The overall lithium battery structure makes the ERC 216zi the most compact vehicle of its type.
With compact structure and flexible operation, the vehicle is especially suitable for logistics work in narrow channels.
Thanks to the new three-sided platform and elevated protective device, the safety is higher.

IF design award

This year, ERC 216zi, a lithium battery stacker, was awarded the iF design award. The iF design award was first awarded in 1953 and is considered to be the most historically authoritative independent design award.

The ERC 216zi is the most compact stacker of its kind and is highly maneuverable thanks to its integrated lithium battery design, which greatly reduces the length of the forklift by removing the battery slots between the operator platform and the door frame.

The ERC 216zi's L2 is 1245mm, 170 mm shorter than a similar forklift, and is by far the most compact electric stacker on the market. These were all very impressive to the jury, which awarded eternal force lithium battery stacker ERC 216zi in the iF design award - vehicle/carrier vehicle category.

Full protection

In developing the ERC 216zi, eternal force paid particular attention to the ergonomics of the forklift. A stationary standing platform provides support and comfort for the driver, which is an important advantage, especially for those who operate for long periods of time.

The layout of the operating platforms allows them to control forklifts more directly, and the new smartPILOT electrically operates the steering, allowing precise, one-handed steering with ease. The 4-inch display gives the operator a clear overview of the vehicle, and the new storage system also allows the operator to set up his own workplace.

The new ERC 216zi permanence lithium battery stacking vehicle also sets safety standards, according to DIN ISO 6055's elevated protection to prevent objects from falling. The fixed standing platform and side wall also provide the operator with complete protection from three sides.

Christian Erlach, sales director of eternal force, said: “ Sometimes you have to take a completely different approach, and that's what we did with ERC 216zi. The integrated lithium battery has realized the innovation of forklift truck design. The permanent force lithium battery stacker ERC 216zi is extremely compact and flexible, making it an ideal forklift truck in a narrow warehouse environment. Throughout the &;
