A Reach Stacker is one of the most flexible handling solutions whether to operate a small terminal or a medium sized port.
Reach stackers are able to transport a container in short distances very quickly and pile them in various rows depending on its access.
Reach stackers have gained ground in container handling in most markets because of their flexibility and higher stacking and storage capacity when compared to lift trucks. Using reach stackers, container blocks can be kept 4-deep due to the second row access.
There are also empty stackers that are used only for handling empty containers.
