We are pleased to be working with a famous fourth generation family cheese maker, that care about the environment and where their milk comes from. They are still making cheese by hand and keeping some of the old traditions alive.

On this project we have upgraded their loading bays by replacing their existing dock levellers with Armo Swing Lip Dock Levellers ensuring they have a reliable and safe loading and unloading environment.

Armo Swing Lip Dock Levellers – Model ARSL

Armo dock levellers are robust in design and construction; the platforms are made from 6/8 mm tear plate steel, supported by a minimum of eight 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.

The ARSL is in full compliance with BS EN 1398.
