Electric Pallet Stackers & Pedestrian Stackers — Full Power Drive & Lift
Sumachay’s fully electric pallet stackers and pedestrian stackers deliver powered drive and powered lift in a single machine — ideal for high-frequency stacking in busy Canadian warehouses and distribution centres. These electric stackers eliminate manual pushing, reduce operator fatigue, and handle demanding multi-shift workloads with lithium-ion battery systems and lift heights up to 3.5 metres.
Electric Stacker Buying Guide
Capacity and Lift Height Selection
Electric pallet stackers range from 1,000 kg to 2,000 kg capacity with lift heights from 2.5 m to 3.5 m. Match lift height to your racking — if you stack two pallets high on standard racking, 2.5 m is sufficient. For three-high stacking or mezzanine loading, choose a 3.5 m model. Capacity decreases at maximum lift height on all stackers, so confirm your load weight at the height you actually need, not just ground-level rated capacity.
Full-Electric vs Semi-Electric Stackers
Full-electric stackers power both the drive wheels and the lift mechanism — the operator controls everything from the handle without pushing. Semi-electric stackers only power the lift; you push them manually between locations. For short distances and occasional stacking (under 10 cycles per shift), a semi-electric stacker saves on upfront cost. For frequent stacking, longer travel distances, or multi-shift use, a full-electric stacker reduces operator fatigue and increases daily throughput.
Aisle Width and Floor Requirements
Straddle-leg stackers need aisles of 2.0–2.5 m minimum, depending on the model and load size. Measure your narrowest working aisle before ordering. All electric stackers require smooth, level indoor floors — sealed or polished concrete is ideal. Avoid rough concrete, expansion joints wider than 10 mm, and floors with standing water. If your facility has ramps, confirm the grade is under 5% for safe loaded operation.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a full-electric stacker different from a semi-electric?
Full-electric stackers power both the lift mechanism and the drive wheels the operator controls everything from the handle without pushing. Semi-electric stackers only power the lift; you push them manually. Full-electric is better for frequent use, longer distances, and reducing operator fatigue.
What capacity and lift height options do you offer in electric stackers?
Our electric stackers range from 1,000 kg to 2,000 kg capacity with lift heights from 2.5 m to 3.5 m. The SST15 (1,500 kg, 3.5 m lift) is our most popular model. Match lift height to your racking and capacity to your heaviest typical pallet.
Are electric stackers suitable for narrow aisles?
Yes. Our straddle-leg electric stackers fit aisles as narrow as 2.0–2.5 m depending on the model. They’re designed for indoor warehouse use on smooth concrete. For very narrow aisles under 2.0 m, contact us to confirm fitment with your specific layout.
How long does the battery last and how do I charge it?
Lithium-ion batteries provide 4–6 hours of mixed use per charge. Full charge takes 4–6 hours via the built-in charger — just plug into a standard outlet. Opportunity charging during breaks is safe and extends daily runtime without dedicated battery rooms.
What are the shipping options for electric stackers to Canadian addresses?
Electric stackers ship crated via freight carrier Canada-wide. Most in-stock models dispatch within 2–5 business days. Toronto-area pickup is available. Freight quotes are provided at checkout or upon request. Some Sumachay Plus models qualify for free Canada-wide shipping.
What warranty coverage comes with electric stackers?
Standard electric stackers include a 12-month warranty on defects in materials and workmanship. Plus models include an 18-month warranty with priority support queue. We stock batteries, drive motors, control boards, and hydraulic parts. Technical support is available for troubleshooting.
How much does an electric pallet stacker cost in Canada?
Electric pallet stackers are quote-only, so pricing is matched to the configuration you need. Cost depends on capacity (1,000–2,000 kg), lift height (2.5–3.5 m), mast type, and options such as side-shift or a spare battery. Request a quote at /pages/request-a-quote and we'll send a firm price in Canadian dollars — inquiries before 1 PM Toronto time get a same-day reply by 5 PM.
Can I buy an electric stacker online, or do I need a quote?
Electric stackers are sold by quote rather than direct online checkout, so we can confirm the right capacity, lift height, and freight for your site. Submit the quick form at /pages/request-a-quote — you'll get an instant email confirmation, and a specialist replies the same business day (by 5 PM Toronto for requests before 1 PM). Pallet jacks, by contrast, can be purchased directly online.
What is the difference between an electric pallet stacker and a forklift?
A pedestrian pallet stacker is walked behind or beside by the operator, runs on lithium-ion power, and is built for indoor stacking up to about 3.5 m — lighter, quieter, and lower-cost than a forklift. A counterbalance forklift is a ride-on truck for heavier loads, higher lifts, and outdoor or dock use. For most indoor racking and order-building tasks, an electric stacker does the job at a fraction of the cost.
Do operators need special training to use an electric pedestrian stacker?
Electric pedestrian stackers are walk-behind machines, not ride-on forklifts, so they are simpler to operate — but any powered lift equipment should only be used by trained staff. We recommend basic operator familiarization on the controls, load limits, and safe stacking before first use, and following your provincial workplace-safety requirements. Every machine ships with an operator manual, and our team can walk your staff through setup.
What maintenance does an electric pallet stacker need?
Maintenance is light. Keep the machine clean and dry, inspect the forks and wheels for wear, check the hydraulic fluid periodically, and charge the lithium-ion battery as needed — there are no fluids to top up daily like older lead-acid units. We stock batteries, drive motors, control boards, and hydraulic parts in Canada, and technical support is available if you need troubleshooting help.
What is included when I purchase an electric stacker?
Every electric stacker ships complete and ready to work: the machine, an installed lithium-ion battery, and a matching built-in charger — no separate battery purchase needed. You also get the operator manual, warranty coverage against manufacturing defects, and access to Canadian parts and technical support. Some Sumachay Plus models add an extended warranty and priority support.
