Companies are under pressure to move more goods within tighter storage layouts while maintaining safety and efficiency. The VIWINT CQD-E Series Ride-on Reach Truck is designed precisely for this challenge—delivering powerful performance, precise control, and outstanding maneuverability in narrow aisles.

Designed for High-Efficiency Warehouse Operations

The CQD-E series reach truck is engineered to maximize productivity in modern distribution centers, manufacturing warehouses, and logistics hubs. With advanced electric technology and an ergonomic ride-on design, operators can handle demanding tasks with greater speed and comfort.

Key performance advantages include:

• High lifting efficiency for medium to high-level racking

• Stable operation during continuous warehouse shifts

• Reduced operator fatigue thanks to intelligent control systems

This makes the CQD-E an ideal solution for high-density storage systems and narrow aisle warehouses.

Precision Control with Advanced Electric Technology

One of the standout features of the CQD-E reach forklift is its imported electronic control system, such as the CURTIS controller, which provides reliable performance and multiple automatic protection functions.

The forklift is also equipped with:

• EPS (Electric Power Steering) for smoother and more precise handling

• Up to 20% lower energy consumption compared with traditional steering systems

• Improved driving comfort and reduced operator fatigue

Together, these features help warehouses improve efficiency while lowering operational costs.

Built for Narrow Aisle Warehouses

Space optimization is a critical factor in modern logistics. The CQD-E series is designed with a forward-moving mast structure, allowing the forklift to operate efficiently even in tight aisles.

Advantages include:

• Small turning radius for improved maneuverability

• Ability to work smoothly in narrow warehouse aisles

• Reduced interference with rack bottom structures

This design significantly increases warehouse storage density and operational flexibility.

Multiple Safety Protection Systems

Safety is a core part of the CQD-E design philosophy. The truck integrates several intelligent protection mechanisms to protect both operators and cargo.

1. Fork Lowering Cushion System
When the forks descend to approximately 10 cm above the ground, the lowering speed automatically slows down. This prevents cargo damage caused by sudden impact.

2. Mast Buffer System
When the forks reach maximum lifting height, the mast buffering system reduces vibration, improving operator comfort and equipment stability.

3. Pedal Safety Power-off Switch
A foot-activated safety switch ensures the vehicle can only operate when the operator is properly positioned, enhancing overall driving safety.

Long-Lasting Battery Performance

The CQD-E series is powered by a 48V high-capacity lead-acid battery, providing:

• Long operating hours per charge

• Stable power output

• Reliable performance for demanding warehouse operations

This ensures the reach truck can handle full working shifts in busy logistics environments.

Key Specifications Overview

The CQD-E series includes multiple models with different load capacities and lifting heights to match various warehouse needs.

Typical Models:

• CQDE15-45S – 1.5 Ton Capacity

• CQDE20-45S – 2.0 Ton Capacity

• CQDE25-80S – 2.5 Ton Capacity

Main Performance Highlights:

• Rated load: 1500–2500 kg

• Lift height: Up to 8000 mm

• Turning radius: 1800–1900 mm

• Travel speed (loaded/unloaded): 6.8 / 7.8 km/h

• AC drive motor: 6.5 kW

• AC lift motor: 7.5–8.6 kW

• Battery: 48V / 300–400Ah

These specifications make the CQD-E reach truck suitable for medium and high-level pallet stacking operations.

Ideal Applications

The VIWINT CQD-E ride-on reach truck is widely used in:

• E-commerce fulfillment centers
