Description

The all-purpose EJC 112i electric pedestrian stacker truck can be used in almost any business, especially in small and medium-sized companies, in retail or in production and craft businesses with limited storage and working space. With lift heights of up to 4,700 mm, the EJC 112i supports employees in many logistical processes and helps to make optimum use of available storage space. In addition to pallet handling, order picking is one of the many possible applications.
The EJC 112i can be used to efficiently organize goods in small warehouses, bring raw materials or semi-finished products into the production process in a space-saving manner in manufacturing plants, or move heavy tools and materials. It can also be used for order picking in warehouses or for restocking shelves in retail stores.
But the EJC 112i is more than just a new edition of its predecessor. By consistently exploiting all the advantages of lithium-ion technology, it has been possible to create an even more compact, manoeuvrable truck with the best performance in its class. Complemented by modular battery and charger sizes, this truck concept represents a groundbreaking innovation on the market, offering numerous benefits to both companies and users.

Innovations

For the EJC 112i, Jungheinrich relies 100 percent on lithium-ion technology. This allows many features to be implemented and advantages to be consistently exploited. In addition to the well-known maintenance-free operation and the flexible fast and intermediate charging capability, the development focused above all on the high energy density. This means that the same amount of energy can be accommodated in much smaller modules, saving space in the truck and significantly increasing the scope for new truck dimensions.
For the user, this is visible in the reduced front-end dimension (L2), the good view of the forks and the low overall height. In the past, the heavy weight of old lead-acid batteries was often used as a counterweight, for example to ensure stability when lifting. Until now, this meant that the smaller and lighter the battery and truck, the lower the stability and thus the residual capacity, one of the most important performance variables in the stacker segment. This is different with the EJC 112i. The weight required for high stability and good driving characteristics has been specifically accommodated in the truck frame, thus optimizing the truck’s center of gravity. This explains the unique combination of compact dimensions and high performance.
While other products on the market are usually only compact, Jungheinrich presents top values in this segment for the most important performance figures.

Market relevance

The EJC 112i is characterized by durability, robustness and ergonomics in line with European standards and sets new benchmarks in terms of compactness and hydraulic performance. With the EJC 112i, Jungheinrich is presenting a competitive truck in the highly competitive entry-level segment and at the same time offering all the advantages of a leading solution provider for intralogistics.
With the EJC 112i, the user benefits not only from the proven intuitive operating concept, but also from new features and options such as floor spot, panoramic rear-view mirror and load weight display. These make daily work easier, increase safety and enable even inexperienced users without prior logistical knowledge to operate and understand the truck. This means that even less experienced temporary staff can perform a wide range of tasks, which is particularly useful in the retail and in small and medium-sized businesses.

Customer benefits

The EJC 112i’s compact dimensions allow optimum use of space in warehouses and production halls. With an impressively small turning radius, the EJC 112i can easily manoeuvre in narrow aisles and warehouse areas without blocking valuable space or damaging goods. Customers with very limited space can even choose a second vehicle variant with a smaller battery and an additional 50 mm shorter dimensions.
The low overall height provides a good view of the forks, load and surroundings. This helps precise and fast load handling and allows operators of all heights to keep an eye on the surroundings at the same time, which is particularly valuable in the retail sector.
Increased residual capacity optimises space utilisation and minimises floor space requirements by allowing heavier loads to be stored in higher racks. The exceptionally high lifting and lowering speeds enable more efficient workflows, such as by reducing unnecessary waiting times during lifting and increasing throughput.
In addition, the EJC 112i frees the operator from time-consuming battery changes and helps to reduce operating costs. Battery capacity and charger output can be selected to suit individual operating conditions. The built-in charger allows convenient recharging from any mains socket.

Test report

With its compact design and outstanding performance, the EJC 112i sets a new standard in the entry-level segment and clearly stands out from the competition. Especially in small warehouses with narrow aisles, the high residual capacity enables optimum space utilization. Together with the small turning radius and user-friendly operation, it is clear why the EJC 112i makes day-to-day work easier for every operator.

The EJC 112i is more than just a further development of its predecessor, but offers an even more compact and maneuverable solution thanks to the integrated lithium-ion battery. When designing the new truck, Jungheinrich paid particular attention to the high energy density of lithium-ion technology, which makes it possible to store the same amount of energy in significantly smaller modules. This not only saves space, but also opens up new possibilities in terms of truck size.

The result is immediately recognizable: the EJC 112i has a smaller L2 size, offers a good view of the forks and has a low overall height. The impressively small turning circle makes maneuvering effortless, even in tight spaces. To compensate for the shorter length and lower weight of the lithium-ion battery, the truck has been completely redesigned. The mast profiles have been widened in the side view and the steering arms have been reinforced. The entire chassis has been balanced to ensure optimum force equalization.

The result is immediately noticeable when the load is lifted. At the maximum 1200 kg, the EJC 112i does not move and effortlessly lifts up to 2900 mm. Up to 3,800 mm, the truck picks up 830 kg and at the maximum lift height of 4700 mm, 650 kg still remains. And all this with a load distance of 600 mm. The increased residual load capacity of the EJC 112i optimizes space utilizations and minimizes space requirements, as heavier loads can be stored on higher shelves. The IFOY test confirms that the EJC 112i offers the best performance in its class, with exceptionally high lifting and lowering speeds and efficient performance.

Thanks to the more powerful pump motor and a better balance between pump power and lifting cylinder, the new truck lifts significantly faster than its predecessor. The lifting speeds are well above the average in this class. The driving and acceleration speeds have remained almost the same. In the most powerful setting P3, the EJC 112i achieves a comfortable, even speed of 6.05 km/h with and without a load.

The battery capacity and power of the charger can be adapted to the individual operating conditions and specific energy requirements. The built-in charger can also be easily charged at any socket.

IFOY Verdict

The EJC 112i series from Jungheinrich sets new standards in the entry-level segment for pedestrian stackers. At the heart of the design is the integrated lithium-ion battery, which results in an even more compact and maneuverable truck with unparalleled residual capacity and outstanding performance. The truck offers noticeably good stability and operates smoothly and predictably.
