During the pandemic Armo are proud to be supporting another leading UK food manufacturer which is still privately owned and has over 36 manufacturing sites in the UK. They have been working hard feeding the nation during this exceptional time.

Armo are proud to be on call to service and maintain their loading operation and have been delighted to upgrade 3 of their loading bays with Armo bespoke loading dock equipment, designed and manufactured by Armo.  On this occasion we have upgraded 3 loading bays and installed Armo Swing Lip Dock levellers, please see more details below.

Armo Swing Lip Dock Leveller Model ARSL

They are robust in design and construction; the platforms are made from 6/8 mm tear plate steel, supported by a minimum of 8 longitudinal beams to strengthen the deck but still allowing it to twist through its length to cater for vehicles that are out of level. The ARSL is in full compliance with BS EN 1398.

Operation – The push button is held depressed, whereupon the platform will rise to the top of its range and the lip will swing out under control (the operator can constantly monitor the position of the platform and lip while keeping the button depressed). With the lip extended the button is released and the platform and lip will lower until the vehicle body is sensed, upon which the platform will follow fluctuation in height during loading/unloading. To park the dock leveller the button is held depressed, causing the leveller to rise and retract the lip. At this point releasing the button will allow the leveller to “park” and the leveller will return to its parked position.
