Walkie Stacker Types, Application Advantages

Types Of Walkie Stacker

• Standard Walkie Stacker
• Ride on Walkie Stacker
• Walkie Straddle Stacker
• Walkie Reach Stacker
• Counter Balance Walkie Stacker

Standard Walkie Stacker

• Standard walkie stackers make use of legs that
  sit below the forks to assign load weight. This
  also facilitates them to lift and manage two
  pallets at the same time, which makes them
  perfect for applications that need both stacking
  of pallets and transportation. As compared to the
  other types of walkie stackers, standard walkie
  stacker provides the smallest turning circle.
  They are specifically made for mid-level racking
  applications.

4
Ride on Walkie Stacker

• They have a platform and special controls to
  facilitate operators to ride on the walkie
  stacker. To operate a ride on walkie stackers,
  the driver needs a forklift license whereas walk
  behind units does not need any license. Minimum
  lifting heights commence from 2000mm and can
  extend up to 6110mm.

5
Walkie Straddle Stacker

• Walkie straddle stackers are the most popular
  type of walkie stacker to be seen here, in
  Australia. To allocate load weight, they make use
  of straddle legs. They are usually used for low
  to mid-level chosen racking applications like
  customer zone racking areas, small warehouses and
  storerooms. Minimum lifting heights commence from
  3300mm and can extend up to 5000mm.

6
Walkie Reach Stacker

• Walkie Reach Stacker equipped with a pantographic
  scissor mast. That means the mast is able to
  manoeuvre loads forward, away from the stackers
  body. They are most frequently used in
  applications such as loading trucks, utility
  vehicles and trailers. Generally used for general
  mid-level racking applications. Minimum lifting
  heights commence from 2000mm and can extend up to
  6460mm.

7
Counter Balance Walkie Stacker

• Counter balance walkie stackers use counter
  balance weight to allocate loads. counter balance
  walkie stackers have the longest total length,
  which necessitates a bigger turning circle when
  compared to other types of stackers. The
  counter-balance walkie stacker has a different
  type of lifting mast and their minimum lifting
  heights commence from 2000mm and can extend up to
  6000mm.

8
Manual Walkie Stackers

• Manual walkie stackers are not recommended for
  handling pallets in racking as they have very
  restricted lifting heights and operate very
  slowly. Thus, they are only suggested for general
  lifting with very low volume of load.

Walkie Stackers Major Advantages

• One of the major advantages is it does not
  release smokes or exhaust pollution and makes no
  noise, which makes them perfect for indoor
  material handling.
• Thanks to their smaller size, operators have
  better visibility when handling loads.
• Walkie reach stackers are perfect for handling
  pallets in storerooms and in specialised
  warehousing sections like customer assigned
  storage spaces.

10

• They are highly manoeuvrable so they are able to
  work in compact spaces and can aid in expanding
  warehouse capacity.
• When compared to Diesel and LPG/Petrol forklifts,
  electric-powered equipment has lower operating
  costs on an ongoing basis.
• Unless walkie stackers are a ride on, operators
  do not need a forklift license to operate.
  Nevertheless, operators should be aware of safety
  practices and all the controls as well as acquire
  permission from their company to operate it.
• They generate lesser carbon emissions because
  they require lower energy.
