Forklifts are indispensable equipment in the modern logistics and warehousing industries, mainly used for handling, stacking and loading and unloading goods. According to different working environments and needs, forklifts are designed into a variety of working modes to meet the needs of various operating scenarios. Understanding the common working modes of forklifts not only helps to choose the right equipment, but also helps to improve work efficiency and safety.
This article will introduce you to several common forklift working modes.
Working mode: Counterbalanced forklifts are the most common type of forklifts. Their design features are to install a counterweight at the rear of the vehicle to balance the weight of the goods in the front. During operation, the forklift inserts the fork in front under the goods, and then lifts and moves the goods.
Applicable scenarios: Suitable for indoor and outdoor cargo handling, including loading and unloading trucks, containers, and cargo stacking in warehouses.
High flexibility: can be operated in narrow passages.
Strong carrying capacity: suitable for carrying heavy goods.
Diverse energy types: There are multiple power options such as internal combustion engines, electric and liquefied gas.
Working mode: The fork of the reach forklift can move forward and backward. When operating, the fork extends forward, lifts the goods and then retracts. This design enables the forklift to operate on higher shelves without increasing the length of the body.
Applicable scenarios: Mainly used for high-level shelf stacking operations in warehouses, suitable for narrow aisles and high-density storage environments.
High space utilization: Able to operate in narrow aisles to improve the utilization of warehouse space.
Large lifting height: A high lifting height can be achieved, suitable for high-level storage.
Working mode: Pallet trucks are also called ground bulls, which are divided into manual and electric types. During operation, the forklift inserts the fork under the pallet, uses the hydraulic system to lift the pallet, and then moves horizontally.
Applicable scenarios: Suitable for short-distance pallet handling, often used in internal logistics of supermarkets, factories and warehouses.
Easy to operate: simple structure, easy to operate and maintain.
Low cost: low purchase and maintenance costs.
Strong flexibility: small size, suitable for operation in small spaces.
Working mode: The picking forklift is designed for order picking. The operator can stand on the lifting platform and rise and fall with the forklift to facilitate picking goods on shelves at different heights.
Applicable scenarios: Applicable to warehouse picking operations in e-commerce, retail and other industries, especially those that require high efficiency, small batches, and multi-variety picking.
Improve picking efficiency: The operator can directly reach the storage location of the goods and reduce picking time.
High safety: Equipped with safety protection measures to ensure the safety of the operator.
Applicable scenarios: Applicable to uneven outdoor working environments such as construction sites, mines, and farms.
Strong passability: Adapt to various complex terrains.
Good stability: Stable operation can still be maintained on rugged ground.
passages.
Strong carrying capacity: suitable for carrying heavy goods.
Diverse energy types: There are multiple power options such as internal combustion engines, electric and liquefied gas.
