The technical parameters of the forklift are used to indicate the structural characteristics and working performance of the forklift. The most important technical parameters are nominal lifting weight, center of gravity distance, maximum lifting height, portal inclination, maximum driving speed, minimum turning radius, minimum ground clearance, wheelbase, wheelbase, etc.

What are the important parameters of a forklift truck?


1. The inclination of the portal: The inclination of the portal refers to the maximum inclination of the portal forward or backward relative to its vertical position when the forklift is standing on a flat and solid ground without load. The function of forward tilt angle is to facilitate picking up forks and unloading goods; The function of the rear tilt angle is to prevent the goods from slipping off the fork when the forklift is moving with goods. Generally, the front tilt angle of the forklift is 3°~6° and the rear tilt angle 10°~12°.

2. Maximum lifting speed: The maximum lifting speed of a forklift usually refers to the maximum speed at which the goods are lifted when the forklift is fully loaded, expressed in m/min (meters per minute). Increasing the maximum lifting speed can improve working efficiency, but if the lifting speed is too high, accidents with cargo and machine damage are likely to occur. The maximum lifting speed of household forklifts has been increased to 20 m/min.

3. Maximum driving speed: Increasing the driving speed has a big impact on improving the working efficiency of the forklift. For a forklift with an internal combustion engine and a lifting capacity of 1 t, the minimum travel speed at full load is no less than 17 m/min.


What should be considered when choosing a forklift truck?


If the goods or storage environment that the company must transport has environmental requirements such as noise or exhaust emissions, this should be taken into account when selecting models and configurations. If it is located in a cold store or in an environment with explosion protection requirements, the forklift configuration should also be a cold store type or explosion-proof type. Carefully examine the places the forklift must pass during operation and imagine possible problems, such as whether the door height affects the forklift when entering and leaving the warehouse. when entering and leaving the lift, the effects of the lift height and load on the forklift; for work on the upper floor, the soil load whether the appropriate conditions are met, etc.


What are the safety requirements for forklift work?


1. The portal must not be deformed and the welds are desoldered. The roll gap of the inner and outer portal is sensible to adjust and must not exceed 1.5mm. The rotation of the rollers must be flexible and the rollers and shafts must be free of cracks and defects. The degree of wear of the wheel groove must not exceed 10% of the original size.

2. The tension of the two lifting chains should be uniform, not twisted and deformed, the ends firmly connected, and the division of the chains should not exceed 4% of the original length, otherwise the chains should be replaced. The rotation of the sprocket should be flexible.
