BYD forklift paper industry storage and handling solution: adapt to heavy-duty and dusty working conditions, help green cost reduction and upgrade

2026-07-01

The paper industry is an important basic industry of the national economy. From raw material loading and unloading, production line feeding and conveying to finished product palletizing and shipment, the carrying capacity, continuous operation stability and environmental suitability of handling equipment directly affect production efficiency and enterprise operating costs. Affected by the material characteristics and production mode of the industry, paper mills generally have the characteristics of heavy operating load, long handling distance, and a lot of open-air dust. The shortcomings of traditional internal combustion forklifts in environmental compliance and cost control are increasingly prominent. In response to the operation characteristics and upgrade needs of the paper industry, BYD forklifts rely on lithium iron phosphate technology accumulation to launch large-tonnage heavy-duty lithium battery handling solutions, which help enterprises control operating costs and improve the working environment of the factory while ensuring the operation capacity of heavy working conditions.

First, the core characteristics of the paper industry's handling conditions

The warehousing and handling scene in the paper industry has distinct characteristics of heavy working conditions, mainly presenting six major characteristics.

First, the work load is heavy. The load of the core handling scene of the raw material warehouse, production line and finished product warehouse is mostly concentrated in the 3.5-5-ton range, and the handling of auxiliary materials is mostly 2-3 tons, which requires high heavy-duty capacity and structural strength of the equipment.

The second is that the handling distance is long. In-plant raw material transfer, workshop feeding and other moving lines generally exceed 1000 meters, and some can reach more than 2000 meters. There are clear requirements for the driving life and power continuity of the equipment.

The third is the long operation time. The industry generally adopts the three-shift operation mode, and the average daily working time of forklifts can reach more than 18 hours, which requires high equipment reliability and battery life.

Fourth, open-air operations account for a high proportion. Raw material loading, feeding and some finished product handling are mostly open-air operations, and equipment needs to be adapted to complex outdoor site conditions.

Fifth, the dust and paper scrap environment is prominent. Production scenes with waste paper as raw materials have more paper scraps and dust, which have higher requirements for dust protection of equipment and durability of components.

Sixth, the demand for special attachments is strong. The handling of finished paper rolls, soft bags and other materials needs to be matched with exclusive attachments such as paper roll clips and soft bag clips, and the requirements for the expansion and adaptation of the equipment are clear.

Second, the application limitations of traditional internal combustion forklifts

The current paper industry handling equipment is dominated by internal combustion forklifts, which are gradually exposed to various shortcomings in long-term heavy duty operations.

The first is the high cost of energy consumption. According to the calculation of the 3-ton internal combustion forklift working 18 hours a day, the monthly fuel cost of a single unit is relatively high, and the long-term operating expenditure pressure is greater.

Secondly, the pressure of environmental protection is prominent. The exhaust emissions of internal combustion forklifts contain a variety of harmful substances, which not only affect the health of operators in open-air and semi-closed scenarios, but also face increasingly strict environmental protection regulatory requirements; the hot and dry environment caused by operating noise and exhaust will also reduce the working experience of front-line personnel.

The third is the high maintenance cost. The internal combustion forklift has a complex structure, the engine needs regular maintenance, the core component replacement cost is high, and the risk of failure under heavy working conditions is relatively higher, which will increase the maintenance investment and production stop risk of the enterprise.

III. BYD forklift paper industry adaptation solutions

Combining the working conditions and existing pain points of the paper industry, BYD forklifts use 3.0T-5.0T counterbalanced forklifts, pinch trucks, and large-tonnage tractors as their core products, and build adaptation solutions from four dimensions: power performance, cost control, scene adaptation, and service guarantee.

In terms of power and cost, all models are equipped with large-capacity lithium iron phosphate batteries. The 3.5T model can support 8-10 hours of continuous operation on a single charge, and the 5.0T model can last up to 10-12 hours. With a high-current charging cabinet, employees can quickly replenish energy during rest breaks to meet the needs of three-shift continuous operation. From the perspective of operating costs, based on the calculation of 3.5T models working 18 hours a day, the monthly electricity cost of a single unit is much lower than the fuel expenditure of a diesel forklift of the same tonnage. By comprehensively calculating energy consumption, maintenance and other costs on a five-year cycle, a single device can effectively reduce long-term operating costs. The vehicle is equipped with a high-power motor and a brand drive axle, and its driving speed, lifting speed, and climbing performance can be compared to the internal combustion forklift of the same tonnage, adapting to the needs of long-distance and heavy-duty handling.

At the scene adaptation level, in response to the complex environment of the paper industry, the vehicle adopts a reinforced door frame and body design, and a dust-proof protective structure is added to key parts such as motors and hydraulic components; it is equipped with an anti-drop top frame to effectively protect the safety of operators and adapt to the palletizing operation scene of raw material waste paper. At the same time, it can customize a variety of professional attachments such as paper roll clips, carton clips, and soft bag clips to meet the handling needs of different material forms; the vehicle is equipped with multiple safety designs such as slope protection, overload protection, low cylinder buffering, and turning speed limit. It can be equipped with fully enclosed cab, warning lights, and other humanized configurations, taking into account operational safety and operation experience.

At the level of service guarantee, BYD forklift provides a 5-year quality assurance cycle for batteries, reducing the maintenance concerns of enterprises for long-term use of vehicles; establishes a full-link service system covering pre-sale, in-sale and after-sale, supporting hierarchical response mechanisms and stepped professional training, and supports sales, financial leasing, operating leasing and other cooperation models to adapt to the procurement planning of different enterprises.

IV. Industry landing practice

At present, BYD forklifts have served many paper companies such as Nine Dragons Paper, Chenming Group, Vinda, Sun Paper, etc., covering core scenarios such as raw material warehouses, pulp board warehouses, finished product warehouses, and production lines. The equipment is equipped with a variety of attachments such as flat forks, paper roll clamps, and soft bag clamps. The stable heavy-load performance and dust-proof and durable characteristics have been recognized by customers. In addition to the paper industry, related large-tonnage models have also been applied in many industries such as building materials and logistics, adapting to the heavy-load handling needs of different fields.

With the continuous advancement of green transformation and lean management in the manufacturing industry, the electrification of in-plant logistics has become an important direction for papermaking enterprises to upgrade. Relying on its own lithium battery technology advantages and experience in adapting to heavy working conditions, BYD forklifts continue to polish the exclusive handling solutions of the papermaking industry. While ensuring operational efficiency and operational reliability, it helps enterprises reduce operating costs and meet environmental compliance requirements, providing reliable equipment support for the logistics upgrade of the papermaking industry.
