The scissor lift table is one of the more basic types that you are able to purchase. The main purpose of these is to provide workers with a way to easily lift and carry large items. They are always at the right height level that will keep people from having to bend over to lift things. This helps to reduce injuries and to increase the amount of work they are able to do each day.
These types of lifts can cost anywhere between $100 to $3,000. The price will always vary depending on how large the lift is and what features it has. The most common of these are the lift and tilt tables.
Scissor Lift And Tilt Tables
This is a type of double scissor lift table that is able to both lift and tilt any object it is holding to a 45 degree angle. It is built with a restraining chain that is around 12” high and is used to keep the load steady while tilting. The steel cradle is also 12” high and is designed to open from three distinct sides for easy loading and unloading.
The way in which the tilt is designed helps to keep the load as close to the center of the table as possible. This will increase the safety of carrying it and will minimize the necessary space requirements. The lifts can be powered using the electric motor or hydraulics. On the hydraulic models a brass velocity fuse is built into the cylinder. This will prevent the table from dropping if the hydraulics fail.
The frame of the scissor lift table is made with industrial quality materials that make it both durable and strong to hold between 330 to 2,500 pounds. The engine has a 3,000 PSI component rating and 2 HP. These two features give you maximum torque to extend the life of the motor and make it easier to maneuver.
