Abstract :
This paper presents a drive system for a 2.5 ton electric fork lift using induction motors. In this system, DC motors used in conventional electric fork lifts were replaced with induction motors which are cheap, robustness, and controllable at various speeds. The high performance drive system for the induction motor was developed, and applied to a 2.5 ton electric fork lift and conducted an experiment to confirm its applicability and utility.
