In order to find the best truck for a particular application, it is not sufficient to consider individual aspects in isolation when selecting the right truck drive for a multi-directional truck. It is worthwhile for users to take a holistic view of the application areas, the total cost of ownership, the performance capacities and the service life. This is the only way to find the best individual solution. The development of electrically driven vehicles is rapid. Particularly in times of increasing environmental awareness of companies and the trend towards automation, it can be said that electric reusable forklifts are entering numerous new areas of application. 
At Hubtex, we continue to focus on internal combustion engine vehicles, even though their share in our product portfolio has been steadily decreasing over the last few years and will continue to decrease. The areas of application for electric vehicles are expanding, but there are still application scenarios in which thermally powered industrial trucks are still clearly superior to electric vehicles. Accordingly, we are continuing to work on increasing the energy efficiency of our vehicles. One example of this is the development of our DQ-X model, in which we have placed energy consumption, noise minimization and ergonomics at the heart of the development of a diesel-powered four-way forklift.
 Four-way sideloaders as well as 4-way trucks are synonyms for the same group of vehicles. These vehicles are suitable for transporting long goods. For this purpose, they pick up the load from the side. The turning circle is considerably reduced by the multidirectional steering system. 

HUBTEX always tries to adapt its vehicles ideally to the respective application requirements. For this reason HUBTEX offers vehicles with 48V as well as 80V voltage, especially in the load capacity classes 3.0 to 4.5 t. As a matter of principle, HUBTEX does not offer vehicles in the load capacity range from 1.5 to 3 tons with a voltage of 80V. Here are some arguments:
PER 48 V (LOAD CAPACITY CLASS 1500 KG - 4500 KG):

•      compact short design to allow small turning radii
•      and to better enable block storage
•      cheaper energy package in case of replacement procurement; also an important factor
•      in the analysis of multi-shift operations
•      lower weight of the vehicle, which leads to longer battery life
•      and less wear on the wheels leads to    
•      Almost identical energy content with the same installation space        
•      Comparison of the energy content: 48 V x 930 Ah = 44.6 kW/hour |
•      80 V x 600 Ah = 48.0 kW/hour
•      cheaper control components, cheaper spare parts
•      for drive technology and working hydraulics

PER 80 V (LOAD CAPACITY CLASS 3000 KG - 10,000 KG):

•      higher load capacities
•      more performance due to larger pumps and motors
•      slightly higher battery power
•      Reduction of power losses, as less heat is generated by higher tension

CONCLUSION:
HUBTEX offers both 48V and 80V devices. Each HUBTEX device is designed in such a way that the relationship between required power, load capacity, battery capacity and voltage is optimally matched. For example, we can offer the customer an MQ 30 (2125) with 48 V but also alternatively an MQ 30 (2130) with 80 V. The main price difference is the price of the energy package.

By using the patented, optionally available steering system, it is possible to change from longitudinal to transverse travel without stopping. This reduces the time needed to change the wheels and offers optimum manoeuvrability. A further advantage is the significantly reduced wear of the wheels. As the change of direction takes place during travel, the wheels no longer rotate on the spot, which significantly reduces wheel wear and increases the service life of the wheels. Typical areas of application for the new steering system are applications with a particularly high number of changes of direction in freely movable warehouses, when loading and unloading trucks or in block storage.

HUBTEX vehicles are always adapted to the individual requirements of the application. This also includes the individual equipment of the vehicle with additional systems. The HUBTEX sales department has a comprehensive list of attachments, load handling attachments, storage aids, camera systems, load weighing equipment, steering systems, rack guiding systems, tyres, personal security systems as well as cabins and lighting equipment.

The narrow-aisle warehouse is characterised by its small footprint. The working aisle widths are accordingly kept as small as possible. In order to achieve a high degree of space utilisation and maximum storage capacity, the standard heights of the warehouse are also utilised to the maximum. The vehicles used travel with minimum safety distances and are guided in the aisle by track guidance systems. Furthermore, picking solutions can be easily integrated with the advantage that picking can be carried out directly in front of the pallet compartment. Other storage forms are the wide aisle warehouse or RGB or high-bay warehouse.
