    A Comparison of the Many Types of Forklifts
    In the world of industrial material handling, forklifts are a must – but it can be difficult to know which to use in different situations. The appropriate forklift for a specific job is determined by application, load capacity and type, as well as your ultimate destination, so choosing the right kind of forklift is imperative. Unsure of what you need? Here are a few of the different types of forklifts that can help improve your business. Internal Combustion Forklift One of the most popular types of forklifts is the internal combustion (IC) forklift, which can come with pneumatic or cushion tires depending on your application. The IC pneumatic tire forklift is great for heavy-duty applications. This forklift type has air-filled tires and can range from 3,000 to 33,000 lbs. lift capacity. The IC cushion tire Forklift has solid rubber tires and is a multi-purpose forklift that has a lift capacity of 3,000-15,500lbs. These types of forklifts are best for outdoor settings. Electric Forklifts The Electric Forklift is also a very popular type of forklift that helps you maintain your environmental footprint while meeting the most demanding applications. The Electric Forklift also comes with a pneumatic or cushion tire and can be purchased in a 3 or 4-wheel model, depending on your needs. These forklifts carry a lift capacity from 2,500 to 33,000 lbs. Electric forklifts are great for indoor or warehouse settings as they don`t emit anything into the air like IC lifts.. Reach Forklifts and Turret Trucks When it comes to space and size, reach forklifts have some of the largest types of forklifts on the market. Reach lifts are very maneuverable and able to turn tight corners in crowded spaces. The forks are mounted on a large extendable boom and the body features outriggers to stabilize the forklift on rough or uneven terrain.

    What is A Forklift Tune up/Clean Up?
    The engine on a forklift is installed opposite of a car – the fan and radiator are in the back! They don`t go fast enough to have outside air push through the radiator and help with cooling so they are designed to `draw` air from underneath and the fan pushes air through the radiator to keep it cool. Surface conditions in most forklift applications are dirty! General dust inside a plant Dirt from outside parking lots Oil from machining / stamping Debris – plastic wrap, pallet netting, and strapping These ALL get drawn in underneath the forklift and blown into the radiator. After time, the radiator can begin to plug up and the problem of overheating accelerates. Our technicians see it all the time – part of our scheduled PM is to use compressed air to blow that radiator clean. There comes a point where it makes sense to have the unit brought for a thorough Clean-up/Tune-up and PM Here`s how it happens: 1. We schedule the unit for pick-up when you can spare the machine – we`ll bring a rental if that helps! 2. Our technicians use our High Pressure / High Heat wash bay to deep-clean your forklift a. A degreasing soap detergent is applied in the engine compartment (we`re careful to protect electrical components). b. The soap is allowed to soak and cut through built-up dirt and oil that has accumulated with use. c. The unit is washed thoroughly paying special attention to the radiator to maximize cooling capacity

    What you need to know about forks for your lift truck
    Assumptions and mistakes are often made when it comes to the forks on your lift truck. Forks are the first and last thing to touch your products and materials and can often be the difference in safe and efficient handling and unstable loads and damaged product. Here are some quick facts: There are (4) classes of forks that have unique mounting dimensions and capacity Class I Hanger inside dimension = 13.03" Capacity less than 2,000lbs Class II Hanger inside dimension = 16.00" – most common! Capacity = 2,000lbs to 5,500lbs Class III Hanger inside dimension = 20.00" Capacity = 5,501 - 11,000lbs Class IV Hanger inside dimension = 25.00" Capacity = 11,000 - 17,500lbs Fork Tips and Taper can vary as well. Tips can be angled or blunt. Taper options include a standard where the forward-facing 50% of the fork is angled towards the tip as well as full-taper and polished forks with a thinner profile and smooth face-surface to slide into loads such as corrugated, lumber, sheet stock, and drywall more easily. Tip and Taper combinations are available across all the fork classes. Here are some common things that can go wrong: Forks that are too short don't properly support the extent of the load and can lead to broken pallets and damaged product Forks that are too narrow decrease lateral stability and can lead to product tipping side to side Forks that are too long can extend beyond the pallet or load and lead to significant property damage or worse - employee injuries!

    Electric forklifts gain ground in warehouses, manufacturing facilities
    Electric forklifts and lift trucks have been prized for the same reasons many autos in the 1920s were battery-powered: They are quiet, non-polluting, smooth running and easy to maintain. Despite the benefits, only about half the industrial truck market was electric 30 years ago, according to the Industrial Truck Association. Fossil fuels in the form of gasoline, diesel and liquefied petroleum gas have been staples of indoor and outdoor materials handling use. Material handling manufacturers struggled to provide electric options that matched internal combustion engines' cost, refill times and throughput capability. But the market is beginning to change. Electric makes up 64% of the North American lift truck market, ITA data shows. The lithium-ion battery technology that powers Teslas and other EVs is making its way into material handling equipment for warehouses and manufacturing plants. The two sites are nearly perfect for EV adoption due to their controlled environments and charging infrastructure. The electric trucks allow operations managers to reduce emissions in their facilities, without concern that the equipment won't meet performance requirements. "The adoption rate has accelerated because now electric trucks have the same or better performance and longer run times," said Bill Byrd, senior manager of national account sales at Toyota Material Handling. "The charger technology has advanced enough so multiple shifts can be run without having to change batteries." As electric forklift technology continues to improve, users can get up to two full shifts of runtime on a single battery charge, said Michael Brunnet, Warehouse and Systems Truck sales manager at Mitsubishi

    Several Reasons to Choose Forklift with EPS
    With the continuous development of forklift technology and the rapid expansion of logistics demand, storage equipment such as electric forklifts, electric pallet trucks, electric stackers, and forward-moving forklifts are more and more widely used in logistics. At the same time, with the people's pursuit of a safe, lightweight and comfortable driving environment, the steering function of domestic electric forklifts generally adopts the problem of easy oil leakage and complicated structure of hydraulic power steering system, which cannot be ignored. At this time, the emergence of the application of EPS electric power steering system technology has brought dawn to this confusion. It is favored by people because of its advantages of light weight, simplicity, energy saving and cleanness. This will also indicate that the use of EPS electric power steering systems will become more and more common and will eventually replace traditional hydraulic steering. At present, Zowell electric forklift has successfully applied EPS electric power steering technology to solve the shortcomings of the traditional hydraulic steering gear, such as easy leakage, many pipelines, easy aging, high oil temperature and complicated structure. At the same time, the driver can control the steering angle more precisely, which is more important for electric vehicles operating in tight spaces. The steering force is small, the driver is easier, the work is more efficient, and the safety is greatly improved. The following picture shows the full-electric stacker that successfully used EPS electric power steering technology in Zowell Electric Forklift to conduct a strong test on site:

    Scissor lift truck Introduction
    Scissor lift trucks are often used for the lifting operation of high-altitude cargo or the lifting operation of personnel. In such an environment, the safety performance of scissor lift is the most important guarantee for lifting freight elevator operations, and the safety performance of scissor lift trucks is There is a close relationship between mechanical safety and proper operation. Safety performance Lifting lifts are equipped with safety devices for traditional traction elevators. They are also equipped with: Relief valves: to prevent excessive system pressure during upward movement. Emergency manual valve: When the power supply fails, the car can be lowered to the nearest emergency. The door of the floor opens the door and the hand pump: when the system fails, the manual pump can be operated to press the high pressure oil to lift the car to the nearest floor position; the pipeline rupture valve: when the hydraulic system pipeline ruptures, the car stalls, Automatically shut off the oil line to stop falling. Oil tank oil temperature protection: When the oil temperature in the oil tank exceeds the standard setting value, the oil temperature protection device generates a signal and suspends use of the elevator. When the oil temperature drops, the elevator can be started. Precautions Judging from the safety performance of the machinery itself, there are no major safety issues after national safety certification. The main problems are concentrated in the fact that mechanical components are detached or damaged due to various factors after the lift lifts are used for a period of time. This problem depends on the regular inspection and maintenance of machinery.

    Analysis of forklift collision accidents, how to effectively prevent the forklift from colliding with people/cars/cargo
    According to statistics from OSHA of the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration in 2013, 85 persons in North America were killed by a forklift accident, 34,900 were seriously injured due to a forklift accident, and 6,1800 were slightly injured due to a forklift accident. Under U.S. high-pressure inspection in the United States, there are still a large number of forklift accidents in the United States. In China, for the 3 million forklift trucks, there are a lot of fatal accidents such as blind spots, fatigue, speeding, squats, collisions, roller compaction, and crashes caused by steering. It caused serious consequences such as suspension of production lines, massive compensation, and leadership accountability. How can forklifts effectively prevent people/vehicles/cargo from colliding with forklift trucks? The following is an example of a forklift collision accident that took place in Shagang Group in 2003. (I) Accident Overview On February 4, 2003, Jiangsu Suzhou Shagang Group North Runzhong Company's three-shift workshop Class B forklift gongao XX shipped two bundles of wire rods (weight 4.9 tons) to the outside of the workshop for stacking.

    The importance of forklift operator comfort
    A forklift operator`s office is the truck`s cabin so it`s essential that every aspect of the cab`s design is considered if the operator is going to be kept comfortable and productive throughout the working day, says Toyota Material Handling UK`s Gary Ison Ergonomics is often defined as `the science of fitting a workplace to the user`s needs`. But when something is described as being `ergonomically designed` it doesn`t simply mean that it is `suitable for purpose.` Ergonomic means that special attention has been given to the development of a product to ensure that it is the best possible `fit` for the user, the environment and the task it is expected to perform. It has long been accepted that reducing worker discomfort by placing greater emphasis on ergonomics has a positive impact on efficiency and productivity. In a modern office environment, for example, the design of desks, chairs, monitors, keyboards and lighting is assessed in

    Electric technology drives the development of electric forklifts
    Electric technology drives the development of electric forklifts The oldest and most traditional series of DC electric forklifts have been gradually eliminated. Because the traditional electric forklifts are to deliver power to the battery and turn dry, so there is current using carbon brushes to transport, and carbon brushes It is a consumable part and needs to be replaced regularly. Not only is the performance determined by the carbon brush, which limits the performance of the braking performance, and the carbon brush is a wearing part and needs to be replaced regularly, otherwise it will be Affects motor life. Therefore, in order to solve this problem of the majority of users, electric forklift manufacturers have a more advanced DC electric forklift. This electric forklift is the same as the series motor. This technology uses separately excited excitation magnetic field and armature. However, this motor has better performance than a series motor, but its defect is the same as that of a series motor. Later, there was a three-phase AC motor, which is technically relatively simple. The principle is to deliver three-phase alternating current to a fixed coil, producing a rotating magnetic field that induces a voltage on the shorted rotor. This type of AC motor has no carbon brush, so there is no defect in the carbon brush, and there is no limitation on the maximum current of the DC motor. Therefore, it is the inevitable development trend of electric forklift power. The heat generated by this motor is mainly in the fixed sub-coil of the motor casing, which is good for cooling and heat dissipation, and the rotor can be sealed according to requirements. Without a carbon brush, there are no consumables that need to be replaced r

    [REPRINT]The forklift manufacturer tells you how to prevent the forklift from malfunctioning
    The forklift manufacturer tells you how to prevent the forklift from malfunctioning. The method of prevention. According to the manufacturer's rules, establish a life list of parts and components; each forklift sets up a statistical table of the use of parts, and records the various parts of the consumables, the hours of operation of the forklift, etc., and compares them with the life table. In case of extreme working time, replace it in time. Human error. For example, when the carburetor is maintained, the spring washer is dropped into the intake pipe, causing the piston to be abolished; the anti-freezing water is loose, causing the oil sump to enter the water; if the repair is accidentally, the crankshaft timing gear is bumped by the object, presenting A bulge, the bulge against the timing gear on the camshaft caused an abnormal noise in the engine. The seal ring device on the valve guide improperly caused the exhaust pipe to smash the oil; if the abnormal sound was not adopted, the shaft was scrapped; the connecting rod bolt was too tight and damaged, causing the engine cylinder to be invalid. Anti-leakage method. Carefully dispose of all kinds of pads. Such as oil pan or valve cover, because of the large touch area, it is not easy to compact, and simply forms oil leakage. The oil leaks from the oil seal at the rear of the crankshaft, and the oil will enter the clutch, which will bother the oil and cause the clutch plate to slip and burn.

    Warehouse storage rack systems , different choices , material handing equipments.
    The narrow aisle racks is a special storage mode derived from the beam racks. The warehouse rack structure is similar to the beam racks, and only need to install the the ground guide rail. The narrow aisle racks adopts a very narrow aisle forklift to deposit the pallet in the aisle. The fork of VNA forklift is equipped with three-way rotation function, which can go straight in the channel quickly. When depositing the pallet, the forklift does not need to turn, but only needs the fork to rotate. Therefore, the reserved channel of forklift is generally about 1600-2000mm. The utilization rate of warehouse can reach about 50%. With 100% picking rate, it is an ideal choice for pursuing FIFO and high capacity. VNA forklift is widely used in Automobile and parts, third-party logistics, manufacturing, food and beverage, chemical industry, electronics industries etc; Advantages and disadvantages of narrow aisle racks. Advantages: 1. The main body of the narrow aisle racks is still the beam rack system, so it can be 100% picked. 2. Compared with ordinary beam racks, the difference is equipped with a "three-way stacking forklift". The pickup aisle of the forklift is relatively narrow, generally about 1.6-2m, which can save the plane space utilization of the warehouse. The height of VNA racks can reach 15m, which can greatly improve the utilization rate of height space, with a space utilization rate of about 50% ~ 60%. 3. The fork of VNAforklift has the functions of three-way rotation and side movement. Therefore, the forklift does not need to turn at right angles when taking pallet goods in the channel. It is used with Counterbalance forklift outside the aisle, which has high efficie

    Forklift operator crisis driving automation sales
    Toyota`s Paul Freeman says: [We hear a lot about the problems caused by the present lack of HGV drivers but the scarcity of qualified MHE operators is just as much of an issue for many UK supply chains." A recent study by Logistics UK showed that in 2019, 79,000 EU nationals left the UK logistics industry – around 7,000 of whom were lift truck drivers. The exodus is thought to have gathered pace over the past 18 months and, with the Covid crisis adding high rates of staff absenteeism to the mix, the number of qualified lift truck operators in the UK is estimated to be down by some 25 per cent on the figure needed to run the nation`s forklift fleet. Furthermore, with close to a third of Britain`s remaining forklift drivers said to be EU nationals, the decision to limit overseas workers` access to the UK jobs market means that, in the longer term, the situation is only likely to become worse – which, Toyota forecasts, will further hasten the take-up of automated technology. In addition, the widening gap between supply and demand, means that forklift operator wages are rising. Given that human labour is already one of the most significant warehouse operation costs, any significant hike in lift truck drivers` earnings is only likely to strengthen the argument for switching to automation, Toyota contend. Paul Freeman explains: [At Toyota we increasingly find that companies across all industry sectors are seeking to mitigate the impact that the dearth of forklift drivers is having on their busi

Joe sir, the salesman of Toyota's rival, arrived at the customer's company with me at the same time. During the negotiation, I saw that the procurement manager chatted with him pleasantly, and I felt great pressure. When it was my turn to introduce the products to Ms. Chen, her attitude was very cautious and did not achieve the expected effect. This makes me feel very lost; In this round, you're moving one way and I'm planning my way. I planned to recommend electric reach truck: FRC15. On the second visit, I brought a beautiful water cup to Miss Chen of the purchasing department, and suggested that the customer try our FRC15 model for free. The customer was very interested in it. It was such a good thing to use the equipment without spending any money, she introduced his boss to me immediately , director Lin. During the visiting to director Lin ,i saw a picture of a two or three-year-old child on his desk, i took this chance to talk with him and learned that his child was also around him, looks cute; In the next visitings, we gave a present of a "children's early education machine" and confirmed the specific details of the trial forklift. At this time, director Lin asked me to find warehouse manager Mr.Chen and informed him the vice president approved to try the forklift. Now we just need to determine the specific delivery time of the forklift and the process of picking the forklift. (Because Toyota cannot provide trial forklifts, our company has a FRC15 model for exhibition, which can increase the opportunity to interact with customers and obtain more information through trial cars.)

During the chatting, I learned that warehouse manager Mr. Chen had been to Toyota to view the equipment, and didn't come back until more than 11 p.m. I felt bad. I visited Mr.Chen hastily the next day. Mr.Chen discussed the specific matters of the trial equipment, but Mr. Chen refused me directly. He thought that it was unnecessary to try, just go to see the car( We have no more advantages than Toyota in Dongguan city, but we're not sure about the time to see the car. We've been informed that don't have time to go. A week passed, so far, it seems to have fallen into another impasse. I immediately decided to start from Xiao Wang, the forklift maintenance staff of the general affairs department. Xiao Wang had contacted Zowell Forklift before and recognized our products. Then I gave him a gift and communicated with him. I tried tp ask him for help to send a message to the vice president. I applied both sides to take a look and comparision. Xiao Wang was very happy and said he would help me. Two days later, Mr. Chen contacted me to visit the sample equipment in our company. (To be honest, till now, I don't know whether Xiao Wang or director Lin helped me, but anyway, if the relationship is done, someone will naturally help.)

    3 dangers in warehouse deserves attention Efficiency is one of the values we most cherished. Maybe you have prepared professional equipment and racks to manage every space in your warehouse. A minimal error or deviation may result in wide divergence. The 3 dangers will help you to formulate regulations of warehouse. 1.Collapse Collapse hazard should be attached importance especially in high stacking, where light goods will be powerful and dangerous after falling process. Check the load center and other specifications of trucks and operate it in right way. Manage your goods in appropriate position. The heaviest goods should be placed on the bottom while the lightest goods should be placed highly to prevent the damage to racks. 2.Collision As the saying goes, driving steadily is worth more than driving fast. Many accidents could be prevented if you paid enough attention to details. An experienced operator always keeps working aisle free of obstacle or other unusual condition such as oil before start stacking. Employees should also wear protective clothing and helmets just in case.

    Confused about [ATEX" compliant lithium-ion forklift batteries?
    Source:Pyroban Ltd. Confused about [ATEX" compliant lithium-ion forklift batteries? Using a lithium-ion battery to power a lift truck has many advantages in the right application, but (at the time of writing in June 2021) the requirements to assure lithium-ion batteries are safe for use in potentially explosive atmospheres is not clear. Some manufacturers have placed trucks with lithium-ion batteries into Ex applications but others, including Pyroban do not believe the technology is appropriate at this time. Steve Noakes, Managing Director of Pyroban and convenor of the EN1755 standards committee, explains the problem. We receive a growing number of enquiries for Ex-certified lithium-ion battery options, and for good reason. Lithium-ion batteries allow opportunity charging, require less maintenance, and offer longer operation between charges, so have proven to be popular in many industries. However, as it stands in June 2021, for the foreseeable future Pyroban declines to quote for the ATEX conversion of lithium-ion forklift trucks.
