As a professional practitioner dedicated to new energy material handling equipment, Jianshu New Energy has accumulated rich practical experience in equipment performance verification and operation specification summary. A standard forklift road test is one of the most critical links to confirm the comprehensive performance of the vehicle before formal delivery and daily use, and it is also a necessary measure to avoid potential safety hazards in subsequent operations.
Before starting the formal road test, the operator should first complete a series of static inspection work, to avoid accidental damage to the vehicle or personal injury caused by hidden dangers before the test. You need to check the appearance of the vehicle to confirm that there is no obvious damage to the body, the tire pressure is kept within the specified reasonable range, the power system connection state is normal, the remaining power meets the requirement of supporting the whole test process, and all the operation parts including the joystick, steering wheel and pedal can respond flexibly. The test site should choose a closed and flat area without irrelevant personnel and obstacles, and set up obvious warning signs in the surrounding area. If the test items involve slope operation, you should also confirm that the slope of the selected site meets the specification requirements.
The first core module of the formal road test is the dynamic driving test. The operator drives the forklift at different speed levels to complete acceleration, uniform speed driving and deceleration operation on the preset route, to check whether the power output is smooth, whether there is abnormal stutter or noise during the driving process, and whether the steering response is accurate and in line with the operation intention. It is also necessary to test the driving state of the vehicle on slightly uneven road surfaces and small slope sections, to confirm that the vehicle will not lose stability under normal road conditions.
The second module is the load matching test. After placing the load that meets the rated load requirement of the vehicle, the operator carries out the same driving operation as the no-load state, and tests the lifting and descending operation of the gantry under the load state, to confirm that the power performance of the vehicle under working load can meet the actual operation demand.
The third module is the special safety performance test. Test the braking distance of the vehicle at different driving speeds, confirm that the emergency braking function can make the vehicle stop stably within the specified distance without obvious sideslip or offset, check whether the driving warning light and prompt sound can be triggered normally during operation, and verify the effectiveness of the slope parking function to ensure that there is no slipping risk after parking on the slope with rated load.
After all the test items are completed, the test personnel need to sort out all the test records, check the temperature of the core components such as the power system and the motor, confirm that there is no abnormal overheating phenomenon. Any abnormal state found in the test process shall be rectified and re-tested in time, and the forklift can only be put into formal use after all indexes meet the relevant specification requirements. Jianshu New Energy implements a standardized full-process road test mechanism for each new energy forklift that leaves the factory, to create a reliable and safe use experience for every user.
