The mast and lift chains are key components that enable a forklift to perform its core functions. During every work shift and every lifting operation, they bear the full weight of the load. Chain wear can lead to breakage, insufficient lubrication of rollers can cause seizure, and neglected mast rails can result in binding. Once the mast fails, the load may fall, leading to equipment damage, personnel injuries, or even more serious consequences. The following four checks help ensure safe mast operation:

The global construction machinery industry is accelerating its transition toward electrification, but the pace varies significantly across different product lines. The latest data show that electric wheel loaders and electric excavators are developing along markedly different paths, prompting reflection on the timeline for the industry's green transition.

According to statistics from the China Construction Machinery Association, total excavator sales reached 152,320 units in the first half of 2026, up 26.4% year on year; loader sales increased by 26.7% to 82,052 units. Overall market performance remained strong, with excavator exports reaching a record high of 14,547 units in June, up 36.4% year on year. However, behind these impressive figures, a profound transformation is underway.
