The “lifting table” is a fixed lifting device, hydraulically operating. It is shaped to bear evenly or partially distributed loads as well as concentrated and on the move, e.g forklifts. It is made of an upper frame, a lower frame and a scissor system, which works thanks to one or more cylinders.

The upper frame is realized with a covering of smooth or diamond plate; it accomplishes a vertical movement, parallel to the floor.  The scissor is hinged at one edge of the upper and lower frames. The other edge of the scissor runs on wheels in suitable horizontal rails obtained into the upper and in the lower frames.

Safety (from Latin “sine cura“: without worrying) can be defined as “the knowledge that the evolution of a system will not produce unwanted circumstances”. In simpler terms: knowing that what we are going to do will not cause damages. The total safety is available only when there is no danger. In absolute terms, it is a concept hard to report in real life, even if the application of the safety rules makes harder the occurrence of harmful events or accidents, improving instead the quality of life. (Wikipedia, def. “safety”).

What is a lifting table? Simply, it is an hydraulic table, which raises and lowers at a required height; specifically designed according to the customer needs, with a wide range of possibilities to lift loads, having various stroke/excursion and dimensions. It follows that there are many application fields, among which the logistics, the connection between two floors, production lines, automatic systems inter-locking, car-lift, up to more specific and particular applications: we space from the lowering of the coffins at the morgue to raising dancer of the classical Ballet or theater sets.

A lifting table suitable for 2400 cycles per day? With Armo is possible!

150 cycles per hour, it means 2400 cycles per day: a challenge for our technical dept. and to which Armo has replied: here we are! The lifting tables have been realized with special anti-wearing components, high-duty bushes, limit switches on adjustable rails, reinforced sliding guides. The tests, all positives, have allowed delivering the first machines to the customer. This one was in the end very satisfied of the supply and ready to trust Armo once more as well as its lifting tables for a future cooperation.
