Receiving, buffer movement and line replenishment.
The compact chassis suits routine pallet transfers where a counterbalance truck would add unnecessary size and cost.
Horizontal pallet transport
Electric pallet truck.
A compact walkie truck for low-intensity pallet movement between receiving, staging, production and dispatch—where lift height is not the primary job.

01 / Application fit
Move pallets without specifying a forklift.
This truck handles horizontal transfer and low fork lift only. It is a practical fit when pallets remain at floor or dock height and the route is relatively short.
The task includes stacking or high-frequency long travel.
Choose a stacker for raised storage, a reach truck for high racking or a ride-on platform family for sustained travel. Check ramps, thresholds and dock plates before selection.
02 / Task principle
Enter, lift, travel, place.
The fork geometry must match the pallet entry while the route must accommodate the loaded truck and operator.
Align with pallet
Confirm fork spacing, pallet openings and load condition.
Clear the floor
Raise only enough for safe transfer rather than storage stacking.
Move through the route
Turning space, gradients, doorways and pedestrian traffic set the real fit.
Lower and withdraw
Position the pallet at staging, line-side or dispatch and exit cleanly.
03 / Reference features
Compact hardware for light-duty autonomy.
The reference truck prioritises a small footprint and uncomplicated charging.
Built-in charger
The supplier describes onboard charging for greater day-to-day autonomy.
Low-voltage protection
Automatic lift cut-off is intended to protect battery life at low voltage.
Stabilising wheels
Additional support wheels contribute to operating stability.
Compact width
Two reference overall widths support different pallet or fork arrangements.
Walkie control
The operator walks with the truck, suitable for shorter internal transfers.
Food-area review
Wheel compound, corrosion protection and hygiene-zone access remain project-specific.
04 / Reference specification
Engineering data.
Confirm actual pallet size, load distribution and operating route before ordering.
* Supplier reference data. Capacity is affected by load condition; aisle figures are based on the stated pallet orientation and clearance.

05 / Project configuration
The route is part of the truck.
Small site details determine whether a nominally suitable vehicle works safely and efficiently.
Pallet interface
Confirm dimensions and entry direction.
- Pallet type and fork openings
- Load overhang and stability
- Required fork outside width
Floor and route
Map every transition.
- Gradients and dock plates
- Thresholds and floor joints
- Doorways and turning points
Duty and energy
Check whether walkie operation is appropriate.
- Trips and distance per shift
- Charging windows
- Battery access and power point
Food environment
Identify areas that change materials or maintenance.
- Ambient, chilled or freezer
- Wet-cleaning exposure
- Hygiene zoning and pedestrian traffic
06 / Selection brief
Measure the pallet journey.
A route drawing and pallet photo usually answer more than a capacity request alone.
