Battery-powered forklift: Forklift motor description
I will explain about the motors of forklifts that are advancing in electrification. 【Battery-powered forklifts】 #Electric forklifts
There are two main types of power sources for forklifts: engine-powered forklifts that use an engine as the power source, and battery-powered forklifts that use a motor as the power source. Regarding the "motor" of battery-powered forklifts, I would like to explain it as simply and clearly as possible. The control methods for the "motor" of battery-powered forklifts include: DC motor control methods (brushed motors) and AC motor control methods (brushless motors). Recently, most battery-powered forklifts have begun to adopt AC motor control methods (alternating current). Benefits of brushless motors in battery-powered forklift motors: - Maintenance is easier because there are no brushes. (Achieving maintenance-free operation) - The number of relay switches is reduced, eliminating operational noise during travel. (Reduction of the traditional clicking sound) - The driving performance feeling is improved. (Smooth acceleration) - High efficiency of the motor can be achieved. And so on.
