Forklifts can generally be divided into three categories: internal combustion forklifts, electric forklifts and storage forklifts.
1. Internal combustion
Internal combustion forklifts are divided into ordinary internal combustion forklifts, heavy forklifts, container forklifts and side forklifts.
①Ordinary internal combustion forklift
Due to the convenient fuel supply, it can realize long-term continuous operation and is competent for harsh environments (such as rainy days).
②Heavy forklift
It is generally used for outdoor operations in heavy cargo industries such as docks and steel.
③Container forklift
Generally, it can be divided into empty container stacker, heavy container stacker and container reach stacker. Used for container loading and unloading, such as container yard or port terminal operation.
④Side forklift
No need to turn, with the ability to fork goods directly from the side.
2. Electric drive
The motor is used as the power, and the battery is used as the energy source. Carrying capacity
Due to the low noise, it is widely used in indoor operations and other working conditions with high environmental requirements, such as medicine, food and other industries.
As people pay more attention to environmental protection, electric forklifts are gradually replacing internal combustion forklifts. Since each battery pack generally needs to be charged after working for about 8 hours, it is necessary to be equipped with a spare battery to adapt to multi-shift working conditions.
3. Warehouse
Forklifts are primarily designed for the handling of goods in warehouses. Except for a few forklifts (such as manual pallet trucks) that are driven by manpower, others are driven by electric motors. Because of its compact body, flexible movement, light weight, and good environmental performance, it is widely used in the storage industry.
