Challenge
- Platform sagging causing operational delays and safety concerns
- Repeated leveling device failures from their previous supplier
- High-capacity requirements (up to 10 tons) for moving finished polymer products
- Indoor pit installation with specific spatial constraints
- Integration needs with existing fire-rated doors and building infrastructure
Key Features
- Heavy-Duty Construction
- 150H-200H steel guide rails for maximum stability
- Reinforced platform frame using 160×80×5mm to 200×100×8mm rectangular tubing
- 8-10mm diamond plate flooring for superior load distribution and durability
- Heavy-duty lifting chains (1644/2044 plate chain, 4 pieces per unit)
- Advanced Safety Systems
- Overload protection – Prevents operation beyond rated capacity
- Anti-fall protection – Secondary safety mechanism
- Diagonal balance protection – Ensures stable platform operation
- Explosion-proof hydraulic cylinders with built-in safety valves
- Automatic leveling system – Heavy-duty components prevent platform sagging
- Smart Integration
- Hard-surface rapid roller shutters (2 per unit) installed below fire doors
- 2-speed hydraulic system for efficient operation
- Automatic leveling at each stop for precise loading/unloading
- Powder-coated medium gray finish with safety warning labels
- Custom Engineering Solutions
- Split platform design for easier installation in existing facilities
- Three-sided diamond mesh enclosure for operator safety
- Modular rail shipping for on-site assembly
- Custom positioning to accommodate existing building structure
Solutions
Corrosion & Environmental Protection
- All steel components (H-beam guides, rectangular tube frames) coated with high-adhesion anti-corrosion coating, meeting C4 protection standard
- Electrical system sealed to IP66 for resistance to dust, moisture, and chemicals
- Medium grey main body with yellow safety enclosure for high visibility
- External mesh enclosure frame spacing < 500 mm to prevent personnel access while allowing ventilation
Precision Leveling for AGV Docking
- Precision leveling control using proximity switches and encoders
- Platform leveling tolerance ≤ ±1 cm
- Eliminates steps or gaps between platform and floor
- Ensures smooth AGV entry and exit without blockage or damage
Non-Standard Structural Design for Site Constraints
- Platform net size 1700 × 1800 mm
- 1700 mm drive-through access for straight-line AGV movement
- Custom L-shaped steel platform on the second floor
- Size: 550 × 2000 mm + 500 × 2300 mm
- Expands second-floor robot operating area without building modification
High-Efficiency Lifting & Safety System
- Two-speed lifting mechanism for efficient lifting over 4.5 m travel height
- High-speed roll-up doors with anti-pinch strips and safety light curtains
- Emergency stop buttons, overload alarm lights, and operation indicator lights
- Modbus-TCP communication enabling AGV lift calling, door status check, and automated floor transfer
