Dock leveller is for solving the problem of bridging the gap between a truck and the dock or warehouse floor.In a loading dock,not all trucks are the same height, and the height of the trailer floor within a truck can vary according to how heavily the truck is laden. Thus there is not only a gap to bridge but a height difference to overcome. 

Dock leveller main board is made of corrugated iron of 8 mm thick, lip board is made of corrugated iron of 14 mm thick.so that,it could reach the loading capacity more than 10Tons.

To install a platform one should prepare a place, that is a pit- a dimple in the concrete floor of the warehouse, where platform should be installed in.

There are two models of dock levellers:

1,hydraulic dock leveller with hinged lip

2,hydraulic dock leveller with telescopic lip

Dock leveller with hinged lip is used for easy access of the forklift to the truck and dock during the loading / unloading process.

After dock leveller activation the main board rising to the highest position (the main hydraulic cylinder is activate).

Then with the help of small hydraulic cylinder the lip turn to the top position.

The platform moves down to truck bed.

After loading/unloading process is finished,just press the button on the control box,the dock leveller will back to its original status.
