Big Joe Forklifts Launches WS25-40 High Performance Lithium-ion Stacker to Boost Productivity in Tight Spaces
Compact, Lithium-powered walkie stacker delivers enhanced maneuverability, precision control and simplified charging
MADISON, Wis.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Big Joe Forklifts today announced the launch of its new WS25-40 High Performance Lithium-ion Stacker, a walkie straddle stacker engineered to maximize operator productivity in increasingly tight warehouse aisles and fast-paced production environments.
Designed with capacities ranging from 2,500 to 4,000 lbs., the WS25-40 combines class-leading compact dimensions with advanced performance features to help operators move more efficiently while reducing downtime and simplifying fleet charging.
The WS25-40 features:
- A class-leading compact design for superior maneuverability in confined spaces.
- Adjustable fast lift and lower speeds to optimize cycle times.
- Fully proportional controls for smooth, pinpoint load handling.
- A standard Lithium-ion battery with onboard charger, eliminating battery maintenance while enabling flexible charging and long run times.
As warehouse footprints tighten and throughput demands increase, operators require equipment that delivers both precision and speed without adding operational complexity. The WS25-40 is purpose-built to meet those demands.
Its Lithium-ion battery eliminates the need for routine battery maintenance, helping minimize downtime and total cost of ownership. The onboard charger supports opportunity charging, allowing fleets to stay productive throughout the day without dedicated charging infrastructure or battery swaps.
Jimmy Anderson, Director of Product Management at Big Joe Forklifts, said:
The WS25-40 was designed around the real-world challenges our customers face every day,
“From tight aisles to fast-paced production lines, operators need equipment that is compact, responsive and easy to operate. By integrating Lithium-ion technology into a truck designed around the operator, we’re delivering a solution that improves productivity while simplifying ownership.”
The WS25-40 reinforces Big Joe’s ongoing commitment to delivering integrated lithium solutions that enhance efficiency, reduce operating costs, and support the industry’s transition from internal combustion to electric fleets.
