Mobile dock lifts for roll cages February 1st 2007 Custom-built mobile dock lifts from Transdek are providing Clares Merchandise Handling Equipment with a versatile, cost-effective means of unloading new roll cages from trailers without tail-lifts at two Tesco distribution centres. Roll cages are delivered to the centres without loading docks, so equipment is needed to lower deliveries to ground level. However, the equipment must not obstruct Tesco's own delivery activities. To meet these requirements, Transdek has manufactured two mobile lifting platforms with a load capacity of 2.25t that can be wheeled away easily when not in use. Standard equipment was re-designed to give an extended lift height of 2.1m. Working platforms of 2090 by 3100mm increase the number of cages that can be unloaded at a time. Ramps leading on to the platforms were also elongated for easier access. More articles from Transdek UK Ltd: |
