Dock Leveler External

USHA had introduced Hydraulically operated Dock Leveler External which includes economically priced Hydraulically Dock leveler with manually operated lip and the Deluxe model with Hydraulically operated lip. In the design the dock has a travel of 300 mm above & 300mm below horizontal level. The standard platform sizes are 2150 X 1800mm, 2150mm X 2100mm, 2750mm X 1800mm, 2750mm X 2100mm.
USHA self supporting Dock leveler significantly improves your transport efficiency. It bridges the gap between loading platform & the different heights of lorries. A pit is made in loading Dock in which Dock leveler fits. Various loading capacities from 3 tons to 20 tons are available. Dock leveler with 10 ton capacity can facilitate quick loading operations by allowing forklifts with materials to travel directly from loading platform into lorries / Containers.
The lifting operation is by Single or Double circuit 415 V AC Hydraulic power pack fitted inside the leveler. The controls are by Up/Down push button Pendant.

While specifying Dock leveler care should be taken regarding max gradient (slope) of the Dock leveler. This should be suitable for the equipment e.g. Hydraulic stacker which is to be used for loading
operation. Where gradients are not suitable too high, scissor type dock lifts will be more suitable
