In Southeast Asian palm oil farms, North American peatland farms, or domestic unpaved construction sites, "getting stuck" is a common occurrence in mud operations — ordinary forklifts "stall" as soon as they enter mud pits. Towing rescue is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and getting stuck 3 times a day can result in a loss of $600. However, Hengwang Mud terrain forklift, relying on three core technologies of "large-pattern deep-groove tires + 4WD torque distribution + differential locking", directly doubles the efficiency of mud operations! This article analyzes mud pain points and shows how it solves the "getting stuck dilemma".
I. Three major "money-eating black holes" in mud operations
Operating ordinary forklifts in mud may seem simple but is actually "full of crises":
lStalling due to getting stuck: Ordinary forklifts have shallow tire patterns (pattern depth <15mm), resulting in insufficient grip in mud, getting stuck 2-3 times per hour;
lTime-consuming rescue: Towing trucks or manual mud digging are required, with a single rescue taking 1-2 hours, resulting in direct losses of $200-400;
lConstruction delay: A Southeast Asian palm oil farm once delayed the harvest season by 15 days due to getting stuck, losing over $100,000.
Mud terrain forklift is designed to solve these problems!
II. Three "anti-stuck king" designs of Mud terrain forklift
1.Large-pattern deep-groove tires: Grip increased by 100%
Hengwang Mud terrain forklift is standard-equipped with 20.5R25 deep-groove solid tires (pattern depth ≥25mm), with a tread design similar to "track patterns" — each pattern groove is 8mm deep, and the mud contact area is 3 times larger than that of ordinary tires. In tests, even when stuck in a 30cm-deep mud pit, it can "grab" the soil through the patterns to avoid sinking.
2.4WD all-terrain system: Intelligent torque distribution
Ordinary forklifts are only 2WD, so power is easily lost in mud; Hengwang Mud terrain forklift is equipped with a 4WD system, which real-time monitors the speed of four wheels through ECU — when the front wheels slip, 70% of torque is automatically distributed to the rear wheels; when one side of the wheels gets stuck, 80% of power is concentrated on the front. A Southeast Asian palm oil farmer feedback: "It used to get stuck when going uphill, but now with 4WD on, it can directly 'rush' up!"
3.Differential locking function: One side of the wheel slips? Locked in 0.3 seconds!
When one side of the wheel is suspended in mud (such as rice field ridges), the differential of ordinary forklifts will "waste" power on the idle wheel; Hengwang Mud terrain forklift is equipped with mechanical + electronic dual differential locks. When one side of the wheel slips is detected, the differential is locked within 0.3 seconds, and 100% of power is transmitted to the wheel with grip. In tests, it can still climb stably with one side of the wheel suspended on a 30° mud slope.
III. Efficiency revolution in Southeast Asian farms
Project: 5,000-acre palm garden in Kalimantan, Indonesia (70% mud area)
Pain point: Traditional forklifts got stuck 4 times a day, with a daily operation volume of only 80 tons
Solution: Deployed Hengwang HWC-40 Mud terrain forklift (4WD + differential lock + 25mm deep-groove tires)
Results:
lStuck rate decreased by 70% (only 1.2 times per day on average)
lDaily operation volume increased by 40% (reaching 112 tons)
lMonthly rescue cost saved by $12,000
Farmer's testimony: "This Mud terrain forklift is as stable as a bulldozer in the mud!"
IV. Why is Hengwang Mud terrain forklift more durable?
Durable tires: Deep-groove solid tires are cut-resistant (service life extended by 2 times under mud gravel scratches);
Strong power: Equipped with Yunnei 4102 diesel engine (150 horsepower), no "weakness" when climbing in mud;
Worry-free after-sales: 5 major spare parts warehouses in Southeast Asia/North America, with maintenance parts delivered within 48 hours.
In mud operations, getting stuck once loses $200; choosing the right equipment can double efficiency and earn it back! Hengwang Mud terrain forklift, with three core technologies of "large-pattern deep-groove tires + 4WD torque distribution + differential locking", has become the "standard for mud operations" in palm oil farms, peatland construction sites, and unpaved construction sites.
