Forklifts are widely used in logistics centers, warehouse complexes, construction sites during loading and unloading operations. By engine type, they are divided into electric and diesel trucks . Electric forklifts are used for work inside warehouses, because the charge level of their batteries is highly temperature dependent. In open working areas, diesel forklifts are used that are adapted to the harsh weather conditions. They are unpretentious in maintenance and easy to use, therefore they are widely used. The existing problem of starting this type of engines in cold weather in these loaders has been solved.
by installing a special system on them, allowing it to start in low temperatures. The use of this technique indoors is possible only if there is good ventilation in them.
Characteristics of diesel forklifts.
1.Maximum lifting height-8m.
2.Lifting capacity-up to 8t.
- Economical operating conditions due to cheap fuel.
- Large motor resource, allowing you to save on maintenance.
Choose a loader.
When choosing a diesel forklift, it is necessary to clearly know the types of transported goods and operating conditions. Usually, the weight of products does not exceed 3 tons, therefore, it is enough for warehouse equipment to have a lifting capacity of 3.5 tons . The maximum lifting height is also not required, because is determined by the dimensions of the rack equipment. The dimensions of this technique depend on the size of the working platforms on which they will be used. The need and types of additional equipment are identified based on the specifics of the planned loading and unloading operations. For example, when working with cargo on pallets, it is very convenient to have a device for horizontal movement of the forklift forks.
Correctly selected warehouse equipment must meet the conditions of its use, because the presence of redundant characteristics that will not be used during operation will only increase its cost.
