Light-duty pallet forks refer to a type of pallet fork with a relatively light load capacity, also known as small pallet forks or lightweight pallet forks. Commonly referred to as small telescopic pallet forks, small telescopic forks, or small transfer forks, they encompass various types or styles, but most are plate-type pallet forks [also known as small plate forks], such as: traditional rack and chain combination transmission structure plate-type pallet forks, synchronous belt transmission structure plate-type pallet forks, and high-precision pure gear transmission structure plate-type pallet forks, etc. They all adopt a three-section telescopic structure, consisting of one fixed fork body and two movable [or telescopic] fork bodies, combined with guide rollers, rolling bearings, gears and racks, sprockets and chains, guide sliders, limit switches [positioning switches], proximity switches [mid-position switches], torque limiters, motors, reducers, drivers, encoders, etc., to form a complete transfer mechanism. They are often used in conjunction with stackers or lifting mechanisms, enabling easy transfer of materials from one side to another, and are widely used in various intensive three-dimensional warehouses and intelligent storage systems!
The rack and chain combination transmission structure pallet fork is a widely used type of pallet fork. Its transmission performance is excellent, and maintenance is convenient. However, because the chain may stretch after prolonged use, the operating accuracy may have minor deviations, with a repeat positioning accuracy of approximately ±3mm. Therefore, it is only suitable for general intelligent storage systems where operating accuracy requirements are not very high. In contrast, the pure gear transmission structure, although more complex in process, offers very high operating accuracy, with a repeat positioning accuracy of up to ±0.5mm, making it a high-precision transfer pallet fork commonly used in industrial automation production lines. The synchronous belt transmission structure is a pallet fork with a relatively simple structure and excellent transmission performance. However, due to the limited load-bearing capacity of synchronous belts, the load should not be too heavy, as excessive load may cause belt slippage and uneven operation!
        Light and small pallet forks are widely used in various industries, so the operating environments also vary, such as: high-temperature environments in high-temperature furnace operations, low-temperature environments in cold storage operations, fully enclosed dust-free environments [class 10,000 clean environments, class 100 clean environments], and normal temperature three-dimensional warehouses for ordinary material storage, etc. Different operating environments require different fork body materials, such as: high-strength carbon steel materials, waterproof, rust-proof, corrosion-resistant, high and low temperature resistant stainless steel materials, high-strength and lightweight aluminum alloy materials, etc. Different operating environments use different types of fork body materials!
Light and small telescopic pallet forks also come in many styles, which can adopt narrow body and wide load surface design, wide body and wide load surface design, or narrow body and narrow load surface design. With diverse design styles and reasonable layouts, they feature small size, light self-weight, low full-load deflection, fast travel speed, and stable operation, making them the preferred pallet fork for light material transfer. They are widely used in light three-dimensional warehouses and light intelligent storage systems!
