After seeing the benefits that Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) battery technology has when compared to traditional lead-acid batteries, Hangcha Group realized the material handling industry would be the perfect beneficiary for this technology. Lithium-ion technology would give material handling equipment the ability to run longer, more reliably, and require less maintenance. Hangcha Group worked closely with CATL to develop lithium-ion technology specifically for this industry. Hangcha then redesigned our material handling equipment around this technology. The result is a line of fast charging, long lasting, maintenance-free forklifts with the ability to run efficiently in multi-shift operations.
The Lithium-ion battery has a high energy density. When compared to an identical volume as a lead-acid battery, the Li-Ion battery contains twice as much energy. / Quick opportunity charging equals constant availability. / Stable voltage supply throughout the discharging process means that the truck will run longer on a single charge. / Li-Ion batteries maintain their performance level at temperatures below freezing making them ideal for use in cold areas.
The truck communicates with the battery controller to precisely control the use of the lithium-ion battery.
Higher energy density means that the battery can hold the store about of energy in a smaller space.
Intelligent battery management monitors every important battery function. / Higher user safety, thanks to an acid-free battery. / User friendly thanks to not having to change the battery. / The battery does not emit toxic gasses.
These batteries have twice the service life making them environmentally friendly. / The batteries also do not contain any acid making them environmentally friendly. / The Li-Ion batteries are substantially more efficient when charging and discharging which reduces energy costs and is environmentally friendly.
Because battery changes are not needed, the operator is not physically strained. / These batteries are maintenance-free meaning that the user doesn’t need to top off the water or check the battery’s acid levels. / The user doesn’t have to preform a pre-work check on the battery.
