In the power source selection of electric forklift trucks, lead-acid batteries, with their own many advantages, show a very broad application prospects and huge market potential.

In the context of the vigorous development of modern logistics and warehousing industry, the importance of electric forklift as an efficient material handling equipment has become increasingly prominent. In the power source selection of electric forklift trucks, lead-acid batteries, with their own many advantages, show a very broad application prospects and huge market potential.

Compared with traditional fuel forklifts, electric forklifts have obvious environmental advantages, which is in line with the current global pursuit of green development. Lead-acid batteries, as the main power source of electric forklifts, play a key role in this environmental trend. In the storage and logistics warehouse, the air circulation is relatively poor, and the exhaust gas emitted during the operation of the fuel forklift, such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, will seriously pollute the indoor air and endanger the health of the staff. The electric forklift truck using lead-acid batteries has almost zero emissions during operation, and only a small amount of electric energy consumption is transformed in the charging link, which greatly improves the working environment. Taking the intelligent storage center of a large e-commerce enterprise as an example, after the large-scale introduction of electric forklift trucks and equipped with lead-acid batteries, the air quality in the warehouse has been significantly improved, and the health problems caused by air pollution of the staff have been greatly reduced, and at the same time, the green operation concept of the enterprise has been met, and the social image of the enterprise has been enhanced.

From a cost-benefit point of view, lead-acid batteries have obvious advantages in the field of electric forklifts. First of all, lead-acid battery technology is mature and the production process is stable, which makes its manufacturing cost relatively low. Compared with other batteries such as emerging lithium batteries, the acquisition cost of lead-acid batteries can be 30% to 50% lower. For logistics companies, procurement costs are an important factor affecting equipment selection, and lower battery procurement costs mean less initial investment pressure. Secondly, in terms of maintenance, lead-acid batteries are simple to operate and have low maintenance costs. After simple training, the forklift operators of logistics enterprises can master the daily maintenance points of lead-acid batteries, such as regularly checking the electrolyte level and replenishing distilled water. Moreover, the maintenance technology of lead-acid batteries is widely popularized, there are many maintenance outlets on the market, parts are easy to obtain, and maintenance costs are controllable. In contrast, lithium battery maintenance requires professional technicians and special equipment, and maintenance costs are high. After long-term use, the overall cost advantage of lead-acid batteries on electric forklifts is very prominent, which saves a lot of money for logistics enterprises and improves the economic benefits of enterprises.

In terms of performance matching degree, lead-acid batteries are highly compatible with the working needs of electric forklifts. In the logistics and warehousing operation, electric forklift trucks are frequently faced with starting, accelerating, carrying heavy objects and other conditions, which requires the power source to provide a powerful current instantaneously. The lead-acid battery has good high current discharge performance, which can meet the requirements of high power output when the electric forklift starts with full load and quickly lifts the cargo, so as to ensure the smooth and efficient operation of the forklift. At the same time, the endurance capacity of the lead-acid battery can also meet the needs of the electric forklift during regular working hours. Under normal circumstances, an electric forklift equipped with the appropriate capacity of lead-acid batteries can meet the continuous working time of 8-10 hours on a single charge, which matches the single-shift working time of most logistics warehouses. Even under the high intensity operation requirements, the continuous operation of the forklift can be guaranteed by rapid battery replacement, etc., to meet the high strength and efficient material handling needs of logistics enterprises.

At present, the global logistics and warehousing industry is in a stage of rapid expansion, emerging markets continue to rise, and the demand for electric forklifts continues to rise. Especially in developing countries, with the upgrading of the manufacturing industry, the rapid development of the e-commerce industry, and the acceleration of the construction of logistics and warehousing infrastructure, the market demand for electric forklifts has shown explosive growth. The lead-acid battery with its environmental protection, cost, performance and other advantages, become the first choice of electric forklift power source, in this wave of market expansion, will usher in a huge market opportunity. According to market research institutions predict that in the next five years, the global electric forklift market size will grow at an annual rate of 10%-15%, as the mainstream power source of lead-acid batteries, its market share will also steadily increase, the market potential is huge.

In the field of electric forklift trucks, lead-acid batteries conform to the trend of development of The Times with their environmental advantages, meet the actual needs of enterprises by virtue of cost-effectiveness and performance matching, and show a very broad application prospect and huge market potential under the general trend of market expansion. With the continuous progress of technology and the continuous development of the industry, lead-acid batteries are expected to continue to play an important role in the field of electric forklifts, providing solid power support for the efficient and green development of the global logistics and warehousing industry.
