Electric pallet truck

Transporting materials, goods or products from production to shipping or vice versa is part of everyday work in almost every company. The internal transport of heavy goods is made much easier with electric pallet trucks.

Electric pallet trucks are high-quality industrial trucks with an electric drive. With them, pallets, lattice boxes and other goods that can be driven under can be transported easily and conveniently. Thanks to their compact design, they are the ideal transport device in the warehouse or in production, even in confined spaces.

Characteristics of electric pallet trucks

Electric pallet trucks are powered by a battery-powered motor, which is located below the battery mount and between the steering drawbar and the lift mast. Some of our models also have an integrated charger.

The electric pallet truck is a so-called pedestrian floor conveyor, which means that the user walks next to the vehicle and controls it.

With electric pallet trucks, the load center is in the middle, similar to that of manual pallet trucks. These pallet trucks are significantly heavier than Hand pallet truck. They have a particularly stable frame construction. The engine, lift mast with hydraulic pistons and fork as well as the steering drawbar are integrated in it.

The strong electric drive  ensures locomotion and also drives the hydraulic pump in fully electric pallet trucks. This makes work easier, especially with loads of up to 2 tons or when longer distances have to be covered with the pallet truck.

Our electric pallet trucks save manpower and time and, above all, they support ergonomically correct work in the company.

Charge the battery overnight

The usage time of a battery charge of our electric pallet trucks is usually an 8-hour working day. The battery can then be fully charged overnight. For continuous use in shift work, there are of course electric pallet truck models with exchangeable batteries.

Differences between semi-electric pallet truck and fully electric pallet truck

Working with the semi-electric pallet truck  is just as flexible as with a manual pallet truck, which requires physical effort when moving goods but very low due to the motor.  With this pallet truck, goods can be transported electrically, the lifting hydraulics are actuated by pumping movements with the drawbar, as with hand pallet trucks.

The fully electric pallet trucks , on the other hand, usually have two independent electric motors, one of which provides propulsion and the other other lifts the pallet truck forks.

Electric pallet truck or forklift?

Some customers ask themselves whether they shouldn't just buy a forklift truck for their business. There is no quick answer to this question, but there are still a few points that make it easier to make a decision.

A forklift needs far more space to maneuver than a compact, manoeuvrable electric pallet truck.
The acquisition costs of a forklift are also far higher than those of an electric pallet truck and in this case one naturally has to ask the question when these investment costs will pay off for operation.

Electric forklifts are cheaper to buy and quite powerful, electrically operated transport devices for small and medium-sized businesses.
Even if the electric pallet truck is similar to the forklift, it does not require a forklift license. This is only required for models equipped with a driver's seat or driver's stand.
