Multi-category small and medium-sized warehouses, BYD's multiple reach forklifts are used together

Analysis of job pain points in multi-category small and medium-sized warehouses

Multi-category small and medium-sized warehouses usually cover a variety of storage units such as spare parts, boxed goods, and palletized goods. At the same time, due to the size of the site, the operating space is relatively compact, which poses many challenges to warehousing and handling.

The storage requirements brought by the complexity of the category are diverse

The weight and size of different types of goods vary widely, from a few kilograms of spare parts to tons of boxed goods, which have different requirements for the carrying capacity and operation flexibility of handling equipment. If only a single type of forklift is used, it is difficult to adapt to all operation scenarios, and it is prone to inefficiency or equipment overload.

Work constraints due to limited space

The passage width of small and medium-sized warehouses is generally narrow, and some areas still have dense shelves and many corners. It is difficult for conventional handling equipment to pass smoothly, which not only affects the speed of operation, but also increases the risk of collision of goods and equipment.

Use Strategies of Multiple Reach Electric Forklifts

Combining the operation characteristics of multi-category small and medium-sized warehouses, through the rational matching of different types of reach electric forklifts, the advantages of equipment can be fully exploited to cover the needs of all scenarios.

Narrow channel dedicated reach forklift with heavy-duty reach forklift

For the operation of pallet cargo storage in the narrow aisle area of the warehouse, a narrow aisle dedicated forward forklift can be selected. Its compact body design can adapt to a narrow aisle of about 1.5 meters, and with the door frame forward function, it can efficiently complete the cargo storage of high-rise shelves. For the cross-regional handling of large-tonnage pallet cargo, it is matched with a heavy-duty forward forklift to meet the handling needs of 1-3 tons of goods and ensure the transportation stability of heavy goods.

Lightweight picking and moving forklift with general-purpose moving forklift

For the picking operation of spare parts and small boxes of goods, a lightweight picking forklift can be used, and its flexible handling performance is suitable for shuttling between shelves, which is convenient for staff to quickly pick goods. For the daily handling of conventional box-loaded and medium-weight pallet goods, with a general-purpose moving forklift, both flexibility and load-bearing capacity are taken into account, and it is suitable for most operation scenarios.

The practical benefits of the matching scheme

A reasonable combination of reach electric forklifts can enhance the operation of various types of small and medium-sized warehouses.

Improve space utilization

The use of special forklifts for narrow aisles can complete high-rise shelf operations without widening the warehouse aisle, effectively revitalizing the vertical space of the warehouse and increasing storage capacity in a limited space.

Adapt to multi-category job requirements

Different types of forklifts perform their respective duties, corresponding to scenarios such as heavy handling, narrow channel access, and lightweight picking, to ensure that all types of goods can be handled efficiently and avoid the limitations of a single device.

Reduce operation and maintenance costs

The accurate selection of equipment according to the needs of the operation can reduce the overload of the equipment and prolong the service life of the equipment. At the same time, the energy consumption of the electric forklift is low, and long-term use can reduce operating costs.
