Based on customer feedback and industry trends, the future R&D direction of Chison-branded mobile scissor lifts will be planned across the following four key dimensions, balancing practicality, cost-effectiveness, and sustainable upgradability:
1. Smart Function Upgrades
Automatic Leveling & Obstacle Avoidance
- Utilizes LiDAR or ultrasonic sensors to automatically adjust leg height on uneven ground, preventing tilt risks.
- Dynamic obstacle avoidance (e.g., auto-pause upon detecting obstacles) reduces collisions caused by operational errors.
Remote Monitoring & Alerts
- Connects to IoT platforms for real-time status tracking (hydraulic pressure, motor temperature, etc.), enabling early fault warnings.
- Customers can review usage logs and receive maintenance alerts via a mobile app, reducing unexpected repair costs.
Voice/Gesture Control
- Streamlines operations, especially in noisy workshop environments, minimizing reliance on physical buttons.
2. Enhanced Safety
Dual Redundancy Protection
- Mechanical anti-drop locks added to hydraulic systems ensure position stability even if hydraulics fail.
- Dynamic load calculation upgrades overload protection (adjusts weight thresholds based on lifting angles).
Environment Adaptability
- Optional explosion-proof motor versions for specialized scenarios like chemical plants.
3. Cost Optimization
Modular Upgradable Design
- Core components (e.g., hydraulic pumps, control modules) feature standardized interfaces, allowing partial upgrades instead of full replacements.
- Offers a “basic → premium” upgrade path (e.g., retrofitting smart systems later).
Energy Efficiency & Low Maintenance
- Variable-frequency motors reduce standby power; optional solar-assisted charging (ideal for outdoor use).
- Long-life lubrication components minimize maintenance frequency and labor costs.
4. Ergonomics & Usability
Lightweight & Rapid Deployment
- High-strength aluminum alloy frames cut weight by 30% while maintaining stability, enabling single-person mobility.
- Foldable legs/platforms reduce setup/storage time (target: under 30 seconds).
Visual Operation Assistance
- AR guidance (via headsets or tablets) helps novices perform complex tasks.
- Self-diagnostic interfaces display error codes and solutions directly.
Customer Value Highlights
- Short-term gains: Improved safety reduces insurance claims; smart features cut training time.
- Long-term gains: Modular design extends equipment lifespan, enabling phased upgrade investments.
- Competitive edge: Customizable kits for niche scenarios (e.g., power maintenance).
These innovations address customer pain points like “lack of scenario-specific kits” and “fast training needs,” while upgradability lowers long-term costs and boosts market competitiveness.
