Against the backdrop of fast growing e-commerce business, most distribution centers are facing increasing pressure of high-frequency short-distance material handling tasks, especially during peak order seasons with surging incoming and outgoing parcels. Stand-on electric pallet trucks have become one of the core handling equipment deployed in these sites, as they fit well with the dense channel layout and frequent transfer demands across different functional zones including receiving area, temporary storage zone, picking zone and dispatching zone. Lots of frontline operation staff and management teams from e-commerce distribution sites have shared their real, unfiltered using experience of BYD stand-on electric pallet truck after months of continuous running.

For regular daily operation, most surveyed sites run these equipment for no less than 8 hours per working day, with single transfer load ranging from 1.5 ton to 2 ton. The unit is designed with ergonomic control handle and shock-absorbing standing platform, frontline operators note that their physical fatigue level after 4 hours of continuous operation is at a relatively pleasant level compared to older generation handling tools. The flexible turning structure allows the truck to move smoothly in narrow access of 2.8 meters wide between dense racking systems, and can also complete the docking operation with loading and unloading platforms stably without shaking.

In terms of stability and maintenance performance, the statistics collected from 3 months of normal operation period show that the average availability rate of the equipment maintains at a satisfying level, the fully charged battery can support the whole peak shift operation without midway power supplementation. Routine work only includes simple exterior cleaning and regular check on wiring connectors, no extra complicated maintenance procedures are required, which largely reduces the daily workload of on-site maintenance team. No sudden fault that blocks normal operation progress has been recorded during the surveyed period.

Site operation managers also mention that the actual performance of the BYD stand-on electric pallet truck can well meet the high-intensity operation demands of e-commerce distribution scenarios. Even during the big promotion peak with doubled daily parcel throughput, these units can stably take over the incremental handling tasks to support the site to complete delivery targets smoothly. Teams that have subsequent logistics capacity expansion plans say they will take this series of equipment as a key reference in their future procurement evaluation.
