Electric forklift are really the best choice for warehouses, manufacturing applications, and other indoor use, for two main reasons.
One is producing zero emissions - if you're going to be through its forklift indoors, this is a very important consideration. Of the internal combustion models, only propane-powered lifts can be used indoors, and still require very good ventilation. Gas and diesel models can not be used at all.
The other main advantage is price of fuel. Electric forklifts have a lower cost per hour of operation than any of the internal combustion (IC) models. This helps to offset their disadvantages - its highest initial cost. New electric forklift can cost 20% to 40% more than similarly rated IC forklifts.
Benefits of an electric forklift truck are quieter operation - another great advantage of opportunities - and not the needs of fuel storage. Because they have fewer moving parts and are often used in environments cleaner than IC trucks, but they also tend to have a longer lifespan.
The biggest disadvantage of a forklift electric battery is idle. Electric forklift are powered by large, heavy, lead-acid batteries - the same type found in his car, but considerably larger and more powerful. The batteries typically provide enough power for a standard eight-hour shift, which translates into 5 or 6 hours of continuous use.
The burden of a forklift truck battery is 8 hours, plus an additional 8 hours of cooling time before it can be used. Due to this slow speed of loading, if you need forklifts for two or three foreign exchange, you will need to buy extra batteries so that it can always be the burden of following the addition of $ 1000 to $ 2000 for the price purchase.
Other disadvantages include the need for a battery charge. Shippers must be located in a dry, ventilated and temperature-controlled location. If you have multiple batteries, will also have special cranes to change the batteries. Electric forklift are also not suitable for outdoor use - while you can use in a well-paved parking, can not be used in the rain.
