One of today’s most essential pieces of
material handling equipment designed for industrial settings is the tilt and lift table. Operating very much as its name suggests, the tilt and lift table raises materials to the proper work height and then tilts them to the optimum angle for the employee to work on them with maximum efficiency and with no injury-causing strain being placed on his body. Please take a few moments to read the following brief article to learn about the different types of
tilt and lift tables available today and how they can, in several important ways, increase the cost-effectiveness and efficiency of your company.
Lift and tilt tables are one of the most vital dual-function pieces of
material handling equipment used in today’s industrial settings. One of these functions, that of bringing the work to the level at which the worker can best observe what he’s working with, clearly helps to increase employee productivity. The second lift and
tilt table function, that of also tilting the work and enabling materials to be placed at the optimum ergonomic position relative to the employee, significantly reduces worker fatigue and injury risk caused by repetitive stretching and bending – factors that can significantly lower a company’s insurance costs and incidences of worker’s compensation claims. Both functions of
industrial lift tables are especially effective when used by assembly line workers and machine operators. Lift and tilt tables also enable much easier loading of pallets, boxes, crates, or boxes by tilting them toward the worker at up to 90-degree angles.
In addition to dramatically reducing repetitive stress injuries,
hydraulic tilt tables also lower the risk of sudden worker injury via their capability to lift heavy loads that would be unadvisable for a worker to attempt to raise manually. In fact, some
tilt table models feature lifting capacities of up to 10,000 pounds. However, if a lesser-capacity table is most prudent for your facility’s requirements, models also are available with capacities ranging from 1,000 to 6,000 pounds. The various types of lift and tilt tables available today are powered by several different means. A number of the top
industrial lift table models are powered by motors possessing two or more horsepower.
Many of these lift and tilt tables are designed for operate independently of other equipment. There are other lift and
tilt table models, however, which are designed to function optimally in conjunction with other
material handling equipment commonly utilized in industrial settings. Bench top tilters, for example, are designed to be attached to workbenches, tabletops, or portable lift tables. Ground tilters work optimally in conjunction with a hand pallet truck in applications that call for the loading or unloading of materials. Lift table models that are similar in function but often known by different names include air corner tilters, efficiency master tilt tables, zero lift and tilt tables, and basket tilters. The tilt master straddle tilter is one of several models that are designed to move loads from one work area to another without the use of a fork truck. It is the customer’s responsibility to verify correctness of fit for applications.
