Steel grating – the main secret of mobile ramp effectiveness
Loading equipment is designed to optimize and improve logistics processes at the warehouse. When choosing loading ramps it is important to pay attention to the driveway – the steel grating.
In the production of mobile loading ramps we use exclusively the deck of the welded type. In contrast to the pressed one all structural elements are fastened by means of contact welding which provides uniformity of connection. This directly affects the durability and resistance to high loads.
Grating deck is widely use in industrial and construction areas. Such popularity is caused due to the number of advantages:
- It is resistant to deformation and can withstand high loads. The vertical strips, which are the supporting element of the grating, evenly distribute the weight over the surface;
- Easy to install and remove. Secure to the mobile ramp longitudinal strips with a clamping bracket and bolt;
- Easy to maintain. The honeycomb surface ensures cleanliness from rainfall and dirt.
For loading ramps, it is advisable to choose the steel grating based on the location and weather conditions. Our company offers different types of graiting for any type of mobile ramp:
- Standard steel graiting – the surface is coated with a layer of paint without prior zinc coating. Standard grating is less resistant to rainfall. If the mobile loading ramp is located outdoors, it is recommended to choose a zinc coated driveway surface.
- Zinc coated graiting is covered with a layer of zinc, which protects it from chemical and physical effects. Zinc is applied by lowering the graiting into a bath of electrolyte. A mobile loading ramp with a zinc coated driveway is resistant to rainfall and can be used outdoors.
- If loading and unloading operations are carried out at low temperatures, it is necessary to equip the ramp with an anti-slip steel grating. Due to the rifled teeth placed on the perimeter of the bearing strips it provides reliable traction of forklift wheels with the roadway. Ideal suited for loading ramps with a sloping platform.
- The zinc-coated serrated graiting combines the features of the aforementioned coatings. It makes driving on the roadway more reliable and at the same time is as resistant as possible to all kinds of rainfall.
AUSBAU guarantees the high quality of every piece of equipment. We use graitings made of robust steel, manufactured according to international standards and vouch for the quality. Our managers are always ready to advise and help you in choosing the ideal cover for your loading ramp.
