The Top 5 Reasons to Consider Using a Scissor Lift Trolley
June 26, 2024
A scissor lift table is a lifting device, designed to raise or lower loads such as pallets, roll-cages and people. They are most commonly used in factories and warehouses, but their adaptability means that they can easily be used for material handling in a wide range of environments, including manufacturing, retail, packaging, logistics, production lines, healthcare, construction and the food industry.
They are hydraulically powered, which allows them to raise heavy-duty loads whilst maintaining their durability and robustness. Scissor lift tables can help to increase the overall efficiency in a workplace while providing safer conditions for workers who are tasked with the lifting of heavy objects.
Here are four ways that scissor lift tables are most commonly used.
1) Mezzanine Goods Lifts for High Areas
Scissor lift platforms play a key role in making warehouse storage more efficient by facilitating the loading and unloading of goods onto mezzanine floors. Goods can travel between two fixed levels at the touch of a button moving loads swiftly and safely. The lift can be positioned against the mezzanine or pass through it. Each scissor lift platform’s size and configuration are designed to suit your requirements. Maximum capacity is 25,000Kg.
2) Ergonomics for Assembly Lines
In manufacturing and assembly plants, accuracy is the name of the game. Hydraulic scissor lift tables contribute to smooth assembly and production processes by providing stable platforms for assembly workstations or machinery. Workers can easily adjust the height of the lift table to match the needs of different tasks – be it positioning components for assembly, stacking and de-stacking applications or aligning parts during manufacturing processes.
3) Loading Bay Lifts for Warehouses and Retail
The safest and most efficient method of loading commercial vehicles. Roll cages and palletised loads can be handled with ease with a choice of Edmolift in-dock, front-of-dock, open-yard and low-profile pit-free solutions. Loading dock lifts made to your requirements: size, configuration and capacity. Our loading bay lifts will be supplied and installed by our team of experts, barriers, gates, interlocks, buffer and bridge plates are included.
4) Production Line Efficiency
Hydraulic lift tables serve multiple purposes in the production space to increase efficiency, prevent the potential for injuries and reduce absenteeism. Edmolift scissor lift tables provide an ergonomic solution to positioning workloads to the correct level no matter what height or build the operator is for shift-long comfort. A good example of this is pallet stacking at the end of a production line. The top of the load remains at the same, ergonomic height, as layers of load build up, the scissor lift platform will lower.
