When it comes to 24/7 operation scenarios including large warehouses, distribution centers and heavy-load logistics hubs, multi-shift electric forklift fleets have become the core support to maintain stable daily operation. Unreasonable arrangement of team rostering and charging rotation will easily lead to unexpected operation gaps, sudden power shortage in the middle of peak tasks, unnecessary wear of forklift batteries and equipment, and extra unplanned operation cost.
For team rostering arrangement, operation managers can first make a full statistics of the task volume of each shift in consecutive operation weeks, mark the peak period of goods handling to allocate corresponding number of operators reasonably. It is recommended to set up a flexible backup team mechanism to respond to sudden temporary task demands, arrange regular rotation for different operators to avoid long-time continuous operation that may cause safety risks, and record the operation habit of each staff to match them with suitable forklift models for different task scenarios.
For charging rotation management, it is suggested to set a unified remaining power warning threshold for all forklift units in the fleet, arrange the vehicles that reach the warning value to take turns to complete supplementary charging in the non-peak interval of corresponding shifts, which can avoid the situation that a large number of devices are waiting for charging at the same time and reduce the load pressure of the on-site power supply system. Operation teams can also make a regular rotation charging plan for all units to complete balanced maintenance charging, which can effectively extend the overall service life of the battery pack and reduce the occurrence of sudden power failure during operation.
