In the wood processing industry, lift tables are indispensable helpers. They are often placed in front of panel saws or similar cutting machines to safely and comfortably handle long wooden elements. Since the lifting distance is usually relatively short compared to the platform length, a tandem lift table is often used.
Why doesn't the tandem lift table have a flow divider?
The tandem lift table in the title image does not require a flow divider to synchronize the scissors, despite having two scissor sets. This is because there is hardly any unilateral loading from the wooden panels. Additionally, the distance between the two scissor sets is small. This close mechanical coupling prevents asynchronous movement, eliminating the need for a flow divider.
Special features for the wood industry
In the wood industry, particularly in carpentry shops, there is a high level of dust. Therefore, a high-pressure filter against fine dust is integrated into the pressure line of the hydraulic unit. This filter prevents the oil from becoming sludge, which not only increases the lifespan of the hydraulic fluid but also protects the hydraulic components from premature wear.
To make handling the wooden panels more comfortable, the lift table's platform cover is made of smooth sheet metal instead of chequer plate. Another feature is the large platform area, which enables effective and safe handling of bulky loads such as chipboards.
