What is it for?
When to choose an electric stacker?
When pallets must be lifted onto racking, not just moved, but a large counterbalance truck is not needed. For compact warehouses and smaller racking, with initial lift for ramps and double stacking.
- Stacking into racks, typically up to 3–7 m
- 1–2 t capacity
- Pedestrian, platform, stand-on and sit-on versions
Typical jobs

Cat® NSP10-16N3(R)(I)(S)
Pedestrian stackers, also available with a fold-down platform, for short shuttle runs and stacking up to 5.4 metres, with capacities from 1.0 to 1.6 tonnes.
The NSP10-16N3 family is the latest generation of Cat® pedestrian stackers, designed for short shuttle runs and stacking up to 5.4 metres. Its 16 models cover 1.0, 1.2, 1.4 and 1.6 tonne capacities: the 800 mm wide, 1835 mm long NSP10N3 fits into the tightest warehouses, while the larger models are reliable everyday workhorses for any warehouse.
- AC drive with an advanced programmable controller, so users can prioritise faster performance or smoother handling with lower energy consumption.
- Patented emPower tiller head with large lift and lower buttons that are easy to use one-handed, even with gloves; tiller-up drive at creep speed for manoeuvring in tight spaces.
- Offset tiller arm on the non-R models, so the operator can walk comfortably and safely alongside the truck.
- Slim mast profiles and carefully routed hydraulic hoses for a clear forward view; high-strength masts and a height-adjustable castor wheel for stable load handling.

NSP12Q2LM
Cat® NSP12Q2LM
A small, light Li-ion pedestrian stacker with a 1,200 kg capacity and stacking up to 2.0 m for warehouses, supermarkets and production areas – compact enough to travel in a van or a lift.
The NSP12Q2LM is the smallest stacker in the Cat® EQ Line, the entry-level range for lighter duties: a pedestrian stacker with a mono mast, a 1,200 kg capacity and a 600 mm load centre. It is built for light work in warehouses, supermarkets and production areas – short shuttle runs, stacking up to 2.0 m, filling shelves and order picking – and is small enough to be carried in a van or taken up in a goods lift.
- 24 V / 60 Ah lithium-ion battery with built-in charger: plug in to any suitable socket, opportunity-charge during short breaks instead of changing batteries, and no topping up with water
- Battery management system (BMS) and battery level display
- Spring-loaded ergonomic tiller arm with a multifunction head for one-handed operation; creep-speed button for manoeuvring with the tiller upright
- Automatic speed reduction when cornering to maintain stability
Capacity1,200 kg

Cat® NSP12-13Q2LD(I)
Compact Li-ion pedestrian stackers with 1,200 and 1,300 kg capacity and duplex or triplex masts, also available with initial lift (I).
The NSP12-13Q2LD(I) family is the higher-lifting member of the compact Cat® EQ Line stackers. It keeps the small 800 mm wide chassis that fits into vans and lifts, but adds duplex masts – and triplex masts on the 1.3 tonne models – so it stacks up to 3.6 m, or 4.3 m with a triplex mast. It is designed for light duties in warehouses, supermarkets and production areas: stacking, short shuttle runs, order picking and shelf filling.
- 24 V lithium-ion battery – 60 Ah on the 1.2 tonne models, 100 Ah on the 1.3 tonne models – with built-in 25 A charger, BMS and battery level display; opportunity charging means no battery changes
- Automatic speed reduction when cornering and a clear-view mast with a Perspex guard
- Spring-loaded tiller arm with a multifunction head and creep speed for manoeuvring with the tiller upright
- Fine-control hydraulics with soft start on the 1.3 tonne models

Cat® NSR12-20N2(I)(S) & NSR12N2TF
Stand-in stackers with an enclosed, protected operator compartment for stacking up to 7 metres, internal transport over short and long distances and order picking; the NSR12N2TF adds telescopic forks for double-deep racking.
On the NSR12-20N2 stand-in stackers the operator stands inside an enclosed, protected compartment. This makes the truck shorter and more manoeuvrable than platform stackers, with no stopping to fold a platform or side bars up and down. It stacks up to 7 metres, handles internal transport over short and long distances and order picking, and in many applications is a lower-cost alternative to a reach truck that also works in tighter aisles.
- Fully adjustable steering wheel for different driving positions depending on travel direction, and an adjustable armrest with thumbwheel throttle and fingertip hydraulic levers for simultaneous drive and lift control.
- Optical presence sensor that lets the operator move their feet without triggering automatic braking; fully floating floor, low step-in height and cushioned backrest.
- Progressive electric power steering and automatic cornering control; above 1.7 m lift height creep speed (5 km/h) raises capacity at height.
- All-round protection from a heavy-duty chassis, integrated bumper, overhead guard pillars and roof; clear view of the fork tips and damped mast and fork carriage.

Cat® NSS16-20N2(I)(S) & NSS12N2TF
Sit-on stackers for intensive stacking up to 7 metres, long internal transport runs and long shifts; the NSS12N2TF adds telescopic forks for double-deep racking.
The NSS16-20N2 sit-on stackers are made for sites where operators stack and move goods over large areas throughout long shifts. They are compact and easy to manoeuvre yet lift up to 7 metres, so aisles can be narrower and racking higher. They compete with many reach trucks on lift height at a lower cost and in tighter spaces, and they are faster than platform stackers because there is no platform or side bar to fold.
- Fully adjustable, fabric-covered suspension seat, unobstructed floor and low step-in height; electrically adjustable floor height (70 mm) as an option.
- Adjustable mini steering wheel on a floating armrest (midi steering wheel optional) that folds up for easy entry and exit; fingertip hydraulic levers and hands-free direction control by pedal (hand-operated switch optional).
- Progressive electric power steering, automatic cornering control and creep speed above 1.7 m lift height for higher capacity at height.
- Heavy-duty chassis, integrated bumper and overhead guard; carefully designed mast and fork carriage for a clear view, with damped mast movements for smooth stacking.

Cat® NSV/NSF12-16N3(I)(R)(S)(S)
Platform stackers with a folding (NSV) or fixed, protected (NSF) platform for high-intensity stacking up to 5.4 metres, order picking and internal transport, with 1.25–1.6 tonne capacity.
The NSV/NSF12-16N3 platform stackers are built for high-intensity, multi-role work in factories and warehouses: stacking and retrieving loads up to 5.4 metres, supply and feed tasks, order picking and internal transport. A short, light chassis only 748 mm wide and easy, precise control let them move quickly and safely through narrow aisles.
- Patented emPower tiller head: butterfly-type speed and brake control with seven finger positions and dual controls usable with either hand, even in gloves; sealed to IP65.
- Three steering types: mechanical tiller arm (NSV only), power steering through a short tiller arm with hydraulic damper, and scooter-style Comfort Steering (NSF); power-steered trucks adjust sensitivity to speed and control cornering speed.
- Effective platform and mast damping; the fixed cast-iron platform has a low step height, and an overhead guard is standard on NSF models.
- 2.4 kW AC drive motor with regenerative braking; above 1.7 m lift height travel speed is automatically limited to 5 km/h, raising the capacity at height.
