Platform Lifts

Platform lift trucks have a flat, solid platform that can hold smaller loads, bulk commodities, or irregularly shaped objects that aren't placed on pallets or skids, as well as a lifting mechanism that elevates the laden platform. These wheeled vehicles, also known as platform stackers, move and hoist cargo in warehouses, manufacturing factories, and other industrial sites in order to stack or place them on storage racks or other high surfaces. Platform lifts require less maintenance and can traverse through tight locations more readily than forklifts, and they do not require certification to operate. Platform lifts that are operated manually require less maintenance than those that are motorised. Manual platform lifts require more physical effort to operate than fully or partially motorized platform lifts. Platform lifts, unless otherwise specified, should only be used on firm, flat surfaces because they may roll back if utilized on inclines.
