Big Joe Forklifts launched its new WS25-40 High Performance Lithium-ion Stacker, a walkie straddle stacker engineered to maximize operator productivity in increasingly tight warehouse aisles and fast-paced production environments.
Designed with capacities ranging from 2,500-4,000 pounds, the WS25-40 combines class-leading compact dimensions with advanced performance features to help operators move more efficiently while reducing downtime and simplifying fleet charging.
“The WS25-40 was designed around the real-world challenges our customers face every day,” says Jimmy Anderson, director of product management at Big Joe Forklifts. “From tight aisles to fast-paced production lines, operators need equipment that is compact, responsive and easy to operate. By integrating Lithium-ion technology into a truck designed around the operator, we’re delivering a solution that improves productivity while simplifying ownership.”
Key takeaways:
· The WS25-40 features a class-leading compact design for superior maneuverability in confined spaces; adjustable fast lift and lower speeds to optimize cycle times; fully proportional controls for smooth, pinpoint load handling; and a standard Lithium-ion battery with onboard charger, eliminating battery maintenance while enabling flexible charging and long run times.
· The WS25-40’s Lithium-ion battery eliminates the need for routine battery maintenance, helping minimize downtime and total cost of ownership. The onboard charger supports opportunity charging, allowing fleets to stay productive throughout the day without dedicated charging infrastructure or battery swaps.
