Compact lift tables Materials-handling-equipment maker Air Technical Industries provides a variety of lift tables, also known as scissor lift tables or lift platforms. Used to lower or raise loads, they’re designed to enhance safety and efficiency across industries. Different heights and load capacities are available.
What’s new? Vertical Column Lift Tables, operated by a screw actuator. They are precise enough for sensitive applications such as positioning of laboratory or medical instruments, and suitable for clean rooms. The lifts consist of a vertical column mast that supports linear bearings for load support and a screw actuator, similar to a stacker design. The lifts’ platform is cantilevered off the vertical mast, allowing access from the other three sides. A slim cabinet contains the motor and controls. The lift tables are offered as a stationary, floor-mounted lift system, but also can be upgraded with a wheel package turning them into screw-operated mobile stackers. Air Technical can customize the lifting tables’ capacity, size, lift travel and power source, as required.
Benefits Smooth, precise lifting action, with highly accurate and repeatable vertical positioning.
