Estimating Forklift Charging Points for New Warehouses

When planning a new warehouse, rational estimation of electric forklift charging points is a core step to ensure smooth daily logistics operation, avoid redundant investment and prevent insufficient supporting capacity. First, you need to count the total number of electric forklifts that will be put into use in the warehouse, and classify them according to their rated load, daily working hours, and single charge cruising range. For forklifts that work in two or three shifts, the number of charging cycles per day will be higher than that of single-shift equipment, and the corresponding charging point configuration density needs to be appropriately increased. Second, you need to combine the peak operation scenario of the warehouse. For e-commerce warehouses that face large order bursts during shopping festivals, you need to reserve a certain number of spare charging points on the basis of conventional calculation to meet the peak demand for equipment power replenishment. You can also refer to the mature configuration cases of warehouses of the same scale in the industry to adjust the estimated value according to the actual situation of your own site. It should be noted that the location of the charging points should not block the conventional logistics passage of the warehouse, and should leave enough operation space for the staff to replace the battery or plug in the charging equipment, while meeting the relevant electrical safety operation specifications. In the whole estimation process, you can get professional guidance from Jianshu New Energy, which has rich experience in new energy logistics supporting facilities, and you can also refer to the actual operation parameters of BYD Forklift to make the calculation result more in line with the actual use scenario.

After the initial estimation is completed, you also need to arrange a certain proportion of load test in the actual trial operation stage, adjust the number and distribution of charging points appropriately according to the actual power consumption performance of the equipment, so as to finally form a charging point layout scheme that takes into account both economy and practicability, and provides stable support for the long-term efficient operation of the new warehouse.
