EV Forklift

Electric forklifts are electric handling equipment with lithium - ion batteries as the core power source, and they are mainstream electrified upgrade products in the warehousing and logistics field. Compared with traditional lead - acid battery forklifts or internal combustion forklifts, their most prominent feature is the adoption of lithium - ion batteries with high energy density (such as lithium iron phosphate, ternary lithium, etc.). They realize driving, lifting and operation functions through electric energy to drive motors, and they have the advantages of environmental protection, high efficiency and economy. They are widely used in modern warehousing, manufacturing industry and special scenarios.

The core advantages are concentrated in three aspects:

First, they are green and clean. They have zero exhaust emissions during operation, and the noise is lower than 70 decibels (traditional internal combustion forklifts are about 90 decibels). They are especially suitable for indoor warehouses, cold storage, food and pharmaceutical industries and other scenarios that are sensitive to air quality and noise.

Second, they are efficient and low - consumption. The energy density of lithium - ion batteries is 2 - 3 times that of lead - acid batteries, so they have a longer battery life. They support fast charging (80% charge in 1 - 2 hours) and can be charged at any time without interrupting the operation. In addition, the motor has a fast response and strong power, and the lifting speed and driving efficiency are better than those of lead - acid models.

Third, they are easy to maintain. Their cycle life can reach 2000 - 4000 times, and they have no memory effect. There is no need for regular water adding or balanced charging. Only simple daily inspections are required, and the maintenance cost is reduced by more than 60%.

Typical applications include pallet handling in e - commerce warehouses, operation in low - temperature environments of cold chain logistics, and material transfer in manufacturing production lines. According to the vehicle type, they can be divided into counterbalanced type (for general handling), reach type (for high - level shelf stacking), narrow - aisle type (with aisles only 1.6 - 2 meters) and so on, which are suitable for multiple scenario needs. With the progress of battery technology (such as the improvement of the safety of lithium iron phosphate), lithium - ion forklifts are becoming the core equipment for global logistics electrification, helping enterprises reduce costs, improve efficiency and achieve green transformation.
