Konecranes SMV 52 GC3S / GC4S / GC5S – High‑Capacity Forklifts for Heavy Industrial & Port Handling

The Konecranes SMV 52 GC3S / GC4S / GC5S series represents a family of high‑capacity forklifts engineered for the most demanding industrial, port, and logistics environments. Built on Konecranes’ proven heavy‑duty platform, these models deliver exceptional lifting power, long‑term durability, and the precision required for continuous high‑intensity operations.

With a 52‑tonne maximum lifting capacity (model‑dependent) and reinforced mast configurations, the GC3S/4S/5S range is designed for handling steel, breakbulk, timber, containers, and oversized industrial materials. Their robust chassis, high‑strength mast assemblies, and advanced hydraulic systems ensure safe, stable lifting even at extended load centres.

High‑Performance Diesel Power

Each model in the SMV 52 GC series is powered by a high‑output diesel engine engineered for heavy‑duty applications. With strong torque delivery and efficient fuel consumption, these forklifts provide the power needed for lifting, travelling, and manoeuvring extremely heavy loads in demanding environments.

The drivetrain and transmission are designed for smooth, predictable operation, enabling operators to position loads accurately while maintaining full control under pressure.

Engineered for Extreme Lifting & Stability

The SMV 52 GC3S / GC4S / GC5S models are built to excel in tough industrial conditions, offering:

• Up to 52‑tonne lifting capacity depending on configuration
• Reinforced mast and carriage systems for maximum rigidity
