Kalmar DCE80-6

The DCE80-6 is a diesel forklift from the Kalmar Diesel forklifts series. It has a width of 2,000 mm, a curb weight of 10,800 kg and is equipped with pneumatic tires. The machine features four wheels, two at the front and two at the rear, and a Duplex mast that can lift loads up to 8,000 kg to a height of 4,000 mm. The load centre is 609.6 mm, which contributes to stability when handling heavy loads.

A lifting capacity of 8,000 kg enables the forklift to raise heavy pallets and containers, while the 4,000 mm lift height provides sufficient clearance for stacking in higher racks. The curb weight of 10,800 kg affects ground pressure and transportability: a higher weight gives better traction but also increases energy consumption during travel. Pneumatic tires improve ride comfort and reduce vibrations on uneven surfaces. The Duplex mast allows compact operation in narrow aisles because it folds into two sections.

In the series the DCE80-6 ranks 15th out of 18 models for curb weight with a value of 10,800 kg. The next smaller model DCE 70‑6 has a curb weight of 9,700 kg, while the next larger model DCE90‑6L weighs 11,300 kg. Its weight is practically equal to the DCE 80‑6HE and falls within the series range of 8,400 to 50,000 kg.
