EKKO EB18E Full Powered Electric Straddle Stacker — 4,000 lb Capacity with 138" Lift Height
The EKKO EB18E is a fully powered electric walkie straddle stacker engineered for contractors and warehouse professionals who need the combined functionality of a forklift, reach truck, and walkie stacker in a single machine. With a 4,000 lb load capacity and a raised height of 138" (11.5 ft), it is purpose-built for loading and unloading trucks, servicing loading docks, stocking manufacturing floors, and managing warehouse inventory. The EB18E ships with battery and charger included, making it ready to deploy immediately on arrival.
Unlike standard walkie stackers that sacrifice power for compactness, the EB18E features a 24V AC drive motor governed by a Curtis Controller — the same control platform found in commercial-grade riders — paired with robotic-welded steel construction for structural consistency and long-term durability across demanding job-site conditions.

Key Features & Benefits
Curtis Controller with 24V AC Drive Motor
The Curtis Controller is a proven platform used across commercial electric lift equipment, delivering precise speed and torque management for both drive and lift functions. For contractors operating in confined spaces or on busy docks, this level of control reduces the risk of load mis-placement and equipment damage. The 24V AC drive motor adds reliability and lower maintenance requirements compared to brushed DC alternatives.
Adjustable Forks and Legs
Fork width adjusts from 9.8" to 31.5" and straddle legs adjust from 45.5" to 59.1", allowing the EB18E to accommodate a wide range of pallet sizes and load configurations without tooling changes. This adaptability is critical on job sites or stockrooms where pallet standards vary across suppliers and deliveries.
Robotic-Welded Steel Construction
The mast and frame are fabricated from high-quality steel using robotic welding, which produces consistent, high-integrity weld seams throughout the structure. This construction method is engineered to withstand the repetitive stress, directional changes, and impact loads common in active warehouse and manufacturing environments.
24V / 160Ah Battery and 24V / 20A Charger Included
The EB18E ships with both its 160Ah battery and 20A charger, eliminating the additional procurement and compatibility concerns that come with separately sourced power systems. For contractors setting up a new operation or expanding a fleet, this reduces total out-of-pocket cost and deployment time.
Polyurethane Wheels
Polyurethane wheels provide a balance of floor protection and load-bearing durability suited to smooth concrete surfaces found in warehouses, stockrooms, and manufacturing floors. They resist marking finished floors while maintaining traction during load transport and positioning.
Ergonomic Handle and Controls
The ergonomic handle and control layout reduces operator fatigue during extended use, which is particularly relevant on high-throughput loading docks or during large inventory moves. Comfortable controls also support more accurate machine operation, reducing the likelihood of handling errors.
Common Applications
Loading and Unloading Trucks
The EB18E's 4,000 lb capacity and 45.3" fork length make it well-suited for pulling and staging palletized loads directly from truck beds at loading docks.
Loading Dock Operations
Its straddle leg design and adjustable fork width allow it to operate efficiently in the tight staging areas typical of commercial loading docks.
Stockroom Management
With a 138" raised height, the EB18E can place and retrieve loads on elevated racking systems found in contractor supply stockrooms and distribution centers.
Manufacturing Floor Material Handling
The machine's combination of drive power, lift height, and durable construction supports repeated material movement across manufacturing floor environments where cycle frequency and terrain variation are high.
Warehousing
Adjustable legs and forks, combined with full electric power for both drive and lift, make the EB18E a capable general-purpose stacking solution for warehouse inventory operations.
Compatible Materials
- Standard wood pallets
- Plastic pallets
- Palletized construction materials
- Boxed and crated goods
- Smooth concrete flooring
- Finished warehouse and manufacturing floors (polyurethane wheels)
