Electric Stacker
Powered travel, powered lift — one walk-behind machine for the whole pallet job · CPDS walkie stacker, 1–2 t, 48 V
The CPDS electric stacker powers both halves of the job: travel and lift run off a 48 V battery, so one operator walks the tiller and the machine does the rest. Rated capacity spans 1,000 to 2,000 kg with masts from 1,600 mm to 5,500 mm in single, two and three-stage builds. It covers the horizontal work of an electric pallet jack, then adds the mast that puts pallets on beams — which is why most small warehouses buy this walkie stacker instead of two separate machines. Built in Shandong, CE marked, 18-month warranty.

Key features
- 1,000–2,000 kg rated capacity at a 500 mm load center (CPDS series)
- Lift heights 1,600–5,500 mm; single, two or three-stage masts to suit the building
- 48 V system with lead-acid or lithium battery — chemistry chosen per duty cycle
- Travel governed to 5 km/h loaded, 6 km/h empty: walking pace by design
- 1,500 mm minimum turning radius for single-aisle work
- Tiller head with horn, lift/lower rockers and emergency reversing pad
- Solid tires and a 510 kg service weight keep shipping and floors easy
Where it works
What the CPDS walkie stacker actually does
One machine, two motions. The drive wheel moves the load at walking pace while the operator steers from the tiller; the lift circuit raises up to 2 t onto rack beams as high as 5,500 mm, mast depending. Because the operator walks, there is no seat, cab or suspension to pay for — the cost sits in the motor, mast and battery, where it belongs.
The control head carries the throttle, horn, lift and lower rockers and the reversing pad that stops and backs the machine if the operator is pinned. An emergency stop sits on the chassis. These are the photos in the gallery — production machines on our own floor, with the chain anchors and free-lift cylinder visible.
Electric pallet jack or electric stacker?
An electric pallet jack — also sold as an electric pallet truck — powers travel but lifts only a few centimeters: it moves pallets, it never stacks them. The walkie stacker does the same horizontal work and adds the mast. If your racking is single-deep and under 5.5 m, one CPDS usually replaces a powered pallet jack plus whatever was doing the lifting.
The reverse is also true and worth saying plainly: if you only ever travel — dock to staging, no racking — a low-lift machine is cheaper and lighter, and a stacker's mast is dead weight. Tell us the workflow and we will spec the cheaper machine when that is the right answer.
Battery choice, charging and upkeep
Lead-acid is the budget pick and tolerates a simple daily-charge routine; lithium costs more upfront but takes opportunity charging at breaks and skips watering entirely. Both come in 48 V packs on this chassis. For single-shift work, lead-acid usually wins on total cost; for double shifts, lithium earns its premium back in uptime.
Routine care is short: tire and fork checks, chain lubrication, and battery discipline. When throughput grows past walking pace, the same control logic carries over to our ride-on stacker with stand-on pedals; when most loads go above 4 m into narrow aisles, look at the CPDR reach truck instead.
Common questions
What is the difference between an electric pallet jack and an electric stacker?
An electric pallet jack powers travel but lifts a pallet only clear of the floor. An electric stacker adds a mast, so the same walk-behind machine also puts loads on racking — on the CPDS, up to 5,500 mm and 2,000 kg. Buy the jack for pure transport, the stacker when anything must be stacked.
How high can a walkie stacker lift a full pallet?
CPDS masts run from 1,600 to 5,500 mm. The honest figure is capacity at height, not maximum height: rated load falls as the mast extends, so a 2 t machine does not place 2 t at the top beam. Send your rack heights and load weights and we return the residual-capacity table.
Should I choose lead-acid or lithium for an electric pallet stacker?
Single shift with overnight charging: lead-acid, it is cheaper and proven. Two shifts, cold rooms or no battery-room discipline: lithium — opportunity charging at breaks, no watering, longer cycle life. Both fit the same 48 V chassis, so you can standardize either way across a fleet.
How fast does the CPDS electric walkie stacker travel?
5 km/h loaded and 6 km/h unloaded — deliberately held to a brisk walking pace, since the operator is on foot beside the tiller. If your runs are long enough that walking speed costs real time, that is the signal to move up to the stand-on ride-on stacker rather than chase a faster walkie.
What aisle width does an electric stacker need?
The CPDS turns within a 1,500 mm radius, but working aisle depends on your pallet size and approach angle, not the truck alone. As a rule the machine plus a 1,200 mm pallet wants roughly a 2.3–2.5 m aisle for comfortable right-angle stacking; send a rack layout and we confirm against the exact mast and fork build.
