What is an internal combustion forklift?
Publish Time: 2024-05-24
Internal combustion forklifts refer to forklifts that use internal combustion engines (such as diesel engines or gasoline engines) as a power source. This type of forklift generates power through the combustion of fuel (such as diesel, gasoline or liquefied petroleum gas, etc.) by the internal combustion engine, thereby driving the various functions of the forklift, such as lifting, handling, stacking and driving.The main features of internal combustion forklifts include:Powerful: Since internal combustion engines can generate higher torque and power, internal combustion forklifts usually have a larger load capacity and stronger power performance, suitable for heavy loads and long working hours.Fuel-driven: Internal combustion forklifts use fuel as a power source, which means that they do not require an external power supply or battery pack, so they have better mobility and adaptability, and can be used in places where there is no power supply or unstable power supply.Wide range of applications: Internal combustion forklifts can work in various harsh environments, such as high temperature, low temperature, humidity, dusty environments, etc., and the requirements for the working environment are relatively low.Maintenance cost: The maintenance cost of internal combustion forklifts is relatively high, because they need to regularly replace parts such as engine oil, air filters, spark plugs, and require professional maintenance and maintenance.Emission issues: Since internal combustion engines produce exhaust gas and noise during combustion, internal combustion forklifts need more attention and improvement in environmental protection and noise control.In general, internal combustion forklifts are a widely used logistics handling equipment, especially suitable for heavy loads, long working hours and occasions without stable power supply. However, with the improvement of environmental awareness and technological advancement, clean energy forklifts such as electric forklifts are gradually receiving more attention and favor.
