ZLINK Folklift Automated Guided Vehicle

ZLINK Folklift overview

The ZLINK Folklift is a fork-type automated guided vehicle in the ZL Series, intended for warehouse logistics and production line material handling. Its published rated load is 1,500 kg. Unlike the family's under-carriage model, the Folklift is described specifically as a pallet-handling vehicle. The model name is Folklift, as used in the manufacturer's technical information.

This configuration is relevant to projects that need to move palletized materials between defined locations. ZLINK places the series in wet wipes manufacturing and other manufacturing environments. That application context describes the intended material flow; it does not establish that every pallet format, loading station or production process is compatible without an application review.

Design and pallet handling

Vehicle envelope and load interface

The vehicle measures 1,632 mm long, 863 mm wide and 1,986 mm high, with a published machine mass of 360 kg. Height deserves particular attention when reviewing doorways, overhead services and transfer areas. The fork-type layout should be assessed against the actual pallet and pickup arrangement rather than selected solely by its rated capacity.

The lifting dimension marked hc is 410 mm. A separate manufacturer dimension, h2-h3, is 200 mm. These are distinct entries, not interchangeable descriptions of usable lift travel. Before designing a station, request the corresponding dimensional drawing and confirm the reference points, required pickup height and loaded clearances.

Navigation and operating technology

The model-specific table identifies 2D/3D LSLAM navigation, differential drive and a touch screen HMI. Published positioning accuracy is ±10 mm and ±1°. These figures provide a basis for discussing station alignment, but should not be interpreted as a guarantee for every installed route, load condition or docking arrangement.

Navigation selection should be considered alongside the planned working area and transfer points. Request confirmation of the proposed navigation configuration and how it will be commissioned. The source does not establish particular business-system interfaces, so any connection to warehouse software, production controls or dispatch tools must be reviewed separately.

Published technical specifications

Turning radius and right-angle passing width describe different layout constraints. Neither should be replaced by vehicle width when checking a proposed route. Confirm the loaded envelope and clearance allowance for each turn before accepting a floor plan.

Applications and project selection

The Folklift's distinguishing application is pallet transport within the manufacturer's warehouse and production logistics scope. Candidate tasks could include moving palletized input materials toward production or transferring palletized output to a staging location. These are project possibilities to evaluate, not promises of a supplied workflow or an included station design.

For wet wipes operations, selection should begin with the physical load rather than the industry label. Record pallet dimensions, total transported mass, load height and how materials are presented. A nominal 1,500 kg capacity alone does not answer questions about load stability, fork engagement or compatibility with a particular packaging arrangement.

Integration and charging considerations

A route review should cover pickup and delivery locations, available turning space, floor conditions and interaction with people or other equipment. Review the risk assessment and required site procedures with the project team. No particular protective sensor package or certification is established by the available specification, so those details require explicit confirmation.

The listed battery is 48 V, 30 Ah, with automatic and manual charging. The manufacturer's family FAQ describes approximately 6–8 hours of operation and recharge times of up to 1.5–2 hours depending on model. Treat those as planning references rather than guaranteed results for a particular shift; request a charging plan matched to the proposed duty cycle.

Pricing and availability

No published retail price is established for this configuration. Final pricing depends on the model and agreed configuration and should be confirmed through a project quotation. Include pallet details, layout constraints and charging requirements so the quoted scope can be evaluated against the intended installation.

Availability is subject to confirmation. Do not infer supplier inventory or a delivery date from the specification listing. The quotation should identify the exact vehicle configuration, commissioning responsibilities and any separately agreed project equipment.

Frequently asked questions

What distinguishes Folklift from the other ZL models?

It is the family's fork-type model for pallet handling, with a published 1,500 kg rated load and a taller vehicle envelope than the other listed configurations.

Does its capacity confirm compatibility with any pallet?

No. Pallet geometry, fork engagement, load distribution and transfer heights still need to be checked for the intended application.

What navigation is specified?

The model table lists 2D/3D LSLAM, with positioning accuracy of ±10 mm and ±1°.

Which dimension should be used for a right-angle passage?

The published minimum right-angle passing width is 2,213 mm. The separate turning radius is 1,299 mm; they are not equivalent measurements.

How is purchasing scope established?

Request a configuration-based quotation and confirm project interfaces, availability and delivery terms before ordering.

Summary

The ZLINK Folklift combines a fork-type pallet-handling layout, 1,500 kg rated load and 48 V battery system. Selection should focus on pallet compatibility, the complete working envelope and a verified station arrangement, with configuration and commercial terms confirmed for the project.
