Loading bays and associated equipment are essential to the efficient and safe receiving or transportation of goods. BID Group Ltd can provide bespoke solutions for all types of warehouse and distribution facilities.What are Dock Levellers?
A dock leveller is a piece of equipment that effectively bridges any height and distance discrepancies between vehicles and the warehouse floor.
Dock levellers enable the load to be transferred in a single horizontal movement, this cuts down loading and unloading times, whilst providing a safe operation.
Safe and durable even when confronted with heavy traffic, dock levellers offer extreme ease of use with a fully automated system controlled with just the push of a button.
Dock levellers can be further sub categorised into hinged lip and telescopic lip dock levellers, and provide the most efficient and reliable operational performance.
BID Group design and manufacture bespoke dock levellers, available with a hinged or telescopic lip, and a 6000 kg or 1000 kg capacity.
Hinged Lip Dock Levellers
A hinged lip dock leveller operates with an easy to use bridge function to compensate for the variances in height of vehicle beds and loading bays. At the push of a button operators can swiftly and safely adjust the height of the deck, extend the lip and attach onto the vehicle bed.
Telescopic Lip Dock Levellers
A telescopic lip dock leveller provides an accurate and flexible bridge for vehicle loading/unloading. The telescopic leveller is supplied with an auto park function, and can be returned to its starting position with the push of a button.
Amid the loading or unloading process, both a hinged lip and telescopic dock leveller ‘float’ which allows the deck to raise or lower with the vehicle’s suspension to provide stability and reduce loading/unloading times.
