- Typical lifting capacity
- For this class of equipment, lifting capacities are highly variable, with many units capable of handling several hundred kilograms, and some designed for significantly heavier loads.
- Common tip heights
- Units commonly offer tip heights up to approximately 1500mm, though customisation for specific applications is frequent.
- Construction materials
- Typically constructed from stainless steel for hygiene-critical environments, or mild steel for less demanding applications.
- Power supply
- Hydraulic or pneumatic systems are commonly used, requiring appropriate power and air supplies for operation.
- Suitable container types
- Designed to lift and tip various containers, including standard bins, drums, dolafs, and palletainers.
- Safety features
- Units commonly include fully enclosed safety guards and hose burst fuses on hydraulic/pneumatic cylinders.
- Footprint
- The footprint varies significantly based on lifting capacity, tip height, and guarding options, requiring site-specific assessment.
