The development of forklift batteries can be divided into two categories: one is
forklift lithium-ion batteries, and the other is forklift lead-acid batteries. So is lithium-ion battery or lead-acid battery better for forklift batteries? I believe many friends have doubts about this. Let's briefly compare which one is better.
1. In terms of service cycle life, lithium-ion batteries for forklifts are better than lead-acid batteries for forklifts
I believe everyone understands that many people online say that the cycle life of lithium-ion batteries is 300 to 500 times, which is even shorter compared to lead-acid batteries. Why is this? In fact, when we refer to forklift lithium-ion batteries, we refer to iron phosphate lithium-ion batteries, rather than the commonly used lithium-ion batteries for 3C electronic products. The experimental service life of iron phosphate lithium-ion batteries is more than 2000 cycles, which is much longer than that of lead-acid batteries.
2. In terms of discharge performance, lithium-ion batteries for forklifts are better than lead-acid batteries for forklifts
In terms of discharge performance, on the one hand, forklift
lithium-ion batteries are much larger in terms of high current discharge than forklift batteries. They can continuously discharge at a rate of 35C, providing stronger power and lifting heavier and more goods; On the other hand, in terms of charging, forklift lithium-ion batteries provide a fast charging rate of 3C to 5C, which is much faster than forklift lead-acid batteries, saving a lot of charging time and greatly improving work time and efficiency.
