Lithium-ion batteries dominate between 65% to 70% in current market, compared with traditional lead-acid batteries.Less maintenance, lower costs, environmental sustainability, and overall worker satisfaction are a few key benefits of using lithium-ion batteries in forklifts.
Lithium-ion technology (Lithium Iron Phosphate) add exceptional charging flexibility and consistent, long-lasting performance.Lifepo4 batteries for forklift trucks and warehouse equipment improve operation and handling. They increase the availability of vehicles and make operations more economical, safer and at the same time more sustainable. Many users appreciate the practical advantages in everyday work.
In addition, vehicle control and Intelligent BMS (battery management system) are matched to each other, for example through the CAN bus interface, which enables systems to communicate with each other. The battery system thus balances peak loads and at the same time provides sufficient energy. This protects the battery and prolongs its operating life.
Benefits of Using a Lithium-ion Forklift Battery
1. Reduced Energy Bills
Conventional lead-acid batteries cause a whole series of maintenance and handling costs, which are completely eliminated with lithium-ion batteries.Lithium-ion forklift batteries are more energy-efficient and charge faster than lead-acid batteries, saving customers time and money.
2.Extended life cycle
Your lithium-ion battery will typically last two to four times longer than a lead acid battery. This helps you keep up with those long workdays.
3.Opportunity and fast charging
Li-ion batteries allow for opportunity charging, which provides greater flexibility and reduces downtime.Costly and time-consuming battery changes are no longer necessary.Lithium-ion forklift batteries charge significantly faster and don’t require a cool-down period. Operators can charge the battery during their breaks throughout the day.
4. Better Productivity
Lithium ion batteries are well suited for multi shift operations, with no performance degradation and fast recharge capability.During a shift lithium lift truck batteries will maintain a higher and consistent voltage. Consistent voltage means you will have a higher-performing forklift during all stages of the day, increasing throughput in your facility.
5. Less Environmental Impact
Li-ion batteries produce no harmful emissions while in operation.
6.Save The Space
Li-ion batteries are small and compact as no charging room is required, meaning more space for other equipment or warehouse operations.
7.Nearly Maintenance Free
Lithium forklift batteries use sealed cells that don’t require constant watering, equalizing, or cleaning. This will reduce both labor costs and downtime.Just charge up and go. Benefit from automatic equalization and no cleaning or watering.
