EP XNA121 autonomous narrow-aisle stacker

Autonomous storage in tight aisles

The XNA121 is EP's autonomous stacker for dense racking. Its sideways forks pick up and put away pallets without turning, so it works in narrow aisles and stacks up to 8.5 m. EP quotes an aisle of 1.65 m and a turning circle under 1.8 m.

It navigates with 3D SLAM combined with QR codes, which EP says gives millimetre-level positioning at the rack, and a 3D camera lines up each load. Single and double-sided fork versions are available.

What makes the XNA121 work

  • Narrow aisles

    Sideways forks mean it never turns in the aisle.

  • Up to 8.5 m

    Automates put-away and retrieval in high racking.

  • Both sides

    The double-sided version stacks to either side of the aisle.

  • SLAM and QR

    Map-based navigation with QR codes for precise positioning at the rack.

  • Lines up the load

    A 3D camera aligns the forks with each pallet.

  • Awkward pallets

    A strong chassis handles non-standard and non-square pallets.

EP XNA121 questions

Anything else, call us on 01 5267 411 (ROI) or 028 3833 7038 (NI).

Does the XNA121 need special racking?

It works in narrow-aisle racking. EP quotes 1.65 m aisles, and its spec table gives 1,844 mm for one-sided loading, so we measure your aisles, beam heights and floor at the survey.

What is the difference between the XNA121 and the XQE122?

The XQE122 is a reach stacker for block stacks and racking up to 4.5 m. The XNA121 is for narrow aisles and higher racking, up to 8.5 m.

How much does the XNA121 cost?

We price it for your site after the survey. You can buy it, or hire it on a 12-month contract with servicing included.
