Hand pallet stacker is a variety of wheeled haulers that handle loading, unloading, stacking, and short-distance transport of palletized goods. Manual lift truck has a simple structure, flexible operation, good micro-motion and high explosion-proof safety performance.
Hand pallet stacker is suitable for operation in narrow passages and limited spaces. It is an ideal equipment for loading and unloading pallets in elevated warehouses and workshops. Manual lift truck can be widely used in petroleum, chemical, pharmaceutical, textile, military, paint, pigment, coal and other industries, as well as ports, railways, freight yards, warehouses and other places containing explosive mixtures. Hand pallet stacker can be used to load, unload, stack and transport pallets in cabins, cars and containers.

First, the difference between manual lift truck and electric stacker
Hand pallet stacker and the electric stacker are superior in terms of functions and effects, and the electric stacker is much better than the manual lift truck. However, the hand pallet stacker can survive the era of the era, there must be its extraordinary, the killer of the stacker - the price. Therefore, when the user buys himself, he will squat between the manual lift truck and the electric stacker. It is true that functionality is one thing, but price is also an aspect that must be considered. So we compare the efficiency of hand pallet stackers with electric stackers to see which one you need.
1. Comparison between manual lift truck and electric stacker
Hand pallet stacker uses a manual hydraulic device, which is a big jack in the old saying.
Electric stackers mainly include: batteries, motors, hydraulic stations, drive wheels, counterweights, controllers, circuit boards, sensors and other devices. From the configuration, there is a lot more, and the function is also much stronger. Electric stacker can not only be electro-hydraulic lifted, but also electric drive to walk and turn, and the safety is much higher!
2. Manual lift truck speed and electric stacker lifting speed
Hand pallet stacker raises the speed by 1.6 meters, which requires about 100 feet, which means that the hydraulic pressure can rise by 1.5cm. According to the hydraulic calculation of 1.5s at a time, the speed is 1cm/s, and the time required to raise 1 meter is 100 seconds. The electric stacker has a lifting speed of 10cm/s. If it rises by 1 meter, it is 10 seconds. This is a test during an empty car operation. If the load is working, the manual lift truck needs more manpower and steam, and the speed will be slower! But the speed of the electric stacker is still the same speed. From this aspect of lifting, it can be seen that the work efficiency is quite different.
3. Hand pallet stacker and electric stacker travel drive
Manual lift truck uses manual movement. When the hand pallet stacker moves, the moving speed will not exceed 1m/s. If the load is moving, the speed should not exceed 0.8m/s, because the speed of people can't go so fast. The station-type all-electric stacker adopts the motor-driven whole vehicle to realize the movement, and the driving speed is generally between 3.5km/h-5.5km/h. If it is calculated according to 3.6km/h, there is also 1m/s. The speed, this speed is definitely much faster than the manual lift truck that manpower moves.
4. Actual working efficiency of hand pallet stacker and electric stacker
When the manual lift truck is manpowered, it is more laborious to move and lift.
5. Hand pallet stacker and electric stacker work continuity
Manual stacker is manpower, so there is not much limit on continuous working hours.The biggest limitation of hand pallet stacker is the problem of manpower. If it is a person operating a manual lft truck. The average load of the cargo is 100 times. If it is 30 times, it is 3,000 times. This workload is very large; and the hand pallet stacker is more laborious when pushing and moving. Therefore, the use of manual lift truck is not suitable for large workloads; it is also not suitable for places with high strength requirements, such as many places that need to be loaded and unloaded in time. The electric stacker has more than five times the working efficiency of the hand pallet stacker, and the operation is easy, and the operator has little labor intensity. The station-type electric stacker only needs to stand and drive, and the finger presses the button to control the lifting, which is very easy. Therefore, the manpower is basically unrestricted. The biggest limitation at present is the capacity of its battery. At present, the average working time of an ordinary all-electric stacker is about 3-6 hours, depending on the stacker with different specifications and different models! In general, the larger the battery capacity, the longer the battery life.
Second, the correct operation method of the manual lift truck.
1, Hand pallet stacker driving
Before starting the manual lift truck, check the working conditions of the brakes and pumping stations and ensure that the batteries of the hand pallet stacker are fully charged. Hold the handle of the manual lift truck with both hands, and force the hand pallet stacker to slowly move toward the working cargo. If you want to stop, you can use the brake or foot brake to make the manual lift truck park.
2, Hand pallet stacker loading and unloading goods
(1) Manual lift truck is kept perpendicular to the shelf with the fork low and carefully approached to the shelf and then inserted into the bottom of the pallet.
(2) Hand pallet stacker retracts the stacker and lets the fork move to the shipping tray.
(3) Manual lift truck raises the fork to the required height and slowly moves to the pallet to be unloaded, while ensuring that the fork is easy to enter the pallet and the cargo is in a safe position on the fork.
(4) Hand pallet stacker lifts the fork until the pallet is lifted from the shelf.
(5) Manual lift truck slowly retreats in the passage.
(6) Hand pallet stacker slowly lowers the cargo while ensuring that the fork does not touch the obstacle during the lowering process.
3, Manual lift truck stacking
(1) Hand pallet stackers need to keep the cargo low and carefully approach the shelf.
(2) Manual lift truck can lift the cargo above the shelf level.
(3) Hand pallet stacker moves slowly forward, and stops when the cargo is above the shelf. At this point, the manual lift truck lowers the pallet and notices that the fork does not exert force on the shelf under the cargo. Hand pallet stacker make sure the goods are in a safe place.
(4) Manual lift truck slowly retreats and ensures that the pallet is in a secure position.
(5) Hand pallet stacker can lower the fork to the position where the stacker can drive.
4. Safety facilities for manual lift trucks.
(1) Main switch of hand pallet stacker: main power switch.
(2) Foot brakes of manual lift trucks: reliable parking brakes.
(3) The restrictor valve of the hand pallet stacker: control the descending speed.
(4) Pressure limiting valve for manual lift truck: control load.
(5) Protective net for hand pallet stacker: protect the driver.
