NSV12-16N3(I)(S)/NSF12-16N3(I)(R)(S)(S) platform stackers – ideal for high-intensity, multiple-role applications, including stacking (up to 5.4 metres), order picking and transport.
The fast, refined, stable and safety-assured performance of these versatile platform stackers inspires operator confidence. Combined with remarkably short and narrow dimensions, light weight and easy, precise control, it enables high productivity. At the same time, the trucks reduce your total cost of operation (TCO) with their robust construction and minimal maintenance needs.
Fleets of Cat® platform stacker trucks serve a variety of purposes in fast-paced factory and warehouse environments. As well as stacking and retrieving loads in high-bay storage areas, they can be used for supply, feed and order fulfilment purposes.
You can choose between folding platform (NSV) models, with optional protective sidebars, and fixed platform (NSF) stackers. Wraparound protective barriers on the fixed platform stacker trucks can be chosen with side (S) or rear (R) entry. Initial lift (I) variants give greater ground clearance, for work on steep ramps and loading docks. They also allow double pallet handling for even higher throughput. Our platform stacker range offers you a choice between three different steering types.
At the heart of our platform stackers’ operator-centric design is its highly stable and agile chassis. Connecting the operator to this is the class-leading, ergonomic, emPower tiller head. From the moment he or she sets off on it for the first time, the stacker feels just right. It’s a feeling of balance, responsive control and power that continues consistently through every shift.
The tiller head and its easily accessible, user-friendly controls allow rapid but accurate and safe manoeuvrability. Powerful motors with advanced control technology enhance both speed and safety in travelling and load handling. Output increases while the risk of accidents and associated costs is lowered.
Fatigue, strain and the related need for sick leave are also minimised, thanks to a smooth, comfortable user experience. The effective platform and mast damping of our platform stackers is crucial to operator comfort. On fixed platform models, you can even choose the option of electrically adjustable damping.
Unprecedented levels of component sharing within the Cat stacker and power pallet portfolio bring additional gains. Fixes are faster, with minimal downtime. Less stock investment is needed. And fewer service van and parts delivery journeys mean a smaller carbon footprint. Everyone wins!
As on our other stacker truck ranges, you can have Cat platform stackers with Li-ion or lead-acid batteries. Li-ion technology has major advantages in multi-shift operations, where it allows non-stop productive action.
- Fully weather-protected and impact-resistant tiller head is sealed to IP65 standard and reinforced for high durability.
- Sealing of connectors, sensors and other key components combines with robust construction, shock and accident resilience, long service intervals and fast access features – including removable motor cover – to reduce maintenance needs and improve uptime.
- Durable design features include heavy-duty chassis, large-diameter drive wheel, protected display location, inductive operator presence sensors, and more, for long life with minimal servicing.
- Li-ion battery (if chosen) gives maximum lifespan, efficiency and runtime.
(Both Li-ion and lead-acid versions are available.) - Advanced motors, regenerative braking and efficient mast designs save on energy (and hydraulic oil consumption).
- Standard display includes BDI (battery discharge indicator) to help prevent damaging deep discharge and support optimal timing of battery changes.
- Multifunctional display option offers clear information on truck and battery condition, faults and actions, and enables setting of operator IDs and PIN code access to avoid unauthorised truck use.
- High levels of component sharing maximise parts availability – and reduce downtime, stock and carbon costs – across the Cat stacker and power pallet ranges.
