7 Reasons to Use Lithium-ion Batteries in Electric Forklifts
Less maintenance, lower costs, environmental sustainability, and overall worker satisfaction are a few key benefits of using next-generation lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in forklifts.
Why Are Lithium-ion Batteries Best for Forklifts?
Lithium-ion batteries are a game-changer for warehouses and distribution centers, thanks to their easy charging process. Unlike lead-acid batteries that need to be swapped out, lithium-ion batteries allow for opportunity charging. Opportunity charging allows employees to simply plug in the battery while they're on lunch or taking a break, allowing it to charge up until they begin work again.
High-throughput operations often see the greatest return on investment with lithium-ion batteries, but their benefits extend beyond just cost savings. As this technology continues to evolve, more and more companies across various industries are taking advantage of these advanced batteries.
Benefits of Using a Lithium-ion Forklift Battery
Here are the 7 biggest reasons for your company to explore using lithium-ion batteries:
1. Lower Energy Bills
Lithium-ion forklift batteries are more energy-efficient and charge faster than lead-acid batteries, helping you save both time and money.
2. Longer Equipment Life
Lithium-ion batteries typically last two to four times longer than lead-acid batteries, ensuring your forklifts can keep up with demanding workdays.
3. Reduced Downtime
With lithium-ion batteries, there's no need for battery swaps. They can be opportunity-charged during operator breaks, keeping your forklifts running longer.
4. Lower Labor Costs
Unlike lead-acid batteries, lithium-ion batteries require no traditional maintenance like watering or equalizing, reducing your labor expenses.
5. Increased Productivity
Operators benefit from longer run-times and consistent performance throughout the battery’s charge with lithium-ion-powered forklifts.
6. Environmentally Friendly
Lithium-ion batteries produce no emissions, and their extended lifespan means fewer batteries need disposal, making them a greener choice.
7. More Space for Your Business
Reclaim the space used for charging rooms and put it to better use, like additional storage, with the compact needs of lithium-ion battery charging.
Lithium-ion Batteries vs. Lead-Acid Batteries
When comparing lithium-ion and lead-acid batteries for forklifts, several key differences emerge:
Lithium-ion Batteries:
○ Maintenance-free operation
○ Faster charging times
○ Opportunity charging, eliminating the need for battery swaps
○ Longer lifespan
○ Higher upfront cost but greater long-term savings
○ Improved efficiency
Lead-Acid Batteries:
○ Lower initial cost
○ Widely recyclable
○ Requires regular maintenance (watering, equalizing)
Lithium-ion batteries may cost more initially, but their efficiency and low maintenance make them a smart long-term investment.
