Powerful, comfortable and durable forklifts

Now also in larger electric weight classes

Motrac is a leading player in the market of forklifts and floor cleaning machines. With an ambitious team, they provide top machines and excellent service to an ever-increasing number of industrial and logistics customers. With its two top brands - Linde and Tennant - Motrac profiles itself as market leader on the Belgian market in the industrial, logistics and cleaning segments.

One of the showpieces of the company - with branches in Antwerp, Dottenijs and Ciney - is Linde Material Handling's innovative X-series. With these, Motrac has been setting new standards in the field of sustainable electric forklifts for several years.

The best of Electric and Diesel combined

The X models offer the best of 2 worlds: the performance and robustness of IC forklifts and the flexible, emission-free operation of electric forklifts. Since the end of April, these durable powerhouses have also been available in lifting capacities from 3.5 to 5 tons, making them suitable for even the most challenging applications, such as deployment in the paper, wood, beverage, recycling and chemical industries, both indoors and outdoors. For maximum deployment, they can be configured to individual requirements. And to fully satisfy the driver, the bar is raised yet another notch in terms of ergonomics and safety.

Steven Libaers, Key Account Manager: 'Forklifts that combine the performance and IC power of the hydrostatic with the dynamics, flexibility and zero emissions of E-trucks; these only exist at Linde for now. And that makes the Linde X-Series completely unique. A new generation of synchronous reluctance motors with permanent magnets and a high-performance cooling system ensures that the electric Linde X-trucks are not inferior to thermal versions. Moreover, they are fully protected against water and dust, making them fully effective even in challenging environments.'

More space, more comfort and 100% connected

In addition, Linde has also updated its E-Series in the 3.5 to 5 tonne category. These forklifts are now even more compact and maneuverable, making them perfect for deployment in tight spaces.

'Both Linde's updated X and E series offer their operators more space and visibility than their predecessors. With both series, comfort has also been enhanced by a detachment from the cab and the use of elastomeric ring bearings, so that shocks are transmitted only minimally. In addition, they can also be equipped with the Linde Steer Control - an ergonomic joystick or mini-wheel to replace the steering wheel - and are factory 100% connected, so that they can be immediately integrated into digital processes and updates can be made remotely.'

Never have comfort and safety been as important as today. Good workers are not there for the taking. We help ensure that those same workers can work in the best and most ergonomic conditions possible," concludes Steven Libaers.
