About the 3T Lithium Counterbalance Forklift
The Hangcha 3T lithium counterbalance forklift is a heavy-duty, zero-emission warehouse machine designed for operations that demand high throughput across multiple shifts without the overhead of conventional lead-acid battery management. At 3,000 kg capacity, it handles the upper end of standard pallet work — from stacking heavy building materials and bagged goods to moving industrial components and bulk consumer products — all without the fumes or noise of an LPG or diesel unit. The 80V lithium-ion battery system supports opportunity charging during breaks, eliminating dedicated battery-change rooms and reducing overall fleet complexity.
Where the 3T lithium earns its place over smaller electric models is in operations that regularly push load weights toward the top of the 2.5T bracket, or where lift heights up to 7.0 metres demand a machine with the stability and power reserves to perform consistently through long shifts. It is equally at home in temperature-controlled environments such as cold stores and food manufacturing facilities, where internal combustion machines are restricted and battery performance in lower temperatures remains a key operational consideration. For Geelong businesses running intensive logistics, manufacturing, or distribution work indoors, this machine offers a practical step up in capacity without moving to a diesel platform.
Key Features
- 80V lithium-ion power system — supports opportunity charging during short breaks, maintains consistent voltage output throughout the discharge cycle, and requires no watering, equalising, or dedicated battery change infrastructure
- Duplex wide-view mast — the open-frame design maximises forward sightlines at height, improving operator confidence when stacking to 7.0 m in racking applications
- Pneumatic tyres — suited to warehouses with uneven concrete or hardstand areas, providing better load stability and ride quality compared to cushion-tyre machines on rougher surfaces
- 18 km/h laden travel speed — maintains productive cycle times across large warehouse floors or between loading docks and storage areas without sacrificing control under load
