Container lift trucks designed with the greatest care

Konecranes have long been a trusted presence at leading container ports and terminals for the quality of their range of container lift trucks.

Our customers have extremely rigorous requirements and we make it a point of honour to fulfil them year after year through the quality of the equipment offered and Aprolis' speedy after-sales support service.

Empty container lift trucks from 8 to 10 tonnes

Empty containers have to be put back into the customer’s operational process as efficiently as possible.

Our empty container lift trucks guarantee a very high operating speed because of their lift/lower speeds, fast travel and the hydraulic load detection system.

The trucks in our range have cabs that are central or raised at the rear and they offer outstanding stability.

Ergonomic and productive

All over the world, Konecranes empty container lift trucks play a key role in the operations of many container ports and intermodal terminals

The empty container lift trucks are designed for productivity and for the comfort of the truck operators.

Able to stack up to 8 containers.

The trucks offer outstanding visibility thanks to their extremely wide mast.

The limited number of hoses and cables reduces machine downtime and guarantees maximum availability.

Highly rigid mast and tilt cylinders for better stability and improved safety.

Full control of all machine parts and functions on a 7 in. touchscreen. Settings adjustment.

CanBus technology increases the reliability of the engine and transmission.

CanBus also offers precise control of the hydraulic system via the fingertip controls using mini-levers or joysticks.

Every detail has been thought out carefully for comfort and safety.

Controls, screens, ventilation and the seat have all been designed to boost operator productivity.

The cab also offers outstanding visibility in every direction.

The empty container lift truck range offers a wide selection of engines conforming to the European emissions standards.

Engines certified for low emissions, providing high torque at low rpm, offering low fuel consumption and a low noise level.

This system detects the weight of the load and adjusts the lifting power to the weight of the load.

The lift truck uses maximum power only when necessary, making for better fuel economy, but also reducing emissions and the noise level.

Side lifting of 6 - 12 m containers, lifting of 13 - 16 m containers in the same position as 12 m containers using only the twist-locks.

Large side offset, 2% spreader mechanical attitude correction system.

As an option, you can specify a 6% hydraulic attitude correction system.

Single lift mode: up to 8 containers high.
Double lift mode: up to 2 containers on top of 6.

Maximum braking power under all circumstances thanks to brakes with continuous oil cooling.

Accessories for empty container handling

Forklift trucks for full containers from 33 to 45 tonnes

The handling of full containers is based on the right balance between efficiency and precision.

Our full containers forklift trucks guarantee a high operating speed (lifting speed, lowering speed, travel speed).

In addition, the ratio between lifting capacity and size/length of our trucks is unrivalled. Although relatively compact, these heavy "Toploaders" are extremely stable.
