Experts have different opinions on the future of the telescopic boom fork loader market in North America
From new products to the hot market, the remote operation equipment industry is ready to develop steadily in the coming year.
This is a question that customers have been asking for years. When will JLG enter the rotating equipment market?
JLG has launched three models of rotary telescopic boom fork loader to the American market
JLG answered this urgent question at the end of last year, when the company announced that it would launch three rotary telescopic boom cranes for the US market through a new partnership with Dieci, an Italian manufacturer. The company has produced rotary cranes for more than 20 years.
Rogerio dos Santos, vice president of telescopic boom engineering of JLG, said: "We spent a lot of time working with Dieci to really focus on the design of these machines and design them to look and feel like any other JLG machine. When we really entered the rotary telescopic boom market, our two award-winning brands combined with Dieci's good rotary business in Europe enabled us to develop products that meet the specific needs of the North American market."
Therefore, r1370, r1385 and r11100 rotary telescopic boom forklifts were born. The three new JLG models have a maximum lifting height of 67.3 to 97.1 feet and a maximum lifting capacity of 11000 to 13200 pounds, with a similar base configuration, although the r1370 and r1385 have four jibs and the r11100 has five jibs. All main boom parts, no matter what model, are driven by oil cylinder and chain to support higher elongation and greater lifting capacity.
"We really take advantage of the product design and engineering expertise of both companies. Our customers can expect the same product quality, parts, service and support level as JLG products." Santos said.
Hester: the world's first hydrogen fuel cell Empty Container Stacker will be stationed in Hamburg, Germany
Hester empty container stacker with diesel engine. At the beginning of next year, the world's first hydrogen powered Empty Container Stacker will be stationed in Hamburg Port, Germany.
Recently, in a non binding letter of intent signed with the logistics company (hhla) of Hamburg Port, Germany, Hester Yale group announced that it would deliver two empty container stackers powered by hydrogen fuel cells.
Heist, an American forklift manufacturer, is a subsidiary of heist Yale material handling company from Cleveland (Ohio). It will put the world's first hydrogen powered empty box forklift into practical application in early 2023. Its location is Hamburg, Germany, where the headquarters of two German forklift manufacturers yonghengli and still are located. In addition, a terminal tractor of Hester company is also hydrogen powered and will be transported to Hamburg Port as early as the end of this year. Both cars are powered by fuel cells from nuvera, a subsidiary of the Hester Yale group, which is also from the United States (billica, Massachusetts). Hydrogen comes from local sources: produced at hhla Hamburg green hydrogen center. Hhla said the new Hester equipment is a key component of the "clean port and logistics" program.
Georg B ? ttner, project leader of hhla Executive Committee, said: "the clean port and logistics program is a joint initiative of hhla and other European companies. The purpose of hydrogen handling and testing is the next generation of hydrogen handling equipment. ¡°
Hamburg Port has a clear goal of reducing emissions related to the purchase of H2 loading and unloading machinery. According to Georg B ? ttner, the results of the clean port and logistics plan will lay the foundation for further emission free, hydrogen powered handling equipment in the port.
Hydrogen fuel cell forklifts and tractors are intended to be used at the hhla container terminal toll gate (CTT), which will also be equipped with appropriate hydrogen infrastructure and connected to the future Hamburg hydrogen network. Then, hydrogen will power the 60 kW fuel cell on the forklift and a 45 kW fuel cell on the tractor. Many components of the two vehicles are the same: including drive motor, battery module, converter, hydrogen tank and control system.
Yonghengli released the first quarter financial report of fiscal year 2022
Order volume: 1.33 billion euros (+ 0.8%)
Revenue: € 1.06 billion (+ 10.7%)
EBIT: € 77.9 million (+ 8.0%)
EBIT margin: 7.3%
Net balance: € 95 million
The forecast for fy2022 remains unchanged
The business trend of yonghengli in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 is in line with expectations. Despite the tight supply chain and the bottleneck of material supply, the orders received, net sales and EBIT increased year-on-year. The war launched by Russia against Ukraine at the end of February brought a high degree of uncertainty to the European and global economy, which also brought uncertainty to the business trend of yonghengli. In this context, the forecast for 2022 remains unchanged.
In the first quarter, orders received increased slightly to 1.33 billion euros, while net sales rose 10.7% to 1.06 billion euros. The main driving force of sales growth is new business, leasing business and customer service. EBIT was € 77.9 million and was affected by a significant increase in material and logistics costs. EBIT margin reached 7.3%. As of March 31, 2022, the net credit balance was € 95 million due to the increase in inventory.
Dr. Lars brzoska, chairman of the Management Committee of yonghengli Co., Ltd.: "The fiscal year started as expected. In addition to the continued tight supply chain and large-scale increase in material and logistics costs, the Russian Ukrainian war also had a negative impact on the first quarter. Despite this challenging situation, we managed to increase the order volume, business volume and EBIT compared with the previous year. So far, we continue to experience good market demand."
"We have positioned our 2025 + strategy well and continue to pursue it with the aim of creating sustainable value for all our stakeholders. As part of our strategy, we have been implementing a large number of projects and measures, such as the construction of a new factory in Chomutov, Czech Republic, the recent establishment of the 41st yonghengli sales company in New Zealand, and demonstrated automation, digitization and innovation at the logimat internal logistics exhibition at the end of May Numerous innovations in the field of electrification. In this way, we are creating a successful foundation for further, profitable growth.

Discussion on high voltage lithium battery technology of new energy forklift
With the rapid development of the new energy forklift industry, it has attracted the attention of relevant departments and the market. Xiaobian asked industry people about the high-voltage lithium battery technology in the new energy forklift. Thank you for sharing. We sort it out as follows. The ancients said, "stones from other mountains can attack jade, and words from others can be good to me!" If there are different views, welcome to discuss and discuss together.
Dajia made the following analysis on the product characteristics of high-voltage lithium forklift and expressed their views:
1¡¢ High voltage lithium forklift compatible with automobile charging pile
From the technical point of view, the forklift charging pile is compatible with the car charging pile. Technically, it is not difficult to achieve. Theoretically, it can charge both the car and the forklift. However, in practical application, because the forklift belongs to non Road industrial vehicles, it is unrealistic to share the charging pile with the car on the road, there will also be competition for charging resources, and the electricity charge will be increased accordingly. At present, there are not many use cases.
2¡¢ High voltage brings 12 hour endurance
The endurance time of forklift mainly depends on the amount of electricity and the energy consumption level of forklift, which has little to do with voltage. Through the energy consumption test of high-voltage forklift on the market, according to VDI 2198 standard, the energy consumption of high-voltage lithium forklift is higher. In addition, the energy consumption also depends on the matching and adjustment of forklift dynamic force and hydraulic working part; The overall endurance time is also closely related to the actual application conditions.
3¡¢ Automobile grade voltage platform, automobile grade motor electronic control warranty (5 years)
At present, the cost of automotive voltage platform has not been reduced, which is about + 10 ~ 30% higher than that of low voltage. Automotive high-voltage motor and electronic control suppliers generally provide a five-year warranty. However, in the field of forklift, few manufacturers have promised a five-year warranty period. The reason is that the working conditions of forklift are more complex than that of automobile, and the habit and attention of personnel operation and maintenance are not as good as that of automobile industry.
4¡¢ Internal combustion vehicle drive axle and other components are adopted
At present, the 3-ton electric forklift has adopted the same drive axle as the internal combustion vehicle. The sharing of other main components such as gantry and bogie bridge between the internal combustion vehicle and the tram can achieve better supply coordination and bring more benefits to customers.
5¡¢ Performance surpasses that of internal combustion vehicles
The performance of the forklift depends on the motor you use and the matching of the drive. It is not directly related to the high voltage or low voltage. For example, the lifting speed and acceleration time can also be realized at low voltage. At present, from the performance data of the high-voltage forklift on the market, it does not completely surpass the internal combustion vehicle, such as the climbing ability and lifting speed.
6¡¢ Energy saving permanent magnet synchronous motor
In theory, the efficiency of permanent magnet synchronous motor will be higher and can bring some energy saving. As mentioned above, the energy consumption level of the whole vehicle also depends on many factors, such as the matching and adjustment of forklift power system, and it is possible to smooth the efficiency improvement brought by permanent magnet synchronous motor.
In terms of motor, theoretically, the cost of the same type of motor with different voltage has little difference; Due to the current rise in raw materials, the price of PMSM is expected to be 10% - 20% higher than that of AC motor; In the long run, if the price of raw materials falls, the price of PMSM with same energy is basically close to that of AC asynchronous motor.
In terms of electronic control, the cost of high-voltage electronic control is theoretically expected to be 20% higher than that of low-voltage, mainly due to the differences between internal key power components IGBT and MOSFET, as well as the differences of electronic components with different withstand voltage levels.
7¡¢ IP67 protection grade
The high-voltage forklift needs a higher protection level, which is a required item, not an additional item. In addition, the safety and insulation factors should be considered. The key parts of the low-voltage forklift have also achieved a higher protection level, but mainly for the requirements of working conditions.
8¡¢ High pressure fast charging for 1 hour
High voltage can realize the rapid filling of battery power. The two main components associated with this are charger and battery. At present, high voltage is compared with low voltage. With charger and battery, the cost of the overall scheme will be relatively high. In some customer working conditions with long working hours, there is a demand for fast charging. From the perspective of customers, fast charging in the future will better enhance the customer experience and bring greater attraction.
In addition, from the perspective of supply chain, so far, the application of low-voltage in forklift truck is mature compared with high-voltage, and still maintains certain advantages. However, in the future, with the development of automotive high voltage, the supply chain will become more and more mature. In a certain period, it will bring some spillover phenomenon and affect the application trend of forklift. In the future, the forklift industry may be a subdivided field of high-voltage lithium battery. At present, the main manufacturers in the market are making the layout of high-voltage lithium battery.
Finally, let's take a look at the significance of high voltage above 300V for forklifts: for forklifts below 3-3.5t, high voltage above 300V has not shown more advantages at present; For forklifts with more than 5 tons, because they have certain advantages in body space, performance, cost and customer working conditions, they will be more meaningful, but more research needs to be done on specific details.
As the old saying goes, "hearing is bright, believing is dark". These are the views of people in the industry. As an industry media, China fork.com welcomes you to put forward your views and discuss them together with different ideas and angles, so that people in the forklift industry can hear different voices.
Kaiao group held the annual general meeting of shareholders, and the new CEO rob Smith attended for the first time
Kaiao Group Co., Ltd. held the annual shareholders' meeting of the network to review the successful performance of fiscal year 2021
Dividend of € 1.5 per share (2021: € 0.41)
Sustainable development is firmly rooted in the group's strategy
Digitization and automation are still the future trend
Frankfurt on the Rhine, May 11, 2022:
Rob Smith, the new CEO of Kaiao Group Co., Ltd., attended the annual general meeting for the first time. At the meeting, he reviewed the quite successful fiscal year 2021 and the excellent performance of the group. In 2021, Kaiao group achieved basic earnings per share of 4.34 euros (2020: 1.81 euros), highlighting the excellent performance of the fiscal year. Investors will also share these achievements: the annual general meeting of shareholders voted and approved the proposal of the Executive Board of directors to pay a dividend of 1.5 euros per share, a significant increase over the previous year (0.41 euros per share), an increase of more than twice.
Sustainable development is an important part of enterprise strategy
Talking about the future development of Kaiao group, rob Smith emphasized the professional strength of Kaiao in the field of electric drive and battery technology: "we are one of the most important suppliers in the field of electric drive technology of internal logistics in the world. At present, nearly 90% of the new forklifts and storage technology equipment produced by Kaiao group have been powered by electricity." He also said that lithium ion battery technology and its development are the core of Kaiao's own research and development. Kaiao group and BMZ group jointly established KBS in karlstein on the Rhine in Germany two and a half years ago. At the end of April this year, a new production line for the production of 24 volt lithium-ion batteries was officially launched here, which will provide power for the storage technology and equipment produced by Kaiao group in the future. "This is a high-tech product produced by Kaiao and made in Germany!" Rob Smith added.
Caskat Kooi ? Intelligent solution of forward fork - reduce cargo damage and improve processing speed
KOOI ? Reachcontrol ¨C reduces damage during pallet movement.
In organizations that use several different sizes of pallets, such as the packaging, paper, beverage and furniture industries, a common problem is that it is difficult to find the optimal length of forklift forks - they are either too long or too short. If the fork is too long, it will protrude from the rear of the pallet, and when the fork is raised, it will be lifted together with the goods behind the pallet, which will not only damage the pallet or even the product, but also cause personal injury.
Meijer's material handling solution introduces Kooi forward fork control system (Kooi ? Reachcontrol), including the flowmeter system (basic unit 100x80x60mm) and the application program operating the system. The flowmeter can detect the amount of oil flowing through the front shift fork. Specially developed software that can be read using applications compatible with standard Android or IOS smartphones. The more extended Kooi forward fork version has the function of fixing the fork sleeve at a certain set length (at least 8 preset values).
Users can enter variables themselves and set specific names for each variable value. Because there is no need to modify the forward fork, the system can be installed on any forward fork.
If there is no automatic stop function, the system can be quickly installed and transmit information through Bluetooth signal.
The automatic stop system is mainly composed of a special valve body. In addition, a power option is also selected, so there is no need to wind the line on the gantry or modify the fork.
