XCMG XCF4612K 46-Tonne Heavy Duty Forklift

Overview

The XCMG XCF4612K is the highest-payload model of XCMG’s K-series counterbalanced heavy forklifts: 46,000 kg rated load at a 1,200 mm load centre with a 4 m lift height. XCMG publishes the model on two official pages — as a heavy-duty counterbalanced forklift and as a K-series railway reach stacker — reflecting its dual role: general heavy lifting in ports, yards and warehouses, and dedicated 20 ft dry-bulk/open-top railway container handling in electrified rail yards, where a dedicated spreader clears the overhead contact-wire safety distance and an F-TR lock recognition with automatic positioning system keeps heavy lifts precise.

Key Features

• Precise load control: industry-leading electronic control with an electronic inching function for accurate stacking.
• Lower fuel burn: the machine detects its working state, identifies dynamic power demand and actively adjusts engine speed to the optimal operating zone, cutting system fuel consumption by around 10%; the reach-stacker configuration pairs a Cummins engine with a Dana transmission and load-sensing hydraulics.
• Operator comfort: fully enclosed cab, suspension damping seat, intelligent temperature-controlled high-power air conditioning and single-lever control to reduce fatigue.
• Stability under heavy load: robust structure for heavy-duty loading, combining precise weight-matching technology with electronically controlled active protection.
• High-temperature readiness: enlarged, vibration-isolated radiator keeps coolant around 98 °C during intensive 45 °C operation.
• Railway-specific capability (reach-stacker configuration): custom spreader maintains safe clearance under 25 kV overhead contact wires; F-TR lock recognition and automatic positioning support 20 ft dry-bulk and open-top wagon loading; usable for intermodal hubs and heavy-goods handling — one machine, multiple uses.

Applications

Ports, material yards, warehouses and rail/road transfer stations as a 46-tonne counterbalanced forklift; electrified railway yards and freight terminals for lifting, stacking and transferring railway containers under overhead contact wires.

Data Source

XCMG official China product pages: XCF4612K heavy forklift and XCF4612K K-series reach stacker, both fetched on 2026-10-07. The two pages publish overlapping but differently-scoped data for the same model; both tables are reproduced side by side and conflicting rows (operating weight, speed and gradeability figures) are noted rather than merged. XCMG also lists the separate XCF3512K, XCF2512K, XCF1612K and other K-series models.

Specifications and configurations may vary depending on options, batch and regional regulations. XCMG reserves the right to make changes without prior notice; final figures must be confirmed after order placement.
