lifting table for cable car mountain station

Part 1 of the project presentation can be found in the report Lifting table cable car valley station.

Short summary of the first part:
The lifting table is used to position special loads under the cabin so that they can be transported. This requires the expertise of the technicians, who use large lifting tables under the cabins to lift the heavy goods and attach them precisely. First, the lifting table is lowered to floor level so that the load can be pushed underneath. The table then lifts the load centimeter by centimeter until it is securely attached to the cabin. At the destination, the whole thing is reversed: the load is carefully lowered and unhooked again by the lifting table - a process that masterfully combines technology and precision.

At the mountain station, the situation was made more difficult by the fact that the huge lifting table parts first had to be brought to the summit via a makeshift mountain road. Once there, they were unloaded using the construction crane and temporarily stored. The weather was a problem here. The assembly took place in January and the heavy snowfall at times did not make the work any easier.
Nevertheless, my technicians had a huge pleasure in being able to participate in such a mega project.

Details of the lifting table for loading a cable car

planning and tender basis of the project

The start of the project was identical to all other previous lifting table projects. The customer sent us his specifications with the rough requirements.

2 scissor lift tables, each with a load capacity of 10,000 kg and a platform size of 9 x 5 meters.

After initial telephone calls, we decided to offer, develop and implement this project.

The XXL lifting table was tested in the factory before delivery

As with every scissor lift table that is delivered, a comprehensive test was carried out in the factory.

Especially with special designs, it is important that all functions work perfectly. The lifting tables were completely assembled and tested. They were then dismantled into the 4 small basic elements and loaded onto the truck.

Assembly, commissioning, training and handover of the lifting table for cable cars

First, the 4 individual lifting tables were lifted into the prepared excavation pit and connected to each other. The gaps in the picture were only closed after commissioning so that the technicians could still access all parts without hindrance.

A lifting railing was installed on the edge of the platform on the valley side, which is extended or retracted depending on the lifting position.

Solid swivel supports are installed under the platform. These mechanical supports ensure that the lifting table can be driven on stably in the upper position. The supports are raised and the platform rests on the supports. (see picture below)

Four scissors lift the platform synchronously upwards

Four scissor packs with their own cylinders were installed under the lifting table. The four platforms are bolted together, but would not lift at exactly the same time if the load was unevenly distributed.

For this reason, we have installed a hydraulic multiple flow divider. This ensures even lifting even when the individual platforms are subjected to unequal loads.
