Fast, flexible loading from Transdek
Transdek UK’s loading solutions portfolio includes the Universal Dock Door Lift (UDD), a rugged, modular loading bay system which can easily accommodate any vehicle type including vans, LGVs and both single and double decked HGVs.
The company has recently launched a promotional video which illustrates the unique features and benefits that the lift offers, viewable via: youtube.com/@Transdek
“Designed to be suitable for both new build warehousing or as a retrofit to existing sites, the UDD is supplied as a pre-clad, pre-tested surface mounted unit that can be fitted directly to the warehouse or yard floor in as little as one day as no civil works are required,” said Transdek.
“The modular nature of the unit also makes it easy to relocate if required, providing the ultimate in flexibility and enabling savings to be made on dilapidation or re-purchase costs.
“Offering fast loading for rapid vehicle turnaround, typically five times faster than tail lift operations and twice as fast as loading with a scissor lift, the loading platform can be easily and quickly adjusted to accommodate all vehicle types.
“Equipped with integrated dock bumpers and self-levelling legs to cater for the variety of yard gradients typically experience on the loading bay yards, it has a unique tail lift pocket design that allows for tail lifts to be stowed under the loading platform: something that is simply impossible to achieve with comparative scissor lift machines.”
With operator safety being paramount the UDD provides an enclosed, weatherproof environment that meets all UK and EU safety regulations, adds Transdek. The lift is fitted with twin interlocked gates that are electrically and mechanically interlocked ensuring a safe working environment with additional safety features including traffic lights, loading lamps, interior lights, and a segregated personnel walkway
With a selection of lift sizes from 6 to 13 pallets, the UDD is available with a range of accessories including insulated cladding for temperature-controlled operations, together with inflatable and adjustable dock shelters.
