How to select lubricating grease for electric forklift?

When we talked about lubricants for electric forklift, we mentioned gear oil and hydraulic oil in detail. Another common lubricant used on electric forklifts is grease. On electric forklifts, the lubricating grease is mainly used for the pin shaft parts of the transmission system, driving system, steering system and other relative movements, usually including calcium based grease, calcium sodium based grease, lithium based grease and industrial vaseline. We usually use calcium based grease and lithium based grease. Now, the electric forklift manufacturer will tell you how to choose the lubricating grease for electric forklift.

When selecting the lubricating grease for electric forklift, the performance and consistency grade of the lubricating grease shall be mainly considered. The commonly used consistency grades are Grade 2 and Grade 3. The greater the load is, the higher the consistency grade of the grease needs to be selected. Under the condition of meeting the use requirements, try to use low consistency grease, which can reduce power consumption. How to choose between calcium based grease and lithium based grease? Let's take a look at their advantages and disadvantages. Calcium based grease has better water resistance, is easy to adhere to metal surfaces, and has better stability, and is applicable to the temperature range of - 10 ° C to - 65 ° C. Its disadvantage is poor heat resistance. If it exceeds 100 ° C, it will lose its consistency. It is not applicable under heavy load and high temperature. Lithium based grease has good water resistance and stability, and is not easy to be oxidized. It is applicable to the temperature range from - 60 ° C to 120 ° C. Its disadvantage is that the price is relatively high. Therefore, the electric forklift manufacturer tells you that in general, calcium based grease is used less and less, and lithium based grease is used more and more widely.

What should be paid attention to when using grease for electric forklift? We must add lubricating grease regularly and quantitatively according to the requirements of the manual of the electric forklift and the specified brand. It shall be noted that the lubricating grease of different brands shall not be mixed. During the use and storage of lubricating grease, keep it clean, avoid the intrusion of foreign substance and moisture, and minimize the contact between lubricating grease and air. When replacing the lubricating grease, the bearing shall be cleaned and kept dry. The electric forklift manufacturer reminds everyone not to use grease when the electric forklift is fully loaded, because it will affect the braking efficiency as the temperature rises and cause waste.

The above is how to select grease for electric forklift and the precautions when using grease. The electric forklift manufacturer told us that lubricants are essential for electric forklifts. The use of lubricants can not only improve work efficiency, but also avoid many unnecessary troubles. When using lubricants, be sure to follow the requirements, otherwise it will only cause reaction.

Many leaders attribute poor company performance and employee laziness to a lack of investment in working time. Rules and regulations, rewards and punishments are often used to force employees to devote more working time. It seems that if an employee sits in front of the computer for an hour after get off work every day, performance will increase by 10%. In fact, for companies, achieving higher efficiency and enhancing the growth space of employees are the most important. It’s just that the effect of changes brought about by the increase in time is limited. Because people have a limited amount of time they can concentrate on work a day. and so, Let all employees get what they want, go hand in hand, Jointly complete the company’s strategic goals, and at the same time realize the personal growth and optimization of employees, This

I believe all friends who are ready to buy forklifts know that forklift  is also divided into many types. The common one is internal combustion forklift, and electric forklift that has emerged in recent years. However, when we browse the flagship store and official website of the forklift manufacturer, we will find that the forklift is also divided into many different types, such as gradall forklift, counterbalance forklift, reach forklift, etc. This makes many friends confused and do not know how to choose. Next, the forklift manufacturer  will explain the types of forklifts. There are many ways to classify   forklift . The common classification method is to classify them according to power source, transmission mode, application, walking mode and structural form. Among them, our most common method is to classify according to the power source. According to the classification of power sources, forklift can be divided into three categories: internal combustion forklifts, electric forklif

When we buy an electric pallet jack , we must clearly understand its structure and function, because we can judge whether it is easy to operate according to its basic structure and function, and learn how to use and operate it. Moreover, no matter what electric forklift  brand  is, if the electric forklift breaks down in the future, we can know exactly where the problem is. So, what are the basic functions of the electric pallet jack? The pallet jack manufacturer will tell you about it. First of all, let's talk about the shock absorption system of the moving wheel of the electric pallet jack . The pressure of the driving wheel changes with the weight of the load. The damping system of the driving wheel can automatically reduce the vibration amplitude according to the weight of the goods and automatically adjust the stability of the pallet jack. Especially when the electric pallet jack is in a harsh environment, the effect is more significant. No matter what electric forklift  brand
