EXV 12 Still Walkie Stacker Specs & Dimensions (2009 - 2018)

Tough - everywhere.

STILL’s EXV range comes in an all-new, up-to-the-minute yet functional design that’s even easier to use and more manoeuvrable, with higher load carrying capacity and longer work cycles for each battery charge. The EXV models have increased strength in the areas prone to impact damage, and the extremely durable cover is manufactured from high-strength, shock adsorption material, offering excellent accessibility for servicing and maintenance. A powerful high lift pallet stacker with minimum operating costs, it provides the right solution for industrial, service, wholesale, and general trade applications. The EXV is offered in two load classes: light, of 1 t or 1.2 t where pallet turnover is low to moderate, and heavy, of 1.4 and 1.6 t, for high pallet turnover.

Design.

The modern, functional design and the optimal ergonomics of the tiller make this truck a great all-rounder for a multiplicity of applications. Various storage compartments are incorporated in the new, extremely strong polyurethane cover. The EXV 10 Basic features modern and user-friendly design, as well as the ergonomic STILL tiller. Various storage compartments are incorporated in the strong plastic cover.

Battery.

The EXV 12 i can be optionally equipped with an integral battery charger. The drive control technology and the low energy requirement resulting from it enable the use of smaller capacity batteries while still providing longer hours of use. The battery is easily accessible and can be changed by means of a hoist. The EXV 12 is equipped with a new battery compartment which enables the use of batteries from 165 to 225 AH capacity. Mounted on a roller track, the battery can be changed by pulling out to one side or lifting with a hoist. The battery hood, manufactured from extremely strong, impact-resistant polyurethane, can be removed without tools, facilitating battery inspection and maintenance. A combi-instrument displaying battery state of charge and operating hours is fitted as standard.

The EGV has been specially developed for arduous workloads involving putting goods into and taking them out of stock at medium lift heights.

Chassis.

The construction, with four support points and the tiller fitted at the side, guarantees high stability with a perfect view of the load when picking up and placing a pallet at height. The drive unit and the support wheel remain within the truck frame, so that the driver’s feet are better protected. The battery compartment is protected all round by steel sheets and designed for DIN batteries. As standard, the battery is pulled out from the side. The covers are made of impact-resistant heavy duty polyurethane and possess high strength and elasticity, enabling them to absorb heavy impacts without deformation. The EGV-S has 4-point wheel support: the rigidly mounted drive unit, arranged to one side, with a castor wheel. This configuration guarantees the stability and high residual capacity that are essential properties of a high lift pallet truck. The motor compartment is fitted with a strong and resilient polyurethane cover, with very high impact resistance. The same material is used for the battery compartment cover, which features an integral storage tray and a document clip. The battery is charged with a hoist, but can also be removed from the side. Both options are included in standard specifications. Batteries with a capacity of up to 360 Ah can be used.

Pedestrian high lift pallet truck with hinged platform.

The new high lift pallet truck, with hinged driver’s platform and side protection arms, has been developed with the objective of achieving the best possible safety and ergonomics. Thanks to the use of reliable and proven technical solutions, the new EGV-S is an extremely reliable and productive machine, especially under difficult application conditions.

Steering

Smooth manoeuvring is achievable in the tightest of spaces. A gas-spring strut quickly and smoothly brings the user-friendly tiller to the vertical brake position after releasing. With an offset drive and castor wheel, the high lift pallet stacker is a safe and stable 4-wheel truck. Lighter steering and an ergonomically weighted tiller make for easy manoeuvring in the tightest spaces. A gas spring takes the user-friendly balanced tiller handle quickly into the vertical braking position when it is released. The offset drive wheel and auxiliary swivel castor mean that this high lift pallet truck is a stable 4-wheel vehicle.

Drive

Maintenance and wear-free, the totally enclosed 1.2 kW three-phase alternating current (AC) drive offers high performance to the user for in-plant handling and transportation tasks. The modern AC drive controller provides improved traction control for the user, e.g. noticeably powerful acceleration and drive. The drive characteristics can be easily programmed by STILL Service to suit the user’s specific requirements. A speed sensor, which is connected to the control unit, provides gentle, progressive acceleration of the EXV 12 i up to maximum speed, independent of the load on the forks. Braking is activated in the driving mode by releasing the driving switch. The AC motor acts as a generator and recovers energy during deceleration. With the “Hold on Ramp” feature, when the drive switch is released, the controller monitors truck movement and prevents uncontrolled roll-back by applying the motor brake. Comfortable, economical, and hence cost-saving operation is achieved thanks to an electronic controller with MOSFET technology. Sensitive driving, independent of load, is facilitated by the remotely excited shunt wound motor. The trucks will start smoothly and accelerate evenly up to maximum travel speed. Braking while travelling is achieved by releasing the drive switch or by plugging. The remotely excited motor acts as a generator and is used to recover energy when braking. When starting on a gradient, the controller and the drive come immediately into effect to prevent uncontrolled rolling back. The drive is provided by a motor with a rating of 1.2 kW. The motor is of the shunt-wound design, and special software allows it to be controlled in such a way that the benefits of shunt wound technology are harnessed to maximum effect: effective and safe control of the speed, whether laden, unladen, or on ramps. Energy recovery leads to reduced energy consumption.

Braking System

The truck features two independent brake systems. Soft braking with energy recovery is activated by releasing the butterfly drive control switch or selecting the opposite direction. The dust-protected electromagnetic disk brake acts as a safety and parking brake. Braking takes place automatically when the tiller is positioned horizontally or vertically (dead-man brake). The electromagnetic disc brake system is protected from dirt and acts both as a safety braking system and a parking brake. The drive controller takes control of the brake, operating on the motor shaft, with simultaneous actuation of the electromagnet and shut off of the drive current. Braking is automatic when the tiller is horizontal or vertical (deadman braking).

Made to work.

Placing the load’s centre of gravity between the drive and the running wheels achieves high carrying capacity without a counterweight. The smallest working aisle widths on the market, thanks to compact construction, guarantees good manoeuvrability. The wide clear-view lifting mast and offset tiller offer the best visibility for both load transportation and stacking. Rocker mounting of the tandem rollers further increases driving comfort and facilitates movement over rough ground and thresholds. Ground clearance can be increased to 130 mm using the initial lift.

Mast.

Clear view mast in telescopic, telescopic with special free lift and Triplex versions. Narrow mast design gives clear visibility past the mast which means greater safety when stacking and destacking, even with very high loads. Nested I-beam mast sections are fitted with inclined mast rollers and the lift chains run behind them, to give a clear view onto the roadway and the load.

Maximum reliability

STILL’s entire EXV range is characterised by: Damped lowering on all lifting units to protect the load. Extremely robust fork tips with a round-tipped wedge shape for better pallet insertion. Wider track provides greater load-bearing and stability. The variable drive controller (a proven MOSFET microprocessor controlled electronic power pack) offers speeds from rapid travel through to very sensitive movement for delicate loads. Automatic braking on drive switch release. With special preparation, the EXV is fully ready for work in cold stores - and the resulting temperature changes - to as low as -30 °C.

Hydraulic System

The newly developed pulse control responds sensitively to the lightest touch on the control button to give precise load positioning. Electronic control of the hydraulic pump motor gives stepless and proportional response. An enclosed motor drives a high pressure gear pump. Responsive, light-touch buttons control lifting and lowering speeds. Maximum pressure relief valve, lowering valve and line break safety devices protect the hydraulic system. Additionally, enclosed motor drives a high pressure gear pump, where hoist and lowering speeds are regulated by depressing the corresponding button. Fully proportional hydraulics are achieved by electronic control of the pump motor speed. Maximum pressure valve, lowering control valve and hose burst safety valve protect the hydraulics.

Electronic system

24 volt DC supply. Electronic MOSFET combi-controller for drive and pump motor. The work hour meter incorporates an error message display. The new electronic system guarantees low energy consumption and quiet operation of the pallet truck. The control system prevents current peaks and thus protects the motors and the battery from premature wear. All electrical systems and cabling are to Enclosure Class IP 54 and protected against water splashes and the ingress of dust, guaranteeing years of reliability. Components from the automotive trade with an Enclosure Class of IP 67 are used for the connecting plugs.

The initial lift function of the EXV 12 i makes it suitable for use on uneven ground conditions or on ramps.

Mast

STILL offers the 1.2 t capacity truck with Tele and full free-lift masts. In addition, the EXV 12 and the EXV 12i can now be fitted with a triple mast allowing configuration to be perfectly matched to the application. The newly designed masts and fork carriage are characterised by their extreme rigidity and robustness. Deeper profiles on the external mast (108 mm), the visibly increased width of the mast as well as the strengthened connection of the forks to the fork carriage, minimise the possible deflection of the forks and mast when loaded. The EXV 10 Basic can be equipped with two alternative mast heights. The sound and proven technology permits storage up to the first beam level, supported by an easy to operate hydraulic system. Duplex and Triplex masts are available, giving the best all-round vision; lift heights over 4300 mm. The masts are available with limited free lift, or full free lift of the forks. The hydraulics use a powerful 3 kW motor. Two capacities are offered: 1400 kg and 2000 kg. There is a wide range of masts to choose from: SIMPLEX, DUPLEX (with and without full free lift) and TRIPLEX (full free lift) masts, all offering excellent visibility. Masts are available with lift heights over 5300 mm (EGV-S 14) or over 4300 mm (EGV-S 20).
