VLE06

Self-loading powered stacker 600 kg

The VLE06 self-loading stacker lifts up to 600 kg and makes it easier to load a pallet into a truck without a tail lift. Travel, lifting and lowering are fully electric, powered by a 48 V lithium battery, with a wired remote control for safe manoeuvring in confined areas.

DESCRIPTION

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The VLE06-09, VLE06-11 and VLE06-13 self-loading stackers belong to a category of equipment specifically designed for loading pallets into transport vehicles without a tail lift or ramp.
This STOCKMAN range is intended for autonomous material handling operations where access to the truck bed would normally require additional equipment.
The rated capacity reaches 600 kg with pedestrian operation, suitable for use on loading bays, yards and directly alongside vehicles. Three standard lift heights structure the range: 900 mm, 1100 mm and 1300 mm, making it easier to match operating constraints and usable loading height.

Fully electric operation and controlled maneuvering
The VLE06 stands out thanks to fully electric operation of its key functions: travel, lifting and lowering. Power is supplied by a 48 V / 24 Ah lithium battery with an integrated charger, simplifying on-site energy management. A magnetic wired remote control enhances control during maneuvers close to the vehicle, with dedicated commands for lifting, lowering and forward/reverse travel.
This self-loading stacker is particularly suited to construction trades, maintenance workshops, multi-building sites, distribution platforms and worksites with stabilised ground. Operating principle and applications
This type of stacker is used in environments where loading is carried out in close proximity to the vehicle: loading bays, logistics yards, maintenance workshops, multi-building sites, distribution platforms or worksites with stabilised areas. In these configurations, the equipment plays a central role in internal material flow organisation. It handles pallet pick-up, transport to the truck, and elevation to position the load at the required height.
The self-loading principle proves especially relevant for recurring loading and unloading operations, delivery rounds, or maintenance interventions involving palletised equipment. The stacker boards its own structure via an electric lifting system and a guided sliding mechanism, securing access to the vehicle and stabilising manoeuvres in confined spaces.

Advantages of the VLE06 self-loading stacker

The VLE06 provides an operational response to vehicle loading constraints, with a strong focus on safety and continuity of operation.
Autonomous loading without tail lift or ramp: the self-loading system provides level access to the truck bed.
100% electric functions: travel, lifting and lowering reduce manual effort and stabilise handling cycles.
Remote control operation: the magnetic wired remote allows distance control during critical phases near the vehicle.
Lithium power: 48 V / 24 Ah battery with integrated charger for simple daily use.
Compact format and pedestrian operation: suitable for confined areas, dock manoeuvres and vehicle approach.

Technical specifications of the VL06E self-loading stacker
Structure / platform / chassis / load
The rated capacity is 0.6 t with a 400 mm load centre, corresponding to standard pallet handling in internal logistics. Weight with batteries ranges from 388 to 402 kg depending on version, contributing to machine stability. Forks are 1220 mm long with an overall width of 560 mm. Minimum fork height is 85 mm for standard pallet entry. Integrated stabilisers reinforce balance during lifting and boarding phases.
Travel speed and gradients
Travel speed reaches 4.0 km/h with load and 4.2 km/h without load, suitable for controlled movement in mixed environments. Gradeability is 3% with load and 5% without load, limiting use to even surfaces and shallow ramps typical of structured handling areas.
Manoeuvrability and dimensions
Overall length is 1730 mm and overall width 920 mm. A turning radius of 1180 mm supports manoeuvring in confined spaces with pedestrian control. Three lowered mast heights are available (1250 / 1450 / 1650 mm) depending on model, facilitating access under height restrictions. Raised mast height reaches 2480 / 2680 / 2880 mm in line with the standard lift heights of 900 / 1100 / 1300 mm.
Wheels and running gear
The stacker runs on polyurethane (PU) wheels adapted to industrial floors. The drive wheel measures Ø 190 × 70 mm, front wheels Ø 80 × 70 mm, and stabiliser wheels Ø 75 × 35 mm, offering a balance between stability, rolling resistance and precision positioning at the vehicle.
Power, motors and noise level
The traction motor is rated at 0.75 kW (S2 60 min) and the lift motor at 2 kW (S3 10%). The 48 V / 24 Ah lithium battery weighs 12 kg and is paired with an integrated charger for simple recharging between handling sequences. An electromagnetic service brake enhances safety during stops and controlled movements near vehicles. Noise level remains below 70 dB(A) in accordance with EN 12053.

Ergonomics, MSD prevention and safety

The VLE06 contributes to reducing physical strain associated with manual truck loading and manoeuvring. Electric functions limit pulling, pushing and lifting efforts that heavily impact the back and upper limbs.
The magnetic wired remote control allows operators to manage movements at a distance, reducing exposure to pinch points and improving control during lifting and vehicle access.
The ergonomic tiller centralises key operating information and controls: battery discharge indicator, hour meter, diagnostic code, turtle mode, emergency stop and PIN code activation. These features support standardised use, traceability and error prevention.
An emergency stop button is also fitted on the remote control for immediate shutdown during manoeuvres.

Productivity and operational gains

The self-loading system reduces the steps and constraints associated with truck loading. A typical sequence includes pallet lifting, fork lowering, loading, stabiliser deployment, stacker elevation, stabiliser retraction, lift command and final positioning inside the vehicle.

This process stabilises operation times and avoids interruptions linked to ramp installation or tail lift availability. Over a working day, electric drive and lithium power support continuous operation. The integrated charger simplifies on-site recharging and reduces dependence on external accessories.

Typical applications of the VLE06 self-loading stacker

This stacker integrates into internal flows where autonomous truck loading is required:
Loading pallets into a truck without a tail lift on a dock or logistics yard
Transport and distribution operations with last-metre handling
Industrial maintenance involving palletised equipment
Construction activities and technical interventions on even ground
Organisation of outbound flows with reduced manual handling

Target users

The VLE06 is intended for organisations seeking a self-loading stacker to load pallets into trucks without a tail lift, under space constraints and with a need for consistent operating rhythm. It is suitable for transport, logistics, multi-site maintenance, professional distribution, technical platforms and operations where a single operator must carry out loading safely.

The VLE06 self-loading stacker combines autonomous loading, electric drive and lithium power to structure safer and more consistent truck handling operations. The choice between 900, 1100 and 1300 mm lift heights allows alignment with vehicle constraints and internal flow organisation. To validate suitability for the vehicle and pallet type, consultation with a local STOCKMAN sales representative is recommended.
