When most cold storage operators draw up new facility construction plans, they often take general warehouse layouts as reference and ignore the matching demand of material handling equipment, which will lead to problems such as low operation efficiency, high equipment loss and extra energy waste in the subsequent long-term operation. Building the whole cold storage facility plan centering on BYD lithium forklift can help you avoid these hidden risks from the very beginning of design.

First, you can adjust the functional partition layout of the cold storage according to the actual operation parameters of the BYD lithium forklift, including the minimum turning radius, standard operating channel width and maximum load capacity. You can set proper channel width for the receiving temporary storage area, high rack storage area, picking area and outgoing goods consolidation area, no need to reserve excessive redundant space, which can maximize the use of valuable low-temperature storage space and reduce the refrigeration energy consumption per unit storage area.

Second, you can arrange supporting facilities in a targeted way to fit the forklift’s operation habit. Set up a temperature-adapted small charging compartment near the forklift designated parking area inside the cold storage, so that operators do not need to drive the forklift to normal temperature area for charging, which can effectively avoid the condensation risk caused by frequent temperature difference alternation. You can also set up a simple daily inspection point near the parking area, so that operators can quickly finish the check of appearance, power level and key components between operation tasks, effectively extend the service life of the equipment.

Third, you can coordinate the whole operation process matching with the forklift’s performance parameters. Set the proper shelf height according to the maximum lifting height of the BYD lithium forklift, work out the standard transfer volume for each operation trip, sort out the full movement route from dock receiving to shelf storage and outgoing picking, so as to reduce the empty driving distance of the forklift, further cut down the overall operation energy consumption of the cold storage, and improve the daily throughput capacity.
