The full name of the stacker telescopic fork is the stacker bidirectional automatic telescopic fork, abbreviated as: stacker fork, telescopic fork, etc., also known as: telescopic pallet fork, transfer fork, etc. It is a material transfer mechanism, often used in conjunction with stackers or lifting mechanisms, capable of easily moving materials from one side to the other. It comes in various structural types, such as mechanical structures including: single extension structure [single deep structure], double extension structure [double deep structure], etc. In terms of transmission structures, there are: rack and chain combination transmission structure, pure gear transmission structure, synchronous belt transmission structure, etc. It also has various application environments, such as high-temperature environments for furnace operations, low-temperature environments for cold storage operations, fully enclosed dust-free environments [also known as: class 10,000 clean environment, class 100 clean environment], etc. Different application environments require different types of materials, such as high-strength carbon steel, waterproof, rust-proof, corrosion-resistant, high and low-temperature resistant stainless steel, and high-strength, lightweight aluminum alloy materials!
The single extension structure [or single deep structure] refers to the fork's travel being able to extend [or reach] into one storage location. Its transfer distance is slightly larger than the fork body's own length, and it consists of one fixed fork body and two movable [telescopic] fork bodies, making three fork bodies in total. The double extension structure [double deep structure] refers to the fork's travel being able to extend [or reach] into two storage locations, either front and back or inner and outer layers [i.e., two storage locations with different transfer distances]. It consists of one fixed fork body and three movable [or telescopic] fork bodies, with a relatively large transfer distance, almost more than twice the length of the fork body itself!
The rack and chain combination transmission structure is a traditional and widely used transmission structure. It is relatively simple in design and easy to maintain. However, since the chain may stretch after prolonged use, frequent adjustments to the tensioning system are required, leading to significant deviations in operational accuracy. Its repeat positioning accuracy is generally around ±2–3mm. On the other hand, the pure gear transmission structure, although slightly more complex to manufacture, offers higher precision, with repeat positioning accuracy reaching about ±0.5mm, making it a high-precision transfer mechanism!
Regardless of the structure or type, it can operate either as a single fork arm for independent transfer or as two fork arms combined, operating jointly or synchronously via a coupling. The single fork arm independent operation is abbreviated as: single-row [or single-finger] type, while the two fork arms combined operation is abbreviated as: double-row [or double-finger] type. The single-row [or single-finger] type is mainly used for transferring materials with smaller volume and lighter weight, while the double-row [or double-finger] type is used for transferring materials with larger volume and heavier weight!
The high-precision pure gear transmission stacker telescopic fork can be designed with a wide body and wide load surface, a narrow cross-section [narrow load surface], or a narrow body with a wide load surface, among other designs. It offers diverse designs and a compact structure, not only providing high repeat positioning accuracy but also strong load capacity. Both longitudinal and lateral deviations are within expected ranges, and its service life far exceeds that of other structural types!
