400KG Semi-electric Stacker

400kg Electric Platfrom Stacker with 1500mm 1700mm Platform

  • Dual-Mode Load Interface: Features a removable chrome-plated platform allowing conversion between a flat table and adjustable forks for open-bottom skids.
  • Ergonomic Power Lift: Integrated 12V/0.8kW DC hydraulic motor eliminates manual pumping, lifting loads to 1700mm (66.9 in) in under 15 seconds.
  • Low Rolling Resistance: A lightweight 110kg (242 lbs) service weight combined with low-friction nylon castors ensures minimal breakaway force for manual propulsion.
  • High-Availability Power: Includes a maintenance-free sealed battery and onboard charger, ensuring continuous readiness for multi-shift intermittent use.
The Electric platform stacker (400kg Series) is a semi-electric work positioner designed to bridge the gap between manual lifting and heavy-duty forklift operations. Engineered for manufacturing cells, light-duty warehousing, and retail backrooms, this unit focuses on neutralizing the risk of Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) associated with repetitive lifting.
 
The system utilizes a hybrid drive architecture: manual horizontal propulsion for precise positioning and electric hydraulic actuation for vertical lifting. With a rated capacity of 400kg (882 lbs), it is optimized for handling dies, motors, cartons, and small skids. The compact chassis design allows for operation in aisles as narrow as 800mm (31.5 in), while the robust hydraulic system ensures stable lifting up to 1500mm (59 in) or 1700mm (66.9 in) depending on the mast configuration. This unit is a critical asset for increasing throughput while reducing operator fatigue in high-repetition environments.

Performance

Adaptable Lifting Geometry (Platform & Forks)

The core versatility of this stacker lies in its interchangeable load interface. The unit is shipped with a removable steel platform plate, typically measuring 650×550mm (25.6×21.7 in), creating a stable table for non-palletized goods. By detaching the platform, operators expose dual adjustable fork tines. These tines can be laterally adjusted to suit various skid widths, allowing for direct engagement with open-bottom pallets or wire mesh containers. This dual-design eliminates the need for purchasing separate lift tables and stackers for mixed-load facilities.

Simplified Hydraulic & Electrical Architecture

To maximize uptime and reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), the mechanical structure prioritizes simplicity. The lift mechanism is powered by a 12V DC motor coupled to a high-pressure gear pump, replacing the complex linkages found in manual pump-trucks. The energy source is a sealed, maintenance-free 12V battery, supported by an integrated charger that plugs into standard single-phase outlets. This configuration removes the need for watered battery maintenance or external charging stations, making it ideal for facilities without dedicated battery rooms.

Optimized Power-to-Weight Ratio

Unlike fully propelled stackers which often exceed 500kg (1100 lbs) in dead weight, this semi-electric unit features a gross vehicle weight of approximately 110kg (242 lbs). This significant weight reduction is achieved through a high-tensile steel mast design that maintains rigidity without excessive bulk. The reduced mass allows a single operator to maneuver the unit with minimal physical exertion. Stability during the lifting cycle is enforced by rear swivel castors equipped with mechanical foot brakes, anchoring the unit firmly to the floor during loading and unloading operations.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does semi-electric stacker work?

A semi-electric stacker uses an electric motor and battery to power the lifting function, so the operator does not need manual pumping. The machine is pushed or pulled by hand for horizontal movement. To lift, the operator uses a control button to activate the electric hydraulic system. To lower, a release valve or control is used. This design reduces physical effort while remaining simple and cost-effective.

Do you need training to use a semi-electric stacker?

Yes, proper training is required to use a semi-electric stacker. Even though it is not a full forklift, it still involves lifting heavy loads and moving equipment. Training covers load limits, safe operation, pre-use inspection, and hazard avoidance to prevent accidents, injuries, and equipment damage. Many safety standards also require formal instruction before use.
