Electric counterbalanced stacker with compact design and 100kg lifting capacity

100kg Mini Power Counterbalanced Stacker

Legless Cantilever Design: Removing straddle legs allows the 100kg (220 lbs) load to be positioned flush against CNC machines and conveyors.
Precision Electric Lift: Features a 24V DC hydraulic system for smooth, non-manual lifting up to 1500mm (59 in).
Compact Kinetic Footprint: Optimized chassis geometry enables operation in tight aisles where standard forklifts cannot fit.
Simplified Operator Interface: Intuitive controls reduce training requirements, minimizing operator error and handling risks.

Designed for high-precision material handling in space-constrained environments, this Counterbalanced Stacker serves as a critical bridge between manual lifting and heavy-duty forklift operations. Unlike traditional stackers that require base legs to extend under the load, this unit utilizes a calculated rear counterweight system to balance a 100kg (220 lbs) payload. This engineering choice allows for zero ground-level interference, making it the ideal solution for loading machinery, workbenches, or solid-base pallets.

Built on a modified electric work positioner platform, it combines a lightweight chassis with a robust DC lifting motor. The result is a low-maintenance, energy-efficient tool that enhances shop floor safety by eliminating manual lifting strain while ensuring seamless maneuverability in narrow zones.

Performance

Obstruction-Free Machine Loading

For mechanical engineers and facility managers, the primary limitation of standard stackers is the front straddle legs, which prevent close access to machinery with under-clearance obstructions. This counterbalanced stacker eliminates that constraint. By shifting the center of gravity rearward, the unit allows the forks to cantilever beyond the front wheels. This enables the operator to drive the unit directly up to a lathe, mill, or conveyor belt and deposit the 100kg (220 lbs) load with zero offset, significantly improving process efficiency for die changes or part staging.

Inherent Safety & Controlled Kinetics

While heavy forklifts pose collision risks due to high mass and speed, this mini stacker is engineered for controlled, low-speed environments. The electric drive system is calibrated for precision rather than velocity, reducing the kinetic energy involved in movement. For the warehouse manager, this means a drastically lower risk profile for inexperienced operators. The manual push/electric lift configuration ensures that travel speed is limited to walking pace, while the hydraulic system prevents shock-loading during the descent, protecting both the operator and fragile payloads.

Low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)

From a procurement perspective, this unit offers a superior ROI compared to full-sized forklifts for light-duty tasks. The simplified 24V electrical architecture reduces the component count, minimizing potential failure points. Unlike internal combustion engines or complex AC traction systems, the DC lifting motor and sealed battery pack require negligible maintenance. There are no hydraulic transmission fluids to change and no complex traction controllers to calibrate, resulting in a device that delivers consistent uptime with minimal operational overhead.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a counter balance stacker?

A counterbalance stacker is an electric material handling machine designed with a heavy counterweight at the rear to balance loads at the front. It has no supporting legs, allowing it to work directly up to racks or in tight spaces. It combines good lifting height with strong stability for medium-duty pallet stacking and transport.

What makes a forklift counterbalanced? Why is it called a counterbalance?

A forklift is counterbalanced when it uses a heavy weight built into the rear of the machine to offset the load carried on the front forks. This weight creates balance and prevents tipping.

It is called a counterbalance forklift because the rear weight counters (balances) the front load, allowing the forklift to lift heavy loads safely without needing extra support legs.
