Fuel Efficiency Insights for KION Group Forklifts
KION Group forklifts, including Linde, STILL, and Baoli, are known for balancing power and efficiency in industrial operations. Fuel consumption depends on engine type, load, and operating conditions.
How to Maximize Forklift Fuel Efficiency:
- Regular Maintenance: Ensure timely servicing to avoid fuel wastage.
- Load Optimization: Avoid unnecessary overloading to reduce fuel burn.
- Operator Training: Skilled driving minimizes abrupt acceleration and braking.
- Use Alternative Fuels: LPG and CNG models can reduce costs and emissions.
Formulas Used:
- Fuel Consumption = Distance ÷ Mileage
- Total Cost = Fuel Used × Fuel Price
- CO₂ Emissions = Fuel Used × Emission Factor
Emission Factors: Petrol = 2.31 kg/l, Diesel = 2.68 kg/l, CNG = 2.10 kg/l, LPG = 1.51 kg/l
