Electric productivity gains

Doosan’s BR14JW 9-Series reach trucks offer faster operating speeds and heavyweight-lifting muscle for high productivity and better efficiency.

Ryan Lenihan, commercial director at Doosan Industrial Vehicle UK, said: “The scale and scope of Doosan as a large global engineering business enables us to make significant, on-going investment into our warehouse product range – bringing design enhancements, new battery and charging technology upgrades, advanced safety features, and a whole range of performance boosting innovations.”

Capacities between 1,400-2,500kg

The 9-Series electric reach trucks are available in six moving-mast models with capacities between 1,400 to 2,500kg, and in three chassis types: heavy, narrow or standard.

The BR20JW-9 and BR25JW-9 heavy models have the capacity to carry loads up to 2t and 2.5t respectively, and the standard BR14JW-9 and BR16JW-9 reach trucks offer all-round value and performance for standard applications.

Operational performance has received a boost in Doosan’s 9-Series, with design and engineering improvements delivering 15% faster travel speeds, 20% faster lifting speeds and 10% faster lowering speeds – helping to get the job done more quickly and efficiently.

All models are equipped with Doosan’s Guardian Stability System and Smart Sensor control, reducing mast oscillation by 40%, for greater stability and safer load handling when operating at heights of up to 13m.

Making the most of the narrowest aisle widths, Doosan’s new ultra-compact BR14J-9 and BR16J-9 models are 12% narrower than the previous models, which together with a shorter chassis, offers a much tighter turning radius – allowing the operator to manoeuvre with confidence in aisles under 3m wide.

Maximum manoeuvrability is available to the driver with a choice between 180-degree or 360-degree steering.
