In the daily operation of the manufacturing industry, many enterprises will encounter a concentrated outbreak of orders in stages, and they need to temporarily start the expansion plan to quickly increase the overall production capacity to complete the order delivery. Many plastic processing enterprises in the Xingtan area also often encounter such scenarios.
In this kind of temporary expansion scenario, the original configuration of forklifts and other material transfer equipment often has a capacity gap, unable to take into account the needs of raw material unloading, workshop transfer, finished product stacking, outbound delivery and other aspects of the operation at the same time. If the new forklift equipment is purchased directly, after the end of the order cycle, the excess equipment will fall into an idle state, not only occupying a lot of working capital, but also having to bear multiple costs such as equipment maintenance, annual review, storage, etc. The input-output ratio is not high.
In response to such pain points, BYD forklift short-term batch leasing is a very suitable solution, and the specific implementation can refer to several core points. First of all, it is necessary to map out the actual operation needs of the factory in advance. During the temporary expansion stage of the plastic factory, the operation scenarios involved are relatively scattered. The relevant person in charge can count the number of equipment gaps in different operation positions in advance, synchronously measure the width of the operation channel, the specifications of the commonly used pallets, and the average weight of the single handling materials. It can match the electric forklift products with the corresponding load. For the conventional plastic particle whole pallet transfer scenario, the use of a load-matching counterweight electric forklift can meet the demand. For the short-distance transfer needs of narrow workshop passages, it can be supplemented with small pallet trucks to ensure that the transfer efficiency of all operation links can keep up with the expansion rhythm.
Secondly, it is necessary to flexibly match the lease cycle. The agreement cycle of short-term batch leasing can fully fit the time node of temporary expansion, and the service duration can be agreed on a weekly or monthly basis. The commissioning of all leased vehicles can be completed 3 days before the start of the expansion plan. Simultaneously provide simple training on operation specifications and safety precautions to the existing operators in the factory to ensure that the vehicles can be put into use immediately after they are in place. After all orders are delivered and the temporary expansion plan is completed, the vehicle can be directly returned. There is no need to bear the costs related to various equipment in the subsequent idle stage, which greatly reduces the non-productive investment of temporary expansion.
Finally, to confirm the supporting service content, the batch leased BYD forklift will be equipped with exclusive maintenance docking personnel throughout the process, and regular door-to-door safety inspections will be carried out. If there is a problem with equipment failure during the operation, the maintenance personnel can quickly arrive at the scene to deal with it, and reduce the impact of the failure on the production rhythm as much as possible. At the same time, the leased models are all new energy electric models with compliance, no exhaust emissions, and fully meet the fire safety and environmental protection control requirements of the plastic production workshop, without additional compliance risks.
The overall investment threshold of this plan is low, which can quickly fill the gap in material transfer capacity during the temporary expansion stage, providing a practical reference for many manufacturing enterprises with similar needs.
