After discussing requirements with our Becky in the sales team, Armo quoted for the supply and installation of three pit mounted dock levellers, dock buffers and dock plates, and cushion seals. We were happy to receive the order not long after and get this new installation project underway in North Yorkshire.
Armo supplied three Swing Lip Dock Levellers model ARSL in standard size, so we were able to supply these from stock in our Telford warehouse. Standard swing lip dock levellers are 2000mm x 2500mm, needing a minimum pit depth of 610mm. Load Capacity for the dock levellers reaches 6 tonne single axle load, strictly in accordance with the British standard for dock levellers BS EN 1398.
To complete the loading bay and compliment the dock leveller, the order also included for three Cushion Seals model ARCS. Supplied and installed with the basic specification opening size of 2400mm width x 2400mm height and overall width of 3000mm x overall height of 3300mm. The projection of the cushion seal was 300mm. This heavy duty cushion seal will be suitable for accommodating vehicles of similar heights whilst as the same time providing an optimum seal.
Darrell Hopwood, Managing Director, said of this project: “Armo are able to provide food manufacturers and distributors with BS EN standard products, helping our clients meet their health and safety requirements. This project at a food processing plant was perfect for us to use stock standard sized products and therefore provide a quick and speedy turn around for the client.”
