Tilting Bridge Plate Dock Levellers

Tilting bridge plate dock levellers are one of the most widely used and reliable solutions in material handling, designed to bridge the height difference between vehicles and loading ramps with varying platform heights. This ensures fast and safe movement of goods between warehouses and transport vehicles.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Compliance with Standards: These dock levellers fully comply with the EN 1398 European standard, which defines the safety requirements for loading equipment.
• Bridge Plate Design: The 400 mm protruding bridge plate ensures a secure and stable connection to the vehicle platform, minimizing the risk of accidents, instability, and potential damage to goods or vehicles during loading.
• Step-Free Connection: The design of the dock leveller creates a seamless, level connection, facilitating smooth movement of forklifts and other handling equipment.
• Installation Options: The equipment can be integrated into a concrete foundation with a built-in installation frame or installed into a prefabricated GD pit, offering flexible adaptation to various architectural conditions.
• Load Capacity: The standard load capacity is 6 tons, but custom designs with capacities of up to 18 tons are also available, ensuring adequate capacity for different loading needs.

Optional Accessories and Custom Designs:

• Gap Sealing Installation: Gap seals reduce heat loss and prevent dust and other contaminants from entering the warehouse, contributing to a clean and energy-efficient working environment.
• Enclosure-mounted Design: This version allows the dock leveller to be installed as a standalone unit, offering a flexible solution for locations where the building’s structure does not allow for traditional installation.
• Split Bridge Plate: The split bridge plate design allows loading of smaller vehicles, such as light trucks, as the plate size and mobility are better suited to these vehicle types.
• Heat-insulated Version: Insulated dock levellers are ideal for use between refrierated warehouses and refrigerated trucks, as they minimize temperature fluctuations and energy loss.
• 500 mm Bridge Plate: The 500 mm extended bridge plate is suitable for bridging larger distances, increasing the flexibility and efficiency of loading processes.
• Color Options: Dock levellers are typically available in RAL 5010 color, but can also be ordered in any RAL color to match the client’s branding or the building’s color scheme.

Applications: Tilting bridge plate dock levellers are widely used across various industries, including logistics, warehousing, food industry, and manufacturing plants. Their versatility and customizability make them an ideal solution for different loading challenges, ensuring fast, safe, and efficient goods handling.
