An electric pallet stacker is driven by an electric engine and is designed to lift and stack the palletized goods on the racks. The main functions of the pallet stacker are to move goods, lift/lower them to the required height and stack them in rows. Thanks to the sturdy mast powered by an electric motor, the pallet stackers can handle loads on high racks, allowing to expand the warehouse space.
The electric pallet stackers can have load capacities from 1.2 to 1.6 tons and lift heights of up to 4.6 meters.
The pallet stackers are powered by rechargeable lead-acid or lithium-ion batteries of various capacities. The average battery charge is enough for one 8-hour shift, after which the battery needs to be recharged.
There are two types of electric pallet stackers. The warehouse operator either moves the pallet stacker with the load manually using the tiller or stands on the forklift’s fixed or folding platform moving with it.
The electric pallet stackers are maneuverable and can work in narrow aisles. They require a minimum turning space and are able to operate with loads at height and across the warehouse.
An electric pallet stacker is a type of floor warehouse equipment with a lifting mast and forks, designed for lifting and stacking goods on pallets. This equipment is essential when working with loads in conditions of limited space between racks is required. Fully electric pallet stackers are entirely powered by electric motors for both lifting and movement. The pallet stackers significantly simplify and speed up the process of pallet handling.
To choose the appropriate electric pallet stacker, you need to consider your production or warehouse requirements, operating environment, and budget.
By considering such factors as: load capacity, lift height, operating conditions, battery capacity and charging time, safety features, easy and affordable maintenance, you can make the right decision to improve your material handling operations.
Electric pallet stackers can usually lift loads to heights of 4.6 meters. The type of mast (single, duplex or triplex) has a significant impact on the maximum lifting height. Triplex masts provide the highest lifting capacity.
Keep in mind that at higher lifting heights the maximum load capacity is reduced due to stability and safety considerations.
The typical travel speed of standard electric pallet stackers is between 4 and 6 kilometers per hour. This speed allows operators to move pallets quickly through the warehouse.
The lifting speed of electric pallet stackers usually up to 0.2 meters per second. This speed ensures efficient stacking and removal of pallets, increasing overall productivity.
The next factors as load weight, battery charge, floor condition, and the technical specifications of the model can influence both the lifting and travel speed of the electric pallet stacker.
