Dual independent AC drive motors with separate drive controllers provide superior maneuverability while turning. AC drive and German gearbox technology ensure accurate control and travel speed.
Intelligent. Productive. Convenient.
Operator Controls & Comfort:
- Multi-functional handle controls key vehicle functions: forward/backward travel speed, side shifting, and proportional lifting and lowering.
- One-button tilt control system ensures safety by limiting the tilt of cargo when forks are lifted high.
- Ergonomic compact steering wheel with knob provides comfortable and effortless operation.
- Adjustable backrest and hip pad contour the body to ensure operator comfort throughout the entire work shift.
- Armrest can be adjusted to maximize the comfort of operators of different heights.
- The floor suspension system adapts to the weight of the operator and provides impact and vibration protection.
Technology & Features:
- A large LED screen conveniently displays lifting weight, lifting height, speed, power, steering, fault code, alarm, and more.
- Large capacity battery allows for multiple shift operation. Side extraction reduces maintenance time.
- A low step height and a wide entry are ideal for operators who are frequently getting on and off the forklift.
- Easily check condition and troubleshoot with Curtis controller and CAN-bus technology.
- ? USB connector for charging and powering of additional devices during operations.
Visibility & Safety:
Angled columns, overhead guard design, and open view mast provide the operator with a clean line of sight to the load and their surroundings for increased efficiency and improved safety.
Reliability and Safety
- Dual-brake/presence pedal design protects the operator and the forklift. If both pedals are not depressed, the forklift will not travel in any direction.
- Equipped with LED headlights, safety blue light, and a buzzer for safe driving.
- Emergency power button cuts off the power in emergency situations to protect the operator and the cargo.
Long Lasting and Safe Lithium Power
NOBLELIFT uses Lithium-Iron Phosphate batteries, recognized as the longest lasting and safest lithium battery available. These batteries are equipped with a Battery Management System (BMS), thermal management system, and an automotive-grade DC high-voltage control system. The BMS manages charging and discharging data to ensure safety throughout the battery's life cycle.
CBT33 Stand-Up Forklifts have a 5-year or 10,000-hour warranty on the lithium battery cells.
Advantages of Lithium Power
The lithium battery is fast-charging and maintenance-free, fully charged in 2.5 hours. It can be opportunity charged during user breaks and shift changes, allowing the truck to run continuously through multi-shift operations without the need for battery changes.
| Feature | Lead-Acid Battery | Lithium Battery |
|---|---|---|
| ? Productivity / Memory Effect | Lower fleet availability - Work is interrupted because the battery needs to be fully charged before next use. | 100% Fleet availability - Opportunity charging allows the battery to be charged in between use. |
| ⏳ Service Life | Periodic battery replacement required. | Batteries last 3 times longer and do not need to be replaced. |
| ⚙️ Ongoing Maintenance | Outsourced or in-house maintenance personnel required. | No maintenance cost. |
| ⚡ Charge Duration | 8-10 Hours - 2 or more batteries per lift truck. | 2.5 Hours - 1 Battery per lift truck. |
| ? Battery Room | Requires an expensive battery room with ventilation. | No battery room needed. |
| ☣️ Dangerous Substances | Releases hydrogen while charging - Can result in explosion. Acid burns can happen during maintenance. | No dangerous substances. |
| ? Power Savings | Power loss occurs. | No power loss - Reduces energy consumption by 35%. |
