Dual Scissor Lift: Versatile Lifting Solution
The 20-ton Twin Scissor Lifter with hydraulic system is a heavy-duty lifting equipment used in industrial settings for lifting and positioning heavy loads. It consists of two scissor mechanisms working in tandem to provide stability and lifting capacity.
Hydraulic System: The hydraulic system powers the lifting mechanism of the scissor lifter. It typically includes a hydraulic pump, cylinders, valves, and hoses. When activated, the hydraulic pump pressurizes hydraulic fluid, which is then transferred to the cylinders, causing them to extend and lift the platform. The hydraulic system allows for smooth and controlled lifting and lowering of heavy loads.
Industrial Safety Operating Guide: Operating the Twin Scissor Lifter safely is paramount to prevent accidents and injuries. The safety operating guide includes:
Load Capacity: Ensure that the total weight of the load being lifted does not exceed the rated capacity of the lifter, which in this case is 20 tons. Overloading can lead to structural failure and accidents.
Proper Positioning: Position the lifter on a flat, stable surface before operation to prevent tipping or instability during lifting.
Pre-Operation Inspection: Conduct a thorough inspection of the lifter, including hydraulic components, structural integrity, and safety features, to ensure everything is in working order before each use.
Safety Features: Familiarize yourself with the safety features of the lifter, such as emergency stop buttons, safety interlocks, and overload protection systems. Use these features as needed to prevent accidents.
Operating Procedures: Follow the manufacturer’s recommended operating procedures for raising, lowering, and maneuvering the lifter. Use the control panel or levers to operate the hydraulic system smoothly and precisely.
Personnel Safety: Keep bystanders at a safe distance during lifting operations to prevent accidents. Provide proper training to operators on safe operating practices and emergency procedures.
Maintenance: Perform regular maintenance on the lifter, including lubrication of moving parts, inspection of hydraulic hoses and fittings, and testing of safety features. Address any issues promptly to ensure continued safe operation.
By adhering to the industrial safety operating guide and properly maintaining the equipment, operators can safely and efficiently utilize the 20-ton Twin Scissor Lifter with hydraulic system for lifting heavy loads in industrial environments.
