Rampa mobile ngarkuese

Warehouse ramp is a metal construction, which provides a safe and efficient way to load and unload goods from trucks, storage containers.

The design of a mobile ramp can be divided into several main parts: the metal construction, the hydraulic part and the wheeled part.

1. Metal construction. In the construction of the mobile loading ramp AUSBAU, we use only the highest quality rolled metal. For example, 70% of the weight of the ramp falls on profile pipes of various sizes and sections. Using profile pipes in the construction of the ramp, we were able to achieve a reduction in self-weight of the product while increasing reliability. Profile pipes have 4 walls, which greatly increases the reliability of the mobile loading ramp.

2. Hydraulic part. The use of modern pumps and optimal selection of hydraulic cylinders ensure the most comfortable working conditions on the mobile ramp. We use Italian-made pumps, which have a 12-month warranty

3. Ramp moving device. And the last important element of the mobile loading ramp is its wheeled part. It can be made in the most various ways, but we are of the opinion that the use of solid rubber wheels is optimal.

There are two main types of loading ramps: fixed and mobile.

A mobile ramp is a metal construction in the form of an inclined platform that levels the difference between the ground/warehouse surface and the truck body. Mobile ramps are used outdoors or indoors. One person with a forklift is enough to perform loading operations.

At the same time, the consumer may need a simpler type of loading ramp, such as AUSBAU-ST or AUSBAU-STB fixed ramps.

Depending on the material used in mobile ramps manufacturing, they can be divided into 2 types - I-beam ramp and ramp made of profile tube. To learn more about the features of I-beam or sectional tube ramps you can read our article - loading ramp of I-beam or sectional tube - how to make the right choice.

Before purchasing a mobile loading yard ramp, specify the main requirements for this ramp and what tasks mobile ramp must solve for you.

Thus, the most basic principles:

1. The loading on the ramp. You should buy the loading ramp for the existing warehouse equipment, or which will be used in the future. Meaning, before you buy a ramp, calculate total sum of weights of your heaviest forklift, its maximum load capacity and add 500 kg more. The loading capacity of the ramp will be a main parameter in order to buy a ramp.

2. Type of equipment used. Also, before buying a mobile ramp for a warehouse, find out what loader or other equipment will ride on the ramp. You can buy a short mobile loading ramp, but it will be difficult to drive up with the help of the electric forklift, although diesel truck drives up it without serious efforts.

3. Freight traffic. We strongly recommend you to buy a mobile loading yard ramp, if you have quite intensive traffic or the unloading processes without a ramp in your warehouse take a lot of time and efforts (tent opening, freight moving inside truck using hydraulic carts, etc.). If you have these conditions, we really recommend you to purchase a ramp, because it will save you time and money in the future.

4. The angle of inclination should provide a comfortable entry and exit on the mobile loading ramp for both loaded and empty forklift. It is more difficult for a loaded forklift to ride up because of the load, but in this case the wheels have better traction with the surface of the mobile ramp due to the pressure. An empty forklift is easier to drive "lightweight", but the contact area of its tires with the surface of the ramp is less than that of a loaded forklift.

5. Range of heights. It is necessary to determine the height range of the vehicle, which is suitable for unloading/loading processes to the mobile ramp, as it must cover it. If you often use low trucks, then it is advisable to order a mobile ramp with a lowered minimum height.

6. The possibility of placing the ramp in the warehouse. The loading ramp should help, not hinder. Take into account your own area of the territory. You need enough space to maneuver the mobile ramp and the availability of space for storage.
