Is electric drive or hydraulic drive better for pallet trucks

In fact, pallet trucks are very common cargo transportation equipment in our work and life. Although they cannot match the power of forklifts, their small size is important. Through the joint action of wheels, forks, wheels, lifting devices and other components, they can quickly move goods. Currently, there are two types of driving devices for trucks: electric and hydraulic. Which driving method should be chosen for cargo handling?

Electric handling vehicles are driven by electricity and operated by a handle, which has the advantages of simple and flexible operation, rapid lifting of goods, high efficiency, noise reduction and pollution-free. Daily maintenance is also very simple, and one person can complete the entire process, which to some extent replaces manual pallet trucks. The only drawback is that the cost is relatively high.

Hydraulic handling vehicles need to pay close attention to the amount of hydraulic oil and prevent it from dripping onto the ground, which is not suitable for use in factories such as food and medicine that require high environmental cleanliness.

Therefore, the choice between electric drive and hydraulic drive for pallet trucks depends on both the usage environment and the procurement budget.
