With the rapid popularization of new energy logistics equipment in recent years, lithium forklifts have become the preferred handling equipment for more and more warehouse, manufacturing and port operation scenarios. Many purchasers may ignore some core details during the selection process, which may lead to mismatch between the equipment performance and actual operation demands in subsequent use. To help you make a more rational purchase decision, we sort out 10 key questions that you need to confirm clearly about a lithium forklift before finalizing the cooperation.

First, you need to confirm the actual usable working duration under full load condition with one full charge, to judge whether it can meet the operation demands of your daily shift arrangement. Second, you can ask for the expected service life of the on-board lithium battery under standard regular operation, to calculate the full-cycle use cost of the whole equipment. Third, confirm whether the equipment supports opportunity charging, so that you can arrange short time charging during the rest gap of operation to adapt to multi-shift non-stop working mode. Fourth, check the waterproof and dustproof rating of the whole vehicle and the independent lithium battery pack, to make sure it can adapt to the dust or splash environment of your operation site. Fifth, confirm the rated maximum lifting weight and the minimum applicable aisle width of the selected model, to avoid the situation that the equipment cannot pass through your existing warehouse channel or cannot lift the goods of full rated weight stably. Sixth, ask about the coverage scope of local after-sales service, to guarantee that on-site maintenance support can be provided in time when there is a small fault during daily use. Seventh, confirm the standard warranty period of the whole vehicle and the core lithium battery component, to know the free maintenance scope in the early stage of use. Eighth, confirm the applicable working temperature range of the equipment, to judge whether it can run stably in special scenarios such as low temperature cold storage or high temperature open yard. Ninth, ask about the average daily energy consumption under your usual operation intensity, to calculate the long-term operation cost accurately. Tenth, confirm whether the on-board control system reserves expansion interface for intelligent transformation, to adapt to the possible upgrade demands of your warehouse management system in the future.

All these questions are designed to help you fully evaluate the comprehensive performance and applicability of the lithium forklift.
