Scope of Application and Performance Evaluation of Forklifts

Scope of Application of Forklifts

Forklift parts are widely used in ports, stations, airports, freight yards, factory workshops, warehouses, distribution centers and distribution centers, etc. They can also enter the ship's hold, carriage and container to carry out loading and unloading, handling operations of pallet cargo, and are essential equipment in pallet transportation and container transportation. Forklift accessories play a very important role in the logistics system of enterprises and are the main force in material handling equipment. The self-propelled forklift truck appeared in 1917. During the Second World War, forklift accessories were developed. China started to manufacture forklifts from the early 1950s. Especially with the rapid development of economy, the material handling of most enterprises has been separated from the original manual handling and replaced by mechanized handling mainly by forklifts. Therefore, in the past few years, the demand of forklift market has been growing at a double-digit rate every year. At present, there are many brands of forklift parts available in the market and the models are complicated, plus the products themselves are technically strong and very professional, so the selection of models and suppliers is a frequent problem faced by many shopping enterprises.

If you have the need to buy forklift parts, hydraulic parts or other engine parts, you can choose us mymromarts, we have many parts for you to choose.

Performance Judging

In the comprehensive assessment, many enterprises often cannot make a reasonable judgment on the product quality due to their lack of understanding of forklift expertise and technology.

make reasonable judgment. Generally speaking, the superior performance of high quality forklifts is often reflected in many aspects such as high efficiency, low cost, high reliability, good ergonomic design and convenient service.

High Efficiency

High efficiency does not only mean high speed (driving, lifting, descending speed), it also means that the operator takes a short time to complete a work cycle and can maintain this efficiency throughout the working time. Many factors can contribute to efficiency.

① The level of speed, such as travel speed, lifting and lowering speed, etc.

② The application of ergonomic design to reduce the number of operating actions.

③ The precision of the operation.

④ the application of ergonomic design to minimize fatigue.

⑤ good visibility.

Low Cost

The total annual costs incurred by a company when purchasing and using a forklift include.

① Purchasing costs.

② Maintenance cost.

③ Energy consumption cost.

④ Labor cost.

The purchase cost will be spread out over the life of the forklift. Therefore the high priced forklift will make the purchase cost lower because of its longer life. The actual maintenance cost is not only related to the cost of repair parts, but also related to the failure rate or failure time. Therefore, a high quality forklift truck will have lower maintenance costs due to its lower failure rate. Energy cost will vary with different power systems of the forklift, such as electrical energy, diesel, LPG or gasoline. Labor costs vary with the number of operators and their total monthly salary, the number of operators will be reduced by the use of high efficiency forklifts.

High security

The safety design of a forklift truck should be able to fully guarantee the safety of the driver, the cargo and the forklift itself. High-quality forklifts tend to consider every detail and every possibility in terms of safety design.

Ergonomics

Ergonomics is a science widely applied to product design, especially to improve the operating environment, with the aim of maximizing productivity by means of reducing driver fatigue and increasing operating comfort. In forklift design, ergonomics is reflected in various aspects.

① Reducing driver fatigue during operation: the unique design can reduce the driver's operating action and make the operation more effortless.

② Comfort: the humanized design can keep the driver in a good mood and reduce operation errors.

③ Good vision: providing a good vision for the forklift operation process not only improves efficiency, but also ensures driver safety.
