Order Picker

Full Electric Order Picker

New Type Self-Popelled Order Picking Machines

  • High-Strength Lightweight Design: Industrial aluminum construction reduces tare weight to ~33% (1/3) of equivalent steel cages, increasing net payload.
  • Gravity-Feed Retention: Shelves feature a 4° backward pitch to secure inventory during high-speed travel and prevent fall hazards.
  • Universal Mechanical Interface: Equipped with a replaceable solid oak block to ensure secure, vibration-dampened locking with standard order picker grippers.
  • Modular Configuration: 14-inch runner centers support adjustable 15-inch & 30-inch deep shelves for rapid planogram changes.

This Aluminum Quick-Change Platform transforms standard man-up lift trucks into high-efficiency order picking machines. Engineered for high-density distribution centers, the chassis is constructed from aerospace-grade aluminum, offering a structural weight that is nearly 1/3 that of traditional steel counterparts. This significant weight reduction directly translates to reduced hydraulic strain on the host vehicle and increased net cargo capacity. The system features a specialized solid oak gripper block within the fork pocket, providing a high-friction, secure lock interface compatible with major OEM order pickers. Designed for seamless integration, the platform matches the host deck height to create a zero-transition surface, optimizing workflow for split-case picking and inventory replenishment.

Performance

Optimized Strength-to-Weight Ratio & Payload Efficiency

Standard steel cages impose significant “dead weight” on order pickers, reducing the available capacity for merchandise. This platform utilizes a high-tensile aluminum alloy construction, reducing the attachment weight by approximately 66% (1/3 the weight of steel). For a standard Class II order picker, this weight saving allows for a proportional increase in product payload per lift cycle. The lightweight design also reduces energy consumption from the host machine’s hydraulic and drive motors, contributing to longer battery shift life and reduced component wear over 5+ year operational lifecycles.

Geometric Load Containment & Versatility

To address product loss during rapid lateral acceleration and braking, the shelving system is engineered with a precise 4° backward pitch. This gravity-feed geometry ensures that cartons and loose items naturally slide toward the containment backing, eliminating the need for complex secondary restraint straps. The vertical uprights feature runner slots spaced on 14-inch centers, allowing operators to reconfigure the shelving layout in minutes without tools. Whether utilizing 15-inch shelves for small parts or 30-inch shelves for bulkier items, the system adapts to dynamic SKU profiles instantly.

Mechanical Interface & Zero-Trip Ergonomics

Safety in vertical environments is non-negotiable. The platform connects to the host machine using a solid oak block insert within the fork pocket. Unlike metal-on-metal connections which can slip or fatigue under vibration, the oak block allows the order picker’s gripper mechanism to bite into the wood, creating a positive, non-slip lock. Furthermore, the platform base is engineered to align perfectly with standard order picker deck heights, eliminating trip hazards. Combined with anti-slip grip tape and smooth amplimesh side panels, the design mitigates operator strain and fall risks at extended working heights.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are order picking machines and how do they work?

Order picking machines are specialized material handling equipment used in warehouses to help operators pick items directly from storage racks. They use an electric lifting system to raise the operator platform to different heights, allowing safe and efficient order fulfillment. The operator controls lifting, movement, and positioning using an onboard control panel.

What types of order picking machines are available for warehouse use?

Common types of order picking machines include low-level order pickers, mid-level order pickers, and high-level order pickers. There are also walkie order pickers and ride-style models, each designed for different working heights, aisle widths, and warehouse operation needs.

How high can order picking machines lift operators for picking?

Order picking machines can typically lift operators from a few feet up to 30 feet or higher, depending on the model. Low-level models work at small heights, while high-level order pickers are built for tall warehouse racking systems.

What is the difference between an order picking machine and a standard forklift?

A standard forklift is mainly used to lift and transport full pallets. An order picking machine lifts the operator along with the platform to pick individual items from shelves. Order pickers focus on order fulfillment, while forklifts focus on pallet handling and stacking.

Do I need special training or a license to operate order picking machines?

Yes, you need specialized safety training to operate order picking machines. In many regions, including under OSHA standards, operators must receive formal instruction, hands-on practice, and evaluation. While requirements vary by location, proper training is always required for safe operation.
