Product Overview
BYD EL38 is a 3.8-ton ride-on four-point electric forklift, focusing on stable handling under heavy-duty conditions. The whole vehicle adopts a heavy-duty counterweight chassis, which is optimized and adjusted for heavy cargo pallet loading and unloading and raw material transfer scenarios. Relying on BYD's mature high-voltage electronic control technology, the power output of the whole vehicle is stable and durable, and the pure electric drive design can meet the environmental management requirements of the factory area. It is a practical model for medium and large industrial and mining enterprises and logistics freight yards to replace fuel forklifts.
II. Core product advantages
1. Weigh the counterweight chassis for smooth operation under heavy load conditions
The four-wheel balance weight structure is adopted, and the vehicle's self-weight ratio is scientific. When lifting 3.8 tons of weight, the body is not easy to shake, and the ramp operation and high-level stacking can be maintained stably. Reasonably optimized wheelbase and wheelbase improve the vehicle's anti-roll ability. The chassis has good passability, which can not only operate flexibly in the flat roadway of the warehouse, but also cope with complex sites such as sand and gravel pavement, loading and unloading platforms in the factory area, and can take into account indoor and outdoor operation scenarios.
2. High-pressure power system, suitable for high-intensity multi-shift operations
The vehicle is equipped with high-power drive and hydraulic lifting motor, and with AC AC electronic control system, the power output is linear and sufficient, and the heavy-load lifting is smooth and smooth. The vehicle is equipped with 80V high-voltage battery, providing two capacity configurations of 280Ah and 560Ah, which can be flexibly selected according to the single-day operation time. The long-life version can support single-shift and above continuous operations. Pure electric operation, no exhaust gas is generated during the operation process, and can be used stably in closed plants and environmental protection control workshops.
3. Optimized driving space, taking into account safety and operating comfort
The cab of the whole vehicle has been optimized by ergonomics, and the layout of the shock-absorbing seats and operating rods is reasonable, which effectively relieves the fatigue caused by long-term continuous driving. The running noise of the whole vehicle is controlled within the industry standard, and the working environment is comfortable. The integrated roof guard provides safety protection for the operator, the hydraulic braking response is timely, the operation logic is simple and intuitive, and both new and old drivers can quickly adapt.
4. The whole structure is durable, reducing long-term operation and maintenance investment
Brushless AC motors reduce vulnerable parts and effectively reduce daily maintenance items. The hydraulic oil circuit has been tested under heavy load conditions, resulting in stable pressure and strong durability of valve body and oil cylinder. Compared with traditional internal combustion forklifts, fuel consumption and regular engine overhaul costs are saved, and later maintenance is simple. Long-term use can effectively control operating costs.
