The maximum climbing slope refers to the maximum slope angle that a vehicle can surmount when fully loaded or nearly fully loaded. This indicator is a crucial parameter for gauging the power performance of vehicles. The maximum climbing slope is typically expressed as a percentage or an angle. Specifically, the percentage represents the ratio of the slope that the vehicle can climb to the horizontal distance, while the angle indicates the angle between the slope and the horizontal plane. The calculation method for the maximum climbing slope is expressed as the percentage of the angle value of the slope (expressed in degrees) or the tangent value of the height difference between the starting and ending points of the slope and its horizontal distance.

The maximum climbing slope of the marking machine is usually 15 degrees. This data has been mentioned in multiple marking machine models, such as the HW convex oscillation marking machine, the HW self-propelled hot melt marking machine, and the LXD manual push two-component shaking and scraping machine, all of which indicate a maximum climbing slope of 15°.
In addition, some marking machines have slightly different maximum climbing degrees. For instance, some marking machines can reach a maximum climbing slope of 60°, while others can reach 18°. These data highlight the differences in climbing ability among different models of marking machines, providing customers with more options.

The factors affecting the maximum climbing slope are as follows:
① Engine power is one of the key factors influencing climbing slope. When climbing, the marking machine needs to overcome the resistance of its own gravity and the slope. Therefore, the low-speed torque of the engine is extremely important. The greater the torque, the stronger the stability of the marking machine when climbing hills.
② Tire grip also plays a vital role. Good grip can help the vehicle maintain stability on slopes and prevent slipping. If the tire grip is insufficient, even if the engine torque is sufficient, the vehicle will slip and be unable to climb hills smoothly.
③ Vehicle structural design, including approach angle and departure angle, is also an important factor affecting climbing ability. A smaller angle may cause the bottom of the marking machine to rub against the ground when climbing, affecting the driving force. Appropriate approach and departure angles can ensure the smooth passage of the marking machine when climbing hills.
