Dock Levelers

Home » Industrial Equipment » Dock Levelers

A bridge between your dock and trucks

Your dock levelers must be properly specified and fitted to ensure a smooth and safe transition from your warehouse floor to the truck bed. Thus, reducing the impact on your lift equipment and people. The length of the deck and lip will depend on the height differential between the truck bed and the warehouse floor. The required capacity of your dock leveler will depend on load weights, loading equipment style, and goods weight as well as traffic volume over the dock.

Many factors affect which product best suits a facility’s needs. Some of these include the equipment activation, deck size, structural weight capacity, lip length and forklift traffic cycle. To ensure you achieve the lowest lifetime cost of ownership, all loading dock equipment must be installed correctly. Call your cam|industrial representative for a complete in-depth review of your logistic needs and to provide the best solution.
