How to choose electric forklift according to working conditions?
Choosing an battery operated forklift mainly depends on the model and configuration of the vehicle, so what factors should be considered when choosing the model and configuration of the electric forklift?
1. Operation function of electric forklift
The operating functions of forklifts can be commonly divided into horizontal pallet handling, stacking and unloading of goods, picking and selecting goods, etc. The enterprise chooses the corresponding model according to the operation function required by itself. If there are special operational requirements, forklift accessories can be equipped, such as forklift fixtures, hooks, forklift sets, etc.
2. Operating requirements of electric forklifts
Choose the corresponding model according to the requirements of the forklift's dimensions, such as turning radius, width, height, etc., on the warehouse shelves where the forklift is operating. There is also a need to consider the driver's driving habits, etc., whether to drive by car or stand, or walk a stacker.
3. Choose the electric forklift model according to the working environment
If the company has strict requirements for multiple environments, such as air quality, environmental noise, etc., then you should choose an electric forklift with high precision and low noise; if the company has a special operating environment and needs to be equipped with a cold storage or explosion-proof forklift, then it is necessary before buying Communicate with the electric forklift supplier.
When communicating with forklift suppliers, you must carefully list your own operating conditions, record the purchase precautions after on-site survey of the use environment, and make sure that the purchased electric forklift model is the model that the company needs. If there are still several models to be selected after considering the above working conditions, then the following aspects can be considered:
① The work efficiency is different for different models, and different operators need to be equipped with different work efficiency, which is related to the issue of personnel costs.
② Considering the layout of the existing warehouses, the selected models are also different. If an unsuitable model is selected carelessly, the layout of the warehouse needs to be changed. This is not worth the gain and will delay the normal operation of the enterprise.
③ Whether it is consistent with the original forklift model of the enterprise, if it is inconsistent, whether another arrangement should be made in management, and whether it will affect the personnel cost.
④ Does the choice of model affect after-sales service? For example, the three-way stacking forklift with high usage rate in the market and the low-level three-way stacking forklift with less inventory, although the two are very similar, the high-level one is beyond completely covering the low-level functions , The performance is more outstanding, so the market sales and inventory are much higher than the low ones. Electric forklift manufacturers or distributors also strongly support the high-level driving of the three stacking forklifts, and the high-level after-sales will also have an advantage over the position.
