BSLBATT Lithium Batteries

What innovations has BSLBATT Lithium unveiled recently and how do these benefit end-users?  

Mainly, the performance and functions of Lead-to-Lithium forklift products have been comprehensively improved:


Overall Improvement:


1. Abandon the scheme of lead-acid batteries to provide power. After the lithium batteries are combined, no matter the Cycle Life/Charging Performance/DOD Depth of Discharge/Maintenance, lithium battery has absolute advantages;


2.The professional forklift BMS adopts a passive balancing system. Many years of practical application have accumulated a large number of high-quality algorithms to ensure the consistency of battery operation. At the same time, the battery SOC, power, current, and temperature are accurately monitored;


3. The gas and electricity adopt a more stringent selection of automotive-grade. It can withstand the impact of 300A-500A in the extreme state. Ensure the stability of the entire system;


4. The module adopts a modular design and inherits the concept of automotive-grade modules. The design is more cautious, and both structural materials and thermal management have reached automotive-grade standards;


5. The cloud big data system collects the data of the forklift battery in real-time and optimizes the BMS algorithm online according to the forklift and battery status in different states. Better exerts the battery performance. At the same time, 360-degree monitoring without blind spots can also remind the terminal to find the forklift in the first time Failure, easy to repair.

How To Help The End-User?

1. Provide one-stop product service. From customization to mass production, we have a strong technical team and production team to complete product design and production. To ensure that each product reaches the end customer is reliable and stable;


2. Maintenance-Free/Charging Performance/Lifetime of Lithium Batteries is much better than that of lead-acid. The product experience of end-user will have a qualitative leap;


3. Provide comprehensive technical support and quick after-sales response;

What are the changing market demands in materials handling and how they are impacting your product offerings? 

Changes In Demand In The Power Exchange Market:


1. Clients are more and more aware of the advantages of lithium batteries, and previous lead-acid customers will also request to replace lithium batteries to try. Later product tracking customer feedback is also very good. At the same time, it helps customers reduce maintenance costs and makes the previous working environment cleaner and better;


2. Customized services require more and match the size of lead-acid batteries according to different brands of models. Because most customers are slowly aware of the benefits of lithium batteries, gradually entering the initial trial stage, and there are existing lead-acid batteries in the world. The forklift market is very large. Every day we receive inquiries and orders from various countries around the world, indicating that the market is performing and active and is also in the initial stage of the outbreak;


3. The real needs of actual application scenarios are becoming clearer and clearer. Customers hope that lithium battery power will have a long life, longer working hours, and meet the requirements of multiple shifts; Faster charging time, low-maintenance costs, and rigid requirements for improving the working environment;

Product Impact:

1.Since most customers have customized needs, in order to the product stability, reliability and versatility, we adopt the functional modular component design and disassemble a non-standard product into standard design modules based on functionality. The advantage of this is that the free combination of standardized modules can meet the needs of different customized customers; At the same time, standardized products can make the products produced by our factory more stable and reliable. Therefore, we launched modular products dedicated to forklifts;


2.Our products are distributed all over the world, and the use status and battery status of each forklift are different, so how we manage/maintain these products is a great challenge for us. Therefore, we launched a cloud management data platform, which can quickly view each recent battery status and health of a product. Also can predict in advance that customers need to be maintained; At the same time, these large amounts of battery data will also provide us with the most basic data for better product development;

What are the challenges involved in moving from one energy source to another – eg, charging stations, battery replacement, etc?

Challenges Of The Replacement Market:


1. There are too many lead-acid models and cabinet models for memory storage. The counterweight is also very messy, it is a great test for our lower-level supply chain/design/production;


2. In China, raw materials such as battery cells/metals fluctuate greatly, which indirectly affects the cost of our products;


3. Customer operating environment such as: charging equipment/charging station system matching and other tests;


4. Customers’ awareness of lithium battery needs to be improved, and different promotion and implantation of lithium battery knowledge allow customers to gradually realize the huge advantages of lithium battery;

What are the environmental challenges facing the new energy solutions – eg: sourcing raw materials, components, recycling, disposal, etc?

Environmental Challenges That New Energy Solutions Will Face:


1. Raw material procurement costs, labor costs, production costs, and a series of costs are rising. On the other hand, the selling price of products is constantly being suppressed; profit margins are shrinking. But our product philosophy is to make fine products for customers, and I believe we will also keep going;


2. Battery recycling and processing will be an arduous task in the next few years. After lithium batteries have slowly become the mainstream, how to dismantle used batteries and reuse useful materials in advance and degrade toxic and hazardous substances to meet the environmental protection requirements of various countries will be a challenge - A huge challenge.
