On April 10, the 10th National Aerial Work Platform Rental Conference & Equipment Exhibition concluded successfully in Nanjing, Jiangsu. As a dedicated player in the electronic control system field for domestic aerial work platforms, Changsha Top-Auto Technology Co., Ltd. brought its full product lineup to the exhibition, engaging in in-depth exchanges with industry peers and customers from across the country to discuss the path of technological upgrading and service innovation in the AWP industry.
The company’s spare parts sales cover more than 12,000 SKUs, spanning over 20 accessory categories, with coverage of major spare parts exceeding 90%. This means that the replacement parts needed for the vast majority of common faults can be quickly matched within Top-Auto Technology’s system. Ek olarak, the company operates a professional repair center and conducts full-value-chain business for pre-owned aerial work platforms, covering equipment refurbishment, evaluation, and trading.
Diesel-to-Electric Conversion: Real Vehicle Demonstration
This is Top-Auto’s latest retrofit service: removing the diesel engine from a traditionally diesel-powered aerial work platform and replacing it with an electric motor, connecting directly to the vehicle’s original hydraulic system. There is no need to reconstruct the vehicle body structure, resulting in low retrofit costs, short turnaround times, and uncompromised performance.
Before the conversion, the Top-Auto team, referencing OEM whole-vehicle testing procedures, develops a detailed test plan for each machine, comprising more than 60 test items. These cover the performance indicators that customers care about most—such as boom movement smoothness, operating speed, travel speed, and gradeability—and a comprehensive functional test is conducted to form the vehicle acceptance standard.
After the conversion, a functional inspection is carried out strictly in accordance with the acceptance standards to ensure that the vehicle’s functions and performance remain consistent with the original machine. Simply put: it still drives like the same machine, but now it runs on electricity instead of burning diesel—green, energy-saving, and cost-efficient.
For rental companies, diesel-to-electric conversion means lower operating costs, more environmentally friendly equipment management, and a longer equipment lifecycle. At the exhibition, many rental business owners surrounded the real vehicle, inspecting it repeatedly and asking in detail about the conversion cycle, costs, and energy consumption comparisons. Several customers expressed their intention to retrofit on the spot.
The 10th National AWP Rental Conference built an efficient communication platform for the industry and reinforced Top-Auto Technology’s confidence in continuing to cultivate the aerial work platform sector. Gelecekte, the company will continue to focus on core electronic control system technologies, constantly enrich its product lines, improve spare parts coverage and service levels, and join hands with partners to drive China’s aerial work platform industry toward a safer, smarter, and more efficient future.
