Laser SLAM Navigation: High Precision and Quick Deployment

The FT1500 is equipped with advanced laser SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) technology. Through multi-line laser radar, it scans the operating environment in milliseconds, constructing a three-dimensional map with millimeter-level accuracy. The positioning error is controlled within ±10mm, which is about the width of an adult finger, ensuring precise operation. Unlike traditional forklifts that rely on reflective boards for navigation, this device uses environmental feature recognition technology, eliminating the need to install complex markers and effectively reducing deployment costs by 30%. The entire process from device startup to the completion of environment mapping, path planning, and operation can be completed in just 30 minutes, significantly shortening the automation upgrade cycle for enterprises and providing strong support for production continuity. 


Outstanding Performance: 1.5 Tons Load + 2.5 Meter Lift - A Standard for Medium to Large Warehouses

 As an industrial-grade intelligent handling device, the FT1500 boasts powerful load capacity, capable of stably handling 1.5 tons of standard palletized goods and stacking them accurately up to a height of 2.5 meters on storage shelves. It is widely applicable in various scenarios, such as automotive parts storage, e-commerce sorting centers, and pharmaceutical cold chains. The forklift supports both manual control and autonomous navigation modes. During heavy-load operations, vector control technology ensures smooth performance, while the autonomous mode features self-developed motion control algorithms for flexible steering. Its innovative compact design allows for a minimum turning radius of just 1.8 meters. Combined with the 360° omnidirectional rotation function, it can easily navigate through dense storage areas and narrow aisles, overcoming the space limitations of traditional forklifts.


Comprehensive Safety Protection: 360° Intelligent Obstacle Avoidance and Multi-Sensor Safety System

The FT1500 is equipped with a multi-tiered safety protection system, integrating 3D visual recognition systems, ultrasonic distance radar, infrared sensing arrays, and safety touch edge sensors to create a 360° environment perception network with no blind spots. When personnel enter the work area or obstacles block the path, the emergency braking system based on Rhino hardware can trigger a stop in 0.5 seconds to ensure operational safety. In cross-floor operation scenarios, the forklift seamlessly integrates with elevator control systems via industrial IoT protocols, achieving automatic elevator calling, door control, and floor switching, thereby creating a fully automated material handling process. The intelligent energy management system monitors the battery status in real-time. When the battery charge drops below 20%, the forklift automatically plans a return path to the charging area, recharges autonomously, and can work continuously for 4 hours with just 30 minutes of charging, ensuring 7×24 hour uninterrupted operation.


Diverse Applications: Core Carrier for Cross-Industry Intelligent Logistics

The FT1500 supports three operational modes: manual driving, automatic navigation, and remote map construction. It can also be customized based on the enterprise's business needs. Through an open API interface, the device can deeply integrate with WMS (Warehouse Management System) and MES (Manufacturing Execution System), enabling intelligent scheduling of order data and handling tasks to optimize warehouse operations. Currently, the FT1500 has been successfully applied in over 20 industries, including automotive manufacturing, electronics assembly, and cold chain logistics. For example, after introducing the FT1500 into a leading e-commerce intelligent warehouse, sorting efficiency increased by 40%, and labor costs were reduced by 60%, significantly enhancing warehouse operational competitiveness.


 In Summary:

The CHENYUE FT1500 Autonomous Forklift, with its leading laser SLAM navigation technology, high precision operation, comprehensive safety protection, and strong system compatibility, is accelerating the intelligent transformation of the manufacturing and logistics industries. It has become a benchmark device in the industrial logistics field for achieving unmanned material handling, injecting strong momentum into industrial upgrades.
