Shanghai Sinolift Equipment Co., Ltd. has expanded its specialist material handling portfolio with the launch of the HL20SS and HL30SS customized stainless steel scale pallet trucks with built-in thermal printers. Developed for industries where hygiene, corrosion resistance, traceable weighing, and operational speed are all critical, the new models combine heavy-duty pallet movement with accurate mobile weighing and immediate ticket printing in a single machine.
In many receiving, production, cold-chain, and dispatch operations, a pallet must be moved to a fixed scale, positioned, weighed, recorded, moved away again, and then entered into a separate documentation process. Every extra transfer adds time, labor, congestion, and the possibility of recording errors. In wet or hygiene-sensitive facilities, conventional weighing equipment may also be difficult to clean thoroughly or may deteriorate when exposed to water, chemicals, salt, and repeated washdown routines.
The new SINOLIFT HL20SS and HL30SS models are designed to simplify that process. Operators can collect a pallet, weigh it while it is on the truck, print a physical weight record, and continue transporting the load without creating a separate weighing station. This integrated workflow is particularly valuable in busy environments where incoming materials, production batches, finished goods, or shipping loads must be checked repeatedly throughout the day.
The HL20SS offers a rated load capacity of 2,000 kg, while the HL30SS increases capacity to 3,000 kg. Both models provide a minimum weighing capacity of 10 kg and are available with fork lengths of 1,150 or 1,220 mm and overall fork widths of 550 or 685 mm. These options allow customers to match the truck to common pallet formats and site-specific handling requirements.
Sinolift developed the models as customized stainless steel adaptations based on a proven hand pallet truck platform. The result retains the familiar maneuverability and straightforward hydraulic operation of a manual pallet truck while adding a precision weighing system, waterproof sensing components, a high-visibility indicator, and a built-in printer. For operators, this means less equipment to manage and fewer steps between receiving, inspection, movement, and documentation.
The washdown-ready stainless steel structure is engineered for wet, damp, hygienic, and corrosive environments. Its corrosion-resistant design supports frequent cleaning and helps prevent rust-related deterioration in food, beverage, pharmaceutical, chemical, and cold-storage operations.
The truck is designed with an IP67-rated construction, supporting regular washdown and cleaning routines. This makes it suitable for facilities where equipment must be kept clean between shifts, production batches, or hygiene zones.
Waterproof load cells provide dependable weighing performance in demanding industrial conditions. Their protected design supports stable operation where moisture, condensation, and frequent cleaning would challenge ordinary scale systems.
A four-shear-beam load-cell configuration improves stability and helps maintain accurate readings during mobile weighing. The design is especially useful when operators need reliable results during everyday warehouse or production-floor handling.
The integrated printer produces weight tickets directly at the point of handling. Operators can generate records for receiving, shipping, batch control, inventory checks, and internal logistics without returning to a separate workstation.
Functions include automatic tare, zero setting, lb/kg unit switching, counting mode, weight accumulation, and sequence-number totalizing. These capabilities support both simple weighing and more structured material tracking workflows.
A clear LED/LCD display can be read from different viewing positions, while full-rubber numeric and function keys provide practical operation in industrial environments. The interface is designed for fast routine use by warehouse and production personnel.
A rechargeable DC 6V/5Ah battery supports up to 100 hours of continuous use. Programmable sleep mode and automatic power-off help conserve energy during breaks, shift changes, and periods of inactivity.
The hydraulic pump assembly is designed for smooth lifting and controlled lowering, while polyurethane wheels support quiet, stable movement. A practical steering geometry helps operators maneuver loaded pallets through production aisles and storage zones.
Two built-in storage boxes provide convenient space for manuals, tools, labels, or shipping documents, keeping frequently used items close to the operator during receiving, inspection, and dispatch tasks.
The value of the HL20SS and HL30SS is not limited to combining several functions into one product. Their stainless steel construction and protected weighing components allow the trucks to operate in facilities that cannot rely on standard painted equipment. In food processing, brewing, pharmaceutical production, and cold storage, equipment may be exposed to moisture, ingredients, cleaning agents, and condensation every day. A corrosion-resistant, washable platform helps operators maintain cleaner work areas and reduces the risk of surface degradation.
The built-in printing function also improves traceability. Weight tickets can accompany a pallet, production batch, delivery, or shipment, providing a physical record at the exact point where the load is checked. For businesses that still rely on paper-based receiving or dispatch documents, this can reduce transcription steps and improve consistency. In mixed digital and paper workflows, the printed record can act as a quick verification document before information is entered into warehouse or production systems.
Both models use durable polyurethane wheels, with two rear steering wheels measuring 180 x 50 mm and four front load rollers measuring 80 x 70 mm. The HL20SS has a self-weight of 122 kg, while the higher-capacity HL30SS weighs 135 kg. Both models have a lowered fork height of 95 mm and a maximum lift height of 115 mm, providing the low-profile entry and short lifting range required for standard pallet transportation.
The HL20SS and HL30SS are intended for operations where accurate weighing must be combined with dependable pallet movement and where equipment may be exposed to water, humidity, corrosive substances, or strict sanitation requirements.
Weigh ingredients, packaging materials, work-in-process goods, and finished pallets while supporting frequent washdown and hygienic production routines.
Handle raw materials, containers, and packaged products in humid production areas while printing weight records at the point of movement.
Support controlled material movement, batch verification, and cleaner handling workflows in environments with demanding sanitation standards.
Provide corrosion-resistant pallet handling and mobile weighing in areas where ordinary painted equipment may be affected by moisture or chemical exposure.
Move and verify palletized goods in refrigerated or condensation-prone areas where stainless steel construction offers a practical durability advantage.
Check cargo weight, print tickets, and transport pallets in one continuous process, helping reduce queues around fixed scales and documentation stations.
