Hydraulic Lifting Transition Platform

핵심 사항 -

Core Function: Hydraulic lifting transition platform (load capacity: 1 ton, size: 3m×2m) connects vertical conveyors and trucks, with adjustable height (0.7–3m), replacing traditional flip-plate actions to improve loading/unloading efficiency.
Flexible Compatibility: Dual-side modular flip plates (hydraulic flip plate on the conveyor side: 3m width; manual flip plates on the truck side: 2×1m×1m) adapt to varying truck sizes and gaps.
Safety Design: Full perimeter guardrails cover flip-plate gaps to prevent falls; allows safe operator movement on the platform.
Process Optimization: Enables temporary cargo storage on the platform, reducing vertical conveyor idle time and enabling continuous operations.

Project Overview

Founded in 1989, this client is a global leader in power sports vehicle manufacturing. They focus on all-terrain vehicles, motorcycles, electric scooters, and engines, combining cutting-edge research and development with ISO-certified manufacturing processes. Their products, including models validated by the Dakar Rally, serve the recreational, agricultural, and military markets in over 100 countries. They are known for their innovative engines that meet Euro 5/EPA standards and are driving future mobility through hybrid and electric solutions.

The perfect solution for seamless transitions between lifting machines and trucks! With a robust 1-ton load capacity and adjustable heights ranging from 0.7 to 3 meters, this versatile platform ensures smooth loading and unloading operations. It features a hydraulic flip board and manual flip board for easy dock-to-lift connections, while safety guardrails protect workers from falls. Designed for efficiency, it offers both mobility and stability, making it the ideal tool for safe, fast, and effective warehouse and logistics operations.

도전 과제

Height Matching: Large truck height discrepancies (0–7.5m) require precise platform adjustments for seamless docking.

Operational Complexity: Frequent flip-plate actions (twice per vehicle) increase time and mechanical wear.

Safety Risks: Manual vehicle handling poses fall hazards, necessitating full gap protection.

Efficiency Bottlenecks: Vertical conveyors must wait for truck loading completion, delaying logistics cycles.

솔루션

Hydraulic Height Adjustment:

Hydraulic lifting system (0.7–3m range) with encoder-based height customization ensures precise alignment with truck beds.

Modular Flip Plates:

Automated hydraulic flip plate (3m width) for conveyor docking + manual flip plates (2×1m×1m) for truck adaptability, minimizing flip actions.

Comprehensive Safety:

Anti-slip surfaces, guardrails, and access ladders ensure operator safety during platform operations.

Workflow Streamlining:

Platform acts as a temporary buffer zone, allowing vertical conveyors to return immediately for reloading, boosting throughput.

장점

Efficiency Gains: Eliminates repeated flipping, reducing loading time by 20%; enables continuous operations.
Enhanced Safety: Guardrails and anti-fall designs align with industrial safety standards.
Broad Compatibility: Adapts to trucks with 0–7.5m bed heights and diverse cargo scenarios.
Durability & Cost-Effectiveness: Hydraulic system ensures reliability with lower maintenance costs vs. mechanical flip mechanisms.
Human-Machine Synergy: Safe manual operations on the platform complement automated vertical conveyors for semi-autonomous logistics.
