Multi-Level Power Changers

MTC PCHE-2 Series

The MTC Model PCHE2 Multi-Level Power Changer is designed for high-capacity applications requiring 20 to 250 battery changes per day. The simultaneous travel and lift functions allow for fast, efficient battery changes averaging less than two minutes each. The PCHE2 marries the power of a hydraulic lift with the precision of an electric drive. The hydraulic system supplies power for both the battery lift system and the central carriage battery positioning system, while the magnetic extraction provides secure, consistent battery gripping. The PCHE2’s AC-controlled gear reduction drive system incorporates a computerized AB PowerFlex inverter for controlling braking, drive speeds, and torque settings with a Sew-Eurodrive gearmotor. The PCHE2 comes with advanced safety features, including an emergency valve to lower the carriage, a safety strobe, a proximity switch, a limit switch, and railing around the operator’s platform to prevent the operator from inadvertently walking off the platform. Optional arm extension allows the PCHE2 to reach past any outriggers and change the battery on any fork truck available on the market today.

Multi-Level Power Changers

MTC PCE Series​

The MTC Model PCE battery changer is designed to offer true multifunctional control for changing and handling fork truck batteries. The PCE’s integrated power systems allow the operator to simultaneously travel, raise the carriage, and manipulate the pivot arm, for optimum performance. The PCE’s newly designed control panel makes operating the unit simple. The AC-controlled gear reduction drive system incorporates a computerized SEW Eurodrive inverter motor for controlling braking, drive speeds, and torque settings, while the computer-controlled four-point rack and pinion lift system uses two additional Eurodrive Motors running in parallel to raise and lower the carriage. Designed with safety in mind, the PCE features a unique Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) battery safety lock system, which uses four polarized retro-reflective photo-eyes to monitor the position of the battery on the carriage. Optional equipment includes the SIC laser used for autonomous navigation and an anti-collision sensor.
