Is it better to use lithium battery or lead acid battery for forklift?

　　Is the operation and control of lithium battery forklift simple? Flexible outside? The operating intensity of its operators is much lighter than that of diesel forklift trucks? Its electric steering system? Accelerated control system? The hydraulic control system and brake system are controlled by electrical signals? It greatly reduces the labor intensity of operators? In this way, it is very helpful to improve the operation efficiency and accuracy. At present, there are two kinds of batteries used by forklift trucks in the market, one is lithium battery, the other is lead-acid battery. The following section will focus on the advantages of lithium battery compared with lead-acid battery.

　　Reduce additional and subsequent costs

　　The purchase price of lithium ion batteries is much higher than that of widely used lead-acid batteries. However, the overall cost of lithium-ion battery will be lower than that of lead-acid battery in a short time due to its low additional cost and subsequent cost.

　　First of all, energy-saving batteries do not need maintenance, nor do they need to invest in special storage rooms or battery replacement equipment. Instead, it is replaced by a lithium battery that can be charged and discharged at any time, and can be fully charged within an hour.

　　In addition, the electric multi-directional side loader using lithium ion technology for forklift is impressive due to its high energy density and fast charging time. Most forklift trucks also benefit from reducing wear, as lithium-ion batteries are about one-third of the weight of lead-acid batteries

　　In addition, the operating principle of the lithium-ion battery enables it to absorb the energy of vehicle reaction and convert it into electric energy to ensure a longer endurance.

　　All these factors can ensure that compared with lead-acid batteries, lithium ion batteries can reduce energy consumption by 1.5 times, thus significantly reducing the cost of investment. The stable voltage of the lithium-ion battery can also handle the forklift smoothly within the temperature range of - 25 ° C to+55 ° C, which is not possible with lead-acid batteries.

　　In fact, until now, lead-acid battery is still the first choice for internal logistics career due to its low acquisition cost. However, the continuous improvement of lithium-ion batteries and the reduction of related production costs are causing industry professionals to reconsider. More and more companies are relying on forklifts equipped with this advanced technology to handle their internal logistics mission.
