The AC-powered N-Generation lift trucks are engineered with a PM-1000 AC control system featuring advanced MOSFET and thermal technology. They have a 40% increase in travel speeds compared to earlier DC-powered models. Nine models are available with capacities from 3,000 to 6,500 lbs. Travel speed, lift speed, acceleration rate and regenerative and auto regenerative braking can be easily adjusted to match performance requirements. Torque and speed are controlled separately. The AC drive system is designed to prevent heat-induced complications and downtime.

Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks Introduces the AC Powered N-Generation

Today Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks announced the introduction of its FBC15N-FBC30LN N-Generation of alternating current (AC) powered electric forklift trucks. The AC powered N-Generation forklifts are engineered with an innovative PM-1000 AC control system featuring advanced MOSFET and thermal technology, both of which offer an advanced Integrated Presence System and deliver up to a 40 percent increase in travel speeds when compared to earlier DC-powered models. Offering nine models with capacities ranging from 3,000 to 6,500 lbs, these forklift trucks are engineered to withstand the most challenging environments.

Committed to helping its customers reach maximum efficiency levels, Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks has outfitted the N-Generation with five pre-programmed performance modes. Travel speed, lift speed, acceleration rate and regenerative and auto regenerative braking are quickly adjusted to match specific performance requirements. Torque and speed are controlled separately, allowing for optimum driving performance, such as improved speed control, especially on uneven surfaces. In addition, the AC drive system is designed to prevent heat-induced complications and downtime.

Mitsubishi forklift trucks are known for providing outstanding value and long-term reliability and this new forklift series, featuring interchangeable components and intelligent diagnostic software is no different. With 500-hour service intervals, the time between service periods can double, reducing costly downtime and planned maintenance while increasing profitability.
