In recent years, the hottest key word of industrial vehicle industry is undoubtedly "new energy", and it will continue to be hot. Since 2009, China has been the world's largest sales market in the industrial vehicle industry, with long-term internal combustion forklift as the main market. There is a large gap between related technologies of electric forklift and customer needs, as well as the world's major brands. With the development of new energy technology, the development trend of low-carbon economy has been launched in an all-round way. With the rapid development and scale of China's lithium battery industry, the cost of power lithium is showing a declining trend, making lithium battery become the preferred power source of new energy for industrial vehicles in recent years. With the increasingly severe energy situation and environmental protection pressure, as well as the opportunities brought by the development of new energy vehicles and the maturing of lithium battery technology, the application of lithium battery in the electric forklift industry has been developed rapidly. Many domestic lithium battery manufacturers and pack factories have poured into the industrial vehicle industry, which can provide solutions to the three core technologies of battery, electric control and motor Manufacturers are scarce. Beidou Aerospace Lithium Battery Co., Ltd. seizes this opportunity, aims at lithium battery solutions for industrial vehicles, and provides safe and reliable lithium battery solutions for forklift industry through continuous research and development of new technologies and products. On October 23, the morning of 2019 Asia international logistics technology and transportation system exhibition, China forklift network (www.chinaforklift. Com) made an exclusive interview with Zhao Yang, deputy general manager of Beidou aerospace vehicle (Beijing) Co., Ltd., on why Beidou Aerospace lithium battery entered the industrial vehicle industry, technical advantages, innovation points, future development direction, etc. When the word "Beidou" is mentioned, more people may think of Beidou satellite. Beidou Aerospace Satellite Application Technology Group Co., Ltd. (referred to as Beidou Aerospace Group) is a national high-tech enterprise based on Beidou and remote sensing satellite applications, involving five major fields of satellite applications, energy, electric vehicles, environmental protection technology and financial investment. It is understood that Beidou aerospace vehicle (Beijing) Co., Ltd. is a subsidiary company of Beidou Aerospace Group, whose business scope covers the national high-tech enterprise integrating the R & D, production and operation of new energy vehicles. Beidou Aerospace lithium battery is a new brand based on forklift lithium battery created by Beidou Aerospace Automobile Company. Since 2017, Beidou Aerospace lithium battery has researched and developed the special lithium iron phosphate battery for forklift; in 2018, the product entered the stage of adaptation experiment; in 2019, the product has gradually matured and officially entered the forklift supporting industry. Mr. Zhao said that Beidou Aerospace lithium battery takes building an automobile and parts advantage enterprise as its strategic development goal, aiming at the forklift industry, based on its mature power battery technology, to build an exclusive "Beidou Aerospace lithium battery", and develop modular and standardized forklift lithium battery, which can meet different customer needs. At present, the industry is lack of national standard and industry standard of lithium battery forklift, which leads to the lack of unified policy reference on technical parameters, technical indicators and safety standards of lithium battery application in forklift. According to Zhao, Beidou Aerospace lithium battery adopts automobile industry standards for R & D, production and certification. The lithium iron phosphate battery on display is a product developed by adopting automobile level standards, including automobile level core technologies: remote control technology, active equalization system, etc. Especially the active equalization system greatly improves the battery life and system. Beidou Aerospace lithium battery has made a lot of efforts in the active equalization system, and now it is in the leading position in the industry. In the past two years, Beidou Aerospace lithium battery mainly takes the management system and battery energy system of lithium battery as the technical breakthrough difficulty. In the field of lithium battery, the first step is to solve the management system. Beidou Aerospace lithium battery management system follows the standard requirements of vehicle specification level, and the SOC calculation accuracy is better than that of peers to reach the vehicle level. In addition, temperature control and routine control also performed well. To achieve safety, high energy density and good high and low temperature performance, power battery products need to have high consistency, followed by the matching of power management system (BMS). According to the characteristics of forklift industry, Beidou Aerospace lithium battery has developed a set of power management system for forklift. Through the remote data monitoring of Beidou cloud intelligent operation management, Beidou Golden Shield firewall, Beidou lightning battery, it can monitor and manage the lease, analyze and manage the large data, guarantee the safety of battery use, protect the battery and charge it rapidly. At the same time, Beidou Aerospace lithium battery not only has the battery technology of electric forklift, but also includes the core technologies such as electric motor and electric control. In Hunan Sandian factory, there are motor and controller assembly line, battery module, pack production line, vehicle controller production line, and all technical indicators have been authorized by the state. When talking about how to guarantee the product quality, Zhao stressed that the lithium battery cells used by Beidou Aerospace lithium battery are all from the top five domestic suppliers such as Tianjin Lishen and Yiwei lithium energy, which ensure the cell quality. In addition, the first full-automatic standard forklift lithium battery production line in China has been built for the assembly and production of forklift lithium battery packs. With advanced manufacturing level, according to aviation level standards, automobile level quality, multiple process assurance, 100% battery testing, to ensure product quality. At the same time, through the mature operation management platform and "Beidou cloud" intelligent management system, we provide customers with integrated forklift operation intelligent management solutions, and provide efficient, safe and reliable operation mode. At the same time, Beidou Aerospace lithium battery also fully combined with the market demand, based on the development trend of replacing lead-acid battery with lithium battery in forklift market, develops forklift lithium battery pack, and develops different specifications of battery pack for different types of forklift products, which has been applied in some brands of forklifts. It can be said that Beidou Aerospace lithium battery not only has the technical strength at the forefront of the industry, but also has the ability to meet the market application and product iteration. As a new recruit in the industry, Beidou Aerospace lithium battery is still in the wait-and-see stage. The first problem to be solved is to eliminate the concerns and requirements of the host plant for products. In the past year, Beidou Aerospace Lithium Battery Co., Ltd. has maintained in-depth exchanges with forklift host plants through participating in major domestic logistics exhibitions. Through in-depth cooperation with the main engine plant in the early stage, product upgrading and iteration are gradually carried out. In addition, in order to get the supporting approval of the main engine plant quickly, Beidou Aerospace lithium battery was first introduced into the market after trial use. General manager Zhao said that when entering the stage of forklift lithium battery market, the previous research found that forklift changed user habits when it switched from lead-acid battery to lithium battery. He thinks that the lithium battery of forklift truck is like the cell phone battery of a few years ago. It's one reason from carrying two removable batteries to non removable batteries. At present, Beidou Aerospace Lithium Battery Co., Ltd. provides trial and full range after-sales service guarantee through stationed service personnel in the field strategic partner company in the early stage, replacing its existing vehicles with lithium batteries, and carrying out targeted transformation in case of any problems. To cut into the market. In addition, research and development capacity, production and manufacturing level, and after-sales support capacity are also the hard strength of Beidou Aerospace lithium battery to enter the forklift lithium battery industry. General manager Zhao believes that forklift lithium battery still has a long way to go. In the next two or three years, deep cooperation between manufacturers and forklift host brands is needed, and investment in capital and R & D is increased, and lithium battery suppliers are expected to work together to spread the market. On the issue of the market, he stressed that if we do not fight for the price and seize the market with the price, we will eventually be eliminated by the market. We always shoulder the "Beidou" national brand, no matter the market and sales, we need to shoulder the responsibility and burden of "Beidou". In this era of rapid innovation and change, Beidou Aerospace lithium battery needs to be a determined tenacious person in the noise to achieve success. In terms of technology, Beidou Aerospace lithium battery has core technologies such as electric drive system, battery pack, battery management system and motor, which will also become a favorable support. Only with the firm step of innovation and the high resonance of the pace of the times, can Beidou Aerospace lithium battery walk on the road of transformation and upgrading of China's industrial vehicles.
