Platform Double Pallet Handler
NPV/NPF20N3D
24V Electric
Highly manoeuvrable, even in tight spaces.
Work twice as fast with our time-saving platform double handlers – designed to carry two pallet loads at once, cutting movements in half for lorry loading, unloading, cross-docking, and internal transport.

Achieve double the efficiency by carrying two pallet loads simultaneously, perfect for intensive lorry loading/unloading, cross-docking, and internal transport over any distance. Operators can place one load on the straddle legs and another on the forks, keeping the truck compact and manoeuvrable even in tight spaces.

The NPV20N3D model features a foldable platform, allowing for easy switching between ride-on and pedestrian modes. For added comfort and protection, the fixed platform models come with solid safety barriers around the operator compartment, with rear entry on the NPF20N3DR and side entry on the NPF20N3DS.

These models share advanced features with the NPV/NPF20-25N3 platform series, including various steering system options.

  • Active Spin Reduction (ASR)
  • Multifunctional display
  • Electrically adjustable damping
  • Overhead guard (standard on NPF with higher-lifting mast, optional on others)
  • Load backrest
  • Quick-release battery lock
  • Battery rollers
  • Cold store modification, 0 to -30⁰C

LOWER COST OF OPERATION

  • Fully weather-protected and impact-resistant tiller head is sealed to IP65 standard and reinforced for high durability.
  • Sealing of connectors, sensors, and other key components combines with robust construction, protected display location, shock and accident resilience, long service intervals, and fast access features – including removable motor cover – to reduce maintenance needs and improve uptime.
  • Standard display includes BDI (battery discharge indicator) to help prevent damaging deep discharge and support optimal timing of battery changes.
  • Multifunctional display option offers clear information on truck and battery condition, faults and actions, and enables setting of operator IDs and PIN code access to avoid unauthorized truck use.
  • Compatibility of parts reduces stock-related costs for servicing of these and other Cat® trucks.

UNMATCHED PRODUCTIVITY

  • Double pallet handling capability halves the number of transport movements required.
  • Initial lift (210 mm) allows clearance under load and makes work easier on steep ramps and loading docks.
  • Compact dimensions combine with easy, accurate handling to allow quick maneuvering, even in tight spaces.
  • Fully integrated Li-ion technology makes continuous operation possible, without battery changes, using fast opportunity charging during short breaks. (Both Li-ion and lead-acid versions are available.)
  • Exceptional levels of comfort, control, traction, and stability keep operators alert, confident, and productive, however intense their workload.
  • Three performance modes are selectable to suit individual users and applications: Pro for advanced operators and intensive operations; Eco to blend low energy consumption with high productivity; Easy for learners and sensitive goods handling. (These are only available with multifunctional display option.)
  • Latest AC drive motor technology delivers higher torque and easier controllability, for top-class performance.
  • Proportional lift/lower control via rocker buttons enables quick, smooth, and fine-tuned fork movements.

SAFETY AND ERGONOMICS

  • Unique ProRide+ system is a milestone advance in power pallet truck development which solves the age-old problem of how to combine effective traction, damping, and stability.
  • Unique floating drive unit design works with additional friction force from the hydraulic system to maximize drive wheel pressure and traction, so wheelspin on slippery floors is prevented and braking performance optimized.
  • Unique patented castor wheel design uses variable damping to minimize shocks and vibration, even on rough surfaces, and features a locking function which maintains stability during turns, with or without loads.
  • Best-in-class emPower ergonomic tiller head gives easier access to controls with a unique design that achieves the optimum distance between hand and lift/lower buttons.
  • Ergonomically designed tiller head operating features include optimized handle shape and cross-section, large hand space, enlarged horn and lift/lower buttons, and an optimally angled throttle wheel with seven convenient finger positions.
  • Dual throttle wheel controls allow easy reach with either hand and can be used accurately even when the operator is wearing gloves.
  • Tiller-type power steering via a short tiller arm features a hydraulic damper and works without physical connection to the drive wheel – avoiding transmission of bumps, twists, and turns, while enabling comfortable, controlled, precise maneuvering. (Available on folding platform and rear-entry fixed platform models.)
  • Comfort Steering via a tiller head without arm – as on an electric scooter – maximizes power-steered control and precision, with the aid of a damper, while avoiding shock, vibration, strain, and fatigue in the operator’s hands, wrists, and arms. (Available on fixed platform models.)
  • Mechanical steering option provides a long tiller arm for a simple, low-effort maneuvering solution in less intense work environments. (Only available on folding platform models.)
  • Electronic steering technology automatically adjusts sensitivity according to steered angle and truck speed, and gives resistance and feedback, for controlled travel and full confidence. (On power-steered trucks.)
  • Cornering control automatically slows truck down when turning, to maintain safe motion. (On power-steered trucks.)
  • High-comfort damping on both folding and fixed platforms minimizes impacts on the knees, especially, and acts progressively with increasing operator weight, while ergonomic controls and steering further reduce effort and fatigue.
  • Unique electrically adjustable damping option on fixed platform models is optimized for each operator’s weight and preference at the touch of a button, providing a cost-effective increase in comfort.
  • Overhead guard protects operator from falling goods. (Standard on fixed platform models with higher-lifting mast. Optional on all others.)
  • Protective side bars on folding platform models are high-positioned, cushioned, comfortable, and shock-resistant, and are deployed quickly and simply – with one hand – to help avoid falls and defend against impacts.
  • Fixed platform models give extra protection and comfort, with low step height and a choice of rear and side entry barrier designs.
  • Optional foot protection system automatically slows/stops the truck if foot is outside platform. (Rear entry fixed platform models.)
  • Rugged build includes compact but heavy-duty chassis, integrated bumper and cast-iron platform to resist deformation and protect the operator.
