INDUCTIVE FORKLIFT BATTERY AND BATTERYTRAY: etaTRAY
Forklift, lifting device and industrial truck inductive charger
etaTRAY is a Plug-and-Play forklift battery as a retrofit for your industrial truck. Available for all standard industrial truck battery trays with battery capacities of 100–240 Ah. No matter if you charge 12V, 24V or even 48V batteries. This is the One-4-All system.
Old industrial trucks still have a lot of life left in them. Instead of throwing them on the scrap heap, you can replace their standard lead-acid battery (PzS) trays with Li-Ion battery pack in just a few steps. This retrofitting solution combines inductive power transmission, intelligent wireless charging technology and lithium-ion batteries to make old vehicles fit for the future in material handling.
Our inductive batterytray with battery packs for forklifts, electric forklifts, lift trucks and tugger trains. Simply stopping your vehicle at the charging position will start your charging process. Thanks to the contact free design, the charging system may be installed where ever your process requires, i.e. loading and unloading stations. There are no trip hazards and charging will start within less than a second. For optimized charging of lithium batteries a CAN-interface to communicate with your vehicle components is part of the system. At the end no forklift battery charging station is even more needed, because its possible to use in opportunity charging manually.
Contactless forklift battery charger without cable
The patented charging technology from Wiferion consists of a stationary transmitter unit with wallbox and charging pad as well as receiving electronics, which is installed in battery tray. If a vehicle, i.e. electric forklift, drives on or next to the charging station, the charging process begins in less than a second. So, there is no need for an additional battery charger anymore. It does not matter from which direction the charging station is approached. With optimized lithium-ion battery packs is etaTRAY the last battery you have to switch and never need an additional battery charger again.
An integrated CAN interface transmits data on the battery status and energy level to the fleet management. etaTRAY, etaLINK 3000 and the etaLINK 12000 system, is compatible with all available battery systems so it doesn’t matter if STILL, Jungheinrich, Linde or any other industrial truck producer.
- Wireless charging saves time
- Higher safety without cables or the need of connectors
- Batterystations are almost completely eliminated
- Productivity increases due to higher vehicle availability
- No peak loads during charging thanks to In-Process Charging
- No battery acid anymore and much higher battery life
