MARKET OVERVIEW
A reach stacker is a heavy-duty material handling machine that is used for stacking, transporting, and handling shipping containers and other heavy loads in ports, terminals, and warehouses. It consists of a cab for the operator, a telescopic mast, and a horizontal reach mechanism that extends out from the mast. The reach stacker is designed to handle a wide range of loads and can stack containers up to five high. Reach stackers offer several advantages over traditional material handling equipment, including increased efficiency and productivity, improved safety, and the ability to handle heavy loads with ease. Some of the key end-users of reach stackers include ports, terminals, warehouses, and distribution centers. The future of the reach stacker market is expected to be driven by the increasing demand for efficient and reliable material handling equipment in the logistics and transportation sector.
