The traditional electric forklift steering system uses mechanical steering or hydraulic power steering. The disadvantages of mechanical steering are: the control force is large, and the operator is easy to fatigue; the disadvantage of hydraulic power steering is the waste of energy. As operators have higher and higher requirements for operating comfort, integrated operation has become a development trend.

The mast descending adopts load potential energy recovery technology to realize stepless speed regulation of mast descending and save 5% energy. The principle of load potential energy recovery is: when the mast is lowered, the hydraulic pump becomes a hydraulic motor, and the electric motor becomes a generator, which converts the potential energy of the load into electrical energy to charge the battery to save energy. In recent years, with the development of forklift industrialization, the average annual growth rate of forklift sales in China has been over 30%, far exceeding the growth rate of the national economy. Therefore, China has become one of the most active countries in the global forklift market and has received global attention.
