What is the difference between electric forklifts and internal combustion forklifts?
Feb 10, 2023Electric forklifts and internal combustion forklifts seem to be basically similar, but there are still many differences, not only in specifications but also in working environment and characteristics. Xiaohun summarized the following points for everyone:
1.During operation, internal combustion forklifts are noisy and emit a lot of exhaust gas.
2.Electric forklifts use batteries, which have low noise during operation and no smoke and dust emissions. The weight and appearance of electric forklifts are much smaller than internal combustion forklifts.
3.Electric forklifts are suitable for the working environment, and electric forklifts are required for environmentally friendly enterprises, closed enterprises and storage factories. Compared with outdoor harsh environmental conditions, internal combustion forklifts are used more, such as: paper mills, grain and oil plants, cement plants, fertilizer plants, etc.
4.Electric forklifts are more expensive than internal combustion forklifts in the early stage, but it is more cost-effective to use electric forklifts for a long time later than internal combustion forklifts. After all, the cost of electricity is much lower than that of oil.
