Reach truck or electric stacker
Both stack pallets, but at very different heights, aisle widths and costs.
Comparison
| Criterion | Reach truck | Electric stacker |
|---|---|---|
| Typical height | Up to about 12 m in our range | Medium, depending on model |
| Aisle | Narrow | Somewhat wider |
| Operator position | Seated or standing | Walk-behind or platform |
| Investment | Higher | Lower |
When to choose each
If you store at height in narrow aisles and move many pallets a day, a reach truck makes the most of the space. If the height is medium and volume moderate, a stacker is simpler and cheaper.
