MLift FB18TU Electric Forklift 1.8t

3-Wheel Electric Forklift Built for Productive Indoor Handling

The MLIFT FB18TU steps up to a 1,800 kg lifting capacity while retaining the same compact three-wheel footprint and dual AC motor system as the rest of the FB16-20TU series. With a lithium-ion battery as standard, a 1,620 mm turning radius, and dual 5.5 kW front-drive motors, the FB18TU is designed for operations that need a little more lifting muscle without sacrificing the manoeuvrability required in busy indoor environments. Quiet, clean, and built for multi-shift use, it’s a practical upgrade for any facility moving on from lead-acid or LPG.

  • Warehousing, storage facilities, and goods-in/dispatch operations
  • Light manufacturing and assembly line support

Features & Benefits

Dual AC Front-Drive Motors

Twin 5.5 kW AC drive motors deliver smooth, responsive acceleration and consistent performance across full shifts without power fade.

Lithium-Ion Battery

The 76.8V / 150Ah lithium battery supports opportunity charging, has no memory effect, and eliminates the time and cost of battery swaps.

Compact 3-Wheel Manoeuvrability

A turning radius of just 1,620 mm and a slim 1,084 mm overall width works efficiently in narrow aisles and confined spaces.

Ergonomic Operator Environment

Adjustable suspension seat, ergonomic controls, and an overhead guard height ensure comfort and safety for operators across extended shifts.

Low Noise, Zero Emissions

Well suited to food-grade, pharmaceutical, and other indoor environments where air quality and noise levels matter.

Simple Maintenance

The accessible AC drive system and motor technology keep the frequency and cost of servicing low over the machine’s working life.
