Efficient and proven technology

Battery lifetime_image

Ensure long battery lifetime

Konecranes has a state-of-the-art solution where all components are connected in a shared system where heating and/or cooling keep the battery temperature always at a certain range (+25°C). ​This means temperature won’t reduce/affect the battery charge status.

It’s the Thermal Management System (TMS) and the Battery Monitoring System (BMS), necessary to protect and insulate the battery and to monitor and keep all parameters (temperatures, voltages, currents) in specified ranges, to avoid the over- or undercharge of the battery (or its cells).

Ready whenever needed

Konecranes Battery Management System allows you to pre-heat or pre-cool your truck (battery and cabin) when connected to the grid/charging. 

It works with a timer. 

Determine in advance when your operations start and get the truck ready with both battery and cabin at the right temperature whenever you need it, for uncompromised performance and maximize battery lifetime.

Electric forklift in automotive operations

In the heart of Sweden's automotive industry, a leading company tested Konecranes' biggest electric forklift, the E-VER 25-1200C, to explore what truly moves their world: smooth and efficient operations.

The forklift's quiet, engine-free design impressed operators, with less vibrations and noise in the cabin, making it easier and more comfortable to drive.

The forklift also lifts faster, helping operators complete other tasks more efficiently.

Zero tailpipe emissions mean the equipment produces no CO₂ exhaust during operation. However, emissions may still exist in other parts of equipment's lifecycle for example manufacturing, logistics and how the energy powering the equipment – electricity – is generated. For example, if the electricity used to power the equipment is produced using fossil fuels, upstream emissions can be significant.
