Reach Stacker

FAQ About New Reach Stackers

Q1: What are the lifting capacities and stacking heights of your reach stackers?
Archer Machinery supplies brand-new reach stackers primarily designed for 20′ and 40′ ISO containers. Our most popular models, such as those from SANY and XCMG, feature a lifting capacity of up to 45 tons in the first row and can stack containers up to 5 or 6 levels high, maximizing space efficiency in your terminal.

Q2: How do your reach stackers handle heavy loads with precision and safety?
Safety is our top priority. Each new unit is equipped with a dynamic Anti-Tipping Protection system and a high-precision load-weighing system. These factory-integrated technologies automatically limit movement if the machine approaches its stability limit, ensuring the operator and cargo remain safe during high-stacking operations.

Q3: What engine and transmission brands are used in Archer Machinery units?
To ensure global serviceability and maximum uptime, our reach stackers are powered by world-class drivetrains, including Volvo Penta or Cummins engines paired with DANA or ZF transmissions and Kessler axles. This combination provides the high torque and reliability required for intensive 24/7 port operations.

Q4: Are specialized spreaders available for non-containerized cargo?
Yes. While the standard telescopic spreader is for containers, we can factory-configure your reach stacker with Intermodal attachments (for trailers/swap bodies) or Log/Steel Pipe clamps. Buying brand-new allows you to customize the hydraulic interface to match your specific terminal handling needs.

Q5: How can I quickly source replacement filters or hydraulic components?
In the terminal business, downtime is extremely costly. Archer Machinery supports your fleet through our dedicated parts division at www.archerparts.com. We stock everything from specialized spreader wear pads and hydraulic sensors to engine maintenance kits for rapid global dispatch.
