This Li-ion Powered Pallet Truck uses a lithium-ion battery power system, which has significant technical advantages and more efficient performance compared to traditional lead-acid battery power systems. Lithium-ion batteries are known for their high energy density and can provide longer battery life at the same volume or weight, greatly improving the working efficiency of the equipment. At the same time, it supports fast charging, usually only 1 to 2 hours to fully charge, while traditional lead-acid batteries take 8 to 10 hours, effectively reducing equipment downtime.
In addition, lithium-ion batteries are completely maintenance-free and do not require regular electrolyte inspection or water addition like lead-acid batteries, reducing long-term use costs. Its cycle life can reach 2000 to 3000 times, far exceeding the 500 to 800 times of lead-acid batteries, making the overall economic efficiency better during the use cycle. In terms of weight, lithium-ion batteries are 30% to 50% lighter than lead-acid batteries, which helps to reduce the weight of the entire vehicle and improve handling flexibility and energy efficiency. Finally, lithium-ion batteries do not contain harmful substances such as lead and cadmium, are more environmentally friendly, and meet the sustainable development requirements of modern industry.
The core components of the power system include lithium-ion battery packs, intelligent battery management systems, and efficient motor drive systems. Lithium-ion battery packs usually use lithium iron phosphate or ternary lithium cells, both of which are excellent in safety and stability. The intelligent BMS is responsible for real-time monitoring of the battery voltage, current, and temperature to prevent overcharging or over-discharging, while ensuring the consistency of each cell in the battery pack through balanced charging technology, thereby extending the overall life.
In addition, the BMS also has a fault self-detection function, which can promptly alarm or cut off the power supply under abnormal conditions to improve the safety of the system. The motor drive system generally uses brushless DC motors or AC motors, which are not only powerful, but also can intelligently adjust the output according to load requirements and optimize energy consumption. Some high-end models are also equipped with an energy recovery system to convert kinetic energy into electrical energy storage when braking or going downhill, further improving the endurance.
In actual applications, the lithium-ion power system performs well, and a single charge can support the equipment to work continuously for 6 to 10 hours, depending on the load size and the operating environment. This efficient power solution is particularly suitable for high-intensity, multi-shift operation scenarios, such as logistics warehouses, production lines, and cold chain environments. In addition, lithium-ion batteries have strong temperature adaptability and can work stably in the range of -20℃~60℃, while the performance of lead-acid batteries will drop significantly in low temperature environments. This allows lithium-ion trucks to maintain reliable performance under various harsh working conditions.
The purchase cost of lithium-ion batteries is usually 2~3 times that of lead-acid batteries, but due to their long life and maintenance-free characteristics, long-term use is more economical. In addition, lithium-ion systems require special chargers, and ordinary lead-acid battery chargers are not compatible, otherwise the battery may be damaged. Therefore, when users choose lithium-ion trucks, they must ensure that the supporting charging facilities are in place.
