An electric stacker, also known as an electric pallet stacker, is a type of material handling equipment used to move and stack pallets in warehouses, factories, and other industrial settings. It is powered by an electric motor and is designed to lift and move pallets vertically and horizontally, making it easier to load and unload goods.


Electric stackers are typically smaller and more maneuverable than traditional forklifts, making them ideal for use in tight spaces or narrow aisles. They are also less expensive and require less maintenance than traditional forklifts.

Electric stackers come in different sizes and lifting capacities, and some models are designed to handle specialized loads, such as drum handling or roll handling. They can also be equipped with various attachments, such as side-shifters or clamp attachments, to handle different types of loads.

Electric stackers are generally considered safe to operate, provided that the operator is properly trained and follows all safety procedures. However, like any piece of heavy equipment, they can pose a risk of injury or damage if not used correctly.
