced high-voltage technology ensures low energy consumption, further reducing environmental impact and operational costs. Additionally, the ability to regenerate up to 15% of energy during operations makes it a more energy-efficient solution compared to traditional diesel forklifts. All vehicle statistics are available in yourKONECRANES customer portal, where you can monitor KPI:s like battery charge status, estimated autonomy, energy utilization and working cycle graph.
Powerful for E-VER
Productivity is another area where E-VER 18-25 excels. The forklift boasts faster lifting speeds, capable of lifting up to 10% faster than standard diesel models. This speed advantage, combined with its dynamic driving capabilities, allows for quicker acceleration and efficient handling of slopes. The full torque availability from the start enhances its performance, ensuring that it can meet the demands of rigorous material handling tasks with ease.
The flexibility in charging options, with fast and efficient Li-Ion battery recharging capabilities, allows the E-VER to seamlessly integrate into existing workflows without downtime, further boosting operational productivity. Furthermore, the regenerative braking system not only conserves energy but also contributes to the overall efficiency of the forklift, making E-VER a powerful and reliable tool in various operational settings.
Safe and comfortable
Safety and operator comfort are other areas that the E-VER 18-25 prioritizes. Its Optima cabin is noted for being the most spacious and quiet in the industry, equipped with ergonomic controls to reduce operator fatigue. The cabin's design provides market-leading visibility in all directions, significantly enhancing safety during operation. There is a 50% reduction in noise and vibration levels, compared to diesel alternatives, ensuring a more comfortable and less stressful working environment for operators.
Thanks to the Thermal Management System and Battery Monitoring System, you always have the correct temperature in the battery and cabin, independently from the weather conditions outside. This increases battery lifetime and also vehicle uptime, as the forklift is ready to operate at the right temperature whenever you are.
