Toyota Material Handling Europe has introduced its new Toyota Traigo48 range of electric counterbalanced forklifts, offering superior performance, unmatched design, and a comprehensive set of features that set a new standard for material handling. With 3 and 4-wheel models available in various sizes, the Traigo48 range is tailored to meet the needs of customers requiring versatility and productivity in applications such as loading, unloading, stacking, and horizontal transport.
The Traigo48 range features load capacities from 1.5 to 2.0 tonnes, with lift heights up to 7.5 metres and a maximum speed of up to 20 km/h, offering customers the flexibility they need to tackle a wide variety of tasks in both indoor and outdoor environments.
Choice of energy by design, to fit all kind of operations
Toyota’s Traigo48 range is available with flexible battery options to fit various operational requirements: conventional lead-acid (LAB) batteries and lithium-ion (LIB) batteries. The flexibility to choose between these options allows customers to select the best fit based on their operational needs, ensuring optimal performance and cost efficiency.
For those who prioritise ergonomics and fast charging, Toyota Material Handling launched the brand-new Traigo_i model. The electric counterbalanced Traigo_i stands out with its integrated lithium-ion battery. This design not only offers powerful performance but also features a space-saving configuration for operators, which provides them with extra legroom for more comfort. The exterior design of the Toyota Traigo_i trucks presents a unique but unmistakably Toyota appearance. Inspired by the iconic shape of the katana, the dynamic frame line under the operator’s seat and the accentuated design of the cabin add to the pristine look.
The Traigo_i, specifically designed with lithium-ion batteries, offers an easy access to the charging port integrated into the counterweight allowing for quicker and more efficient opportunity charging. On the standard Traigo48 models equipped with lead-acid battery, the side chassis panel door allows for quick and efficient battery exchange.
Performance meets innovation
The new Toyota Traigo48 forklifts range boasts high levels of productivity. SyncoDrive from Toyota offers an important reduction in energy consumption compared to the previous model, ensuring optimal efficiency and enhanced responsiveness. The combination of an IPM (Interior Permanent Magnet) synchronous motor for traction, and advanced controllers for swift load handling operations delivers smooth, reliable performance across tasks like stacking, loading, unloading, and horizontal transport.
Further enhancing their efficiency, the 48-volt electric trucks can also be equipped with an optional high-performance motor for lifting, offering an additional boost to productivity. This combination of advanced technology and performance ensures that Toyota’s new Traigo48 range will meet the needs of demanding applications, while also reducing energy usage. Thanks to these improvements, the new Traigo48 can achieve up to 18% reduction in energy consumption compared to the previous model.
Designed for driver comfort and productivity
The Toyota Traigo_i model takes the operator experience to the next level, focusing on ergonomics and comfort. With an emphasis on providing a spacious workspace and excellent legroom, the Traigo_i creates an environment that promotes productivity and comfort for drivers, even during long shifts. Due to its unique design, centered around the lithium-ion battery.
Additionally, as part of the new overall design, the operator compartment on both designed for lithium-ion and standard models has been enhanced with features like a smaller steering wheel, an adjustable steering column and a new armrest with choice of levers. There is also an integrated colour touchscreen display providing an easy man-machine interface. Forward visibility is further enhanced by the updated overhead guard and the new lower dashboard design. The full-floating driver compartment, mounted on four suspended dampers, drastically reduces vibrations, ensuring a smooth, low-noise operation that enhances operator comfort and lessens fatigue.
An optional wide visibility glass roof further enhances visibility, allowing operators to have a clearer upward view on the forks and loads, adding to the overall safety. With all these improvements, driving becomes more intuitive and comfortable, greatly enhancing driver ergonomics and efficiency. The new Traigo48 models were premiered at this year’s LogiMAT tradefair.
