Many operators in warehousing, manufacturing and freight industries once hold the stereotype that traditional fuel-powered forklifts have obvious advantage in load bearing and operation intensity, which cannot be replaced by electric counterparts in high-workload scenarios. In fact, with the steady development of new energy industrial vehicle technology in recent years, the performance gap between qualified electric forklifts and traditional fuel models has been narrowed to a very limited range in most common application scenarios.
First, from the perspective of static load and dynamic lifting parameters, mainstream electric forklift products can cover the load range from 1 ton to over 10 tons, which can fully match the common specification of most traditional fuel forklifts on the market. For daily cargo handling, high position stacking, short-distance material transfer and other conventional operations in ordinary warehouses, production workshops, common freight yards and light port operation areas, properly configured electric forklifts can complete the same total daily workload stably, without obvious functional difference compared with traditional models.
The tiny performance difference between the two types of equipment is mainly reflected in the ultra-high intensity non-stop working scenarios. Traditional fuel forklifts can complete fuel replenishment within a few minutes and resume work immediately, while electric forklifts need to arrange charging or battery replacement in the gap between work shifts. For operation scenarios that require three-shift uninterrupted work throughout the day, enterprises can configure matched spare backup batteries for electric forklifts to eliminate the restriction of charging duration, to make sure the total daily workload can reach the same level as traditional fuel forklifts.
In addition to meeting the same workload requirement as traditional forklifts, high-quality electric forklifts also bring additional practical values including zero tail gas emission, lower operation noise, and lower daily maintenance cost, which fits the current green production and low-carbon operation requirements of most industrial and logistics enterprises.
