15 Ton Diesel Forklift for Heavy Industrial Material Handling
Our CPCD150 diesel forklift is rated for 15,000 kg at a 600 mm load center and uses a larger heavy-duty chassis than the adjacent 13.5 and 14 ton classes. The published configuration includes 1,800 mm forks, 4,700 mm minimum turning radius and 18,000 kg operating weight for demanding industrial load handling.
When the 15 Ton Class Becomes the Better Fit
Moving from 14 to 15 tons is not only a 1,000 kg nameplate change. The CPCD150 published data also shows a longer wheelbase, heavier operating weight, longer forks and larger turning radius.
Buyers should therefore select the 15 ton class when the real load profile justifies the larger platform, not simply to create unused nominal capacity.

Longer 1,800 mm Forks Make Load Geometry More Important
CPCD150 uses a published fork size of 1,800 × 200 × 90 mm. This provides a different load-handling envelope from the adjacent smaller classes and makes the relationship between load depth and center of gravity especially important.
The 15,000 kg rating is specified at a 600 mm load center. A long industrial load can move its center of gravity farther forward even when total weight remains below 15 tons.
- Maximum load weight
- Load length, width and height
- Actual center of gravity
- Fork entry direction
- Required fork length and spacing
- Attachment weight and depth
15 Tons Does Not Mean Every 15 Ton Load
Two loads with the same gross weight can create very different load moments when their centers of gravity are different.
Send a drawing for machinery, long bundles, steel products or irregular cargo before final model approval.
Do Not Treat 110 kW as a Universal CPCD150 Engine Output
The current technical table lists three diesel configurations. The Yuchai version is published at 110 kW, while the two Cummins options are listed at 97 kW. Engine model and emission level should therefore be confirmed as one complete configuration.
Plan the Yard Route Around the Larger CPCD150 Footprint
Published overall length with forks.
Overall truck width.
Minimum turning radius.
Published cab height.
Check these dimensions against gates, loading lanes, intersections, dock approaches and staging zones. The actual load can increase the required maneuvering envelope beyond the bare truck turning radius.
Performance Data for Heavy Yard Route Planning
Loaded / unloaded travel speed.
Loaded / unloaded lifting speed.
Published traction force.
Loaded / unloaded gradeability.
Ramp suitability still depends on ramp length, surface, load center, operating frequency and route conditions. Published gradeability should not be treated as blanket approval for every slope.
Where the 15 Ton CPCD150 Platform Fits
Heavy Manufacturing
Move machine assemblies, dies, fabricated structures and heavy industrial components.
Steel & Industrial Cargo
Handle dense or long loads after confirming fork length, load center and route space.
Freight & Heavy Yards
Move large packaged cargo where the paved route and turning space support the CPCD150 chassis.
Confirm One Complete CPCD150 Build Before Purchase
The engine model, output, emission specification, mast, forks, attachment, transmission and cab equipment should belong to the same approved configuration. Do not combine the highest value or preferred feature from separate optional versions into one assumed standard truck.

CPCD150 15 Ton Diesel Forklift Buying Questions
The CPCD150 is rated for 15,000 kg at a 600 mm load center. Loads with a longer center of gravity require a separate load-moment check.
The current technical table lists 1,800 × 200 × 90 mm forks. Confirm required fork length, spacing and load center for the actual cargo.
Current published data lists Yuchai YC6J150-T301, Dongfeng Cummins 6BT5.9-C130 and Dongfeng Cummins QSB4.5-C130. The published outputs are not identical, so confirm the exact engine in the quotation.
The published minimum turning radius is 4,700 mm. Actual route clearance must also include forks, load dimensions and surrounding obstacles.
Compare the maximum routine load, load center, attachment, required fork height and site geometry. Choose the capacity class that satisfies the approved operating condition rather than tonnage alone.
Send load weight and dimensions, center of gravity, required fork and mast data, attachment requirement, yard route, surface and ramp conditions, engine or emission preference, quantity and destination.
