Cat lift truck series raises the bar for reliability, efficiency

Dec. 9, 2013
Cat Lift Trucks has introduced the new 2EPC8000-2EP11000 series of electric pneumatic tire lift trucks.

Cat Lift Trucks has introduced the new 2EPC8000-2EP11000 series of electric pneumatic tire lift trucks. With capacities ranging from 8,000 to 11,000 lbs, the series features a productivity-enhancing design, premium ergonomics, and a 20% increase in efficiency over the previous generation.
Designed for use in both indoor and outdoor applications, the new series provides industry-leading performance and efficiency levels. Operations seeking to reduce their business’ overall fuel costs or reduce emissions in their application will also benefit from this electric forklift series.
Key features and benefits include:
•Improved energy performance—The 2EP8000-2EP11000 series sets a clear industry benchmark in high performance and energy efficiency by completing more pallet movement cycles per shift and allowing these lift trucks to run up to two shifts on a single battery charge in most applications. These lift trucks also offer a compact component layout within the chassis, which contributes to overall energy efficiency.
•Increased productivity—Reliable planetary drive axles provide added protection by helping prevent damage to the lift truck that can be caused by heavy loads. An optional hydraulic accumulator increases productivity by reducing the risk of damage to delicate loads during operation.
•Premium ergonomics—The lift trucks provide side battery extraction, spacious cabin with full-suspension seat, and full-compartment-length convenience tray, allowing operators to work comfortably throughout their shift.
•Several model selections—The 2EPC8000-2EP11000 series lets customers choose from seven different lift truck models, ranging from 8,000- to 11,000-lb capacities, as well as compact models with a shorter chassis length.
•Available options—These include a joystick unitized hydraulic control, electronic power steering, and non-marking solid pneumatic tires. Other options: closed cabins, keypad access, cold storage prep, and dual pneumatic tires.
