Fall protection for lifting tables

One Fall protection on a lifting table On the one hand, it ensures that the goods cannot roll or fall off the platform. On the other hand, it also ensures that the operator cannot fall off the platform while loading. With fall protection on scissor lift tables, employees are protected from injuries and the goods are protected from damage.
Depending on the application and the situation on site, a different fall protection must be selected.

Fall protection on the lifting table platform

On the Lift table platform You can have fixed welded, screwed or pluggable ones railing attach to each side. In addition to the railings are often Gates attached so that you can lifting table can also be loaded. The gates can be equipped with a manual lock, an electrically sensed lock or a forced lock.
If you just want to prevent one transport device from rolling off the platform, then you put a so-called Roll protection a. This can be mechanical or electrical and folds out as soon as the lifting table moves up.

Fall protection at the upper stop

When a lifting table Connects two levels, if the level difference is 500mm, you have to install fall protection at the top stop. A gate, a barrier, a chain or a gate is sufficient here up to 1.6 m traveling portal on the platform. From 1.6m, according to the lifting table standard EN 1570-1, railings or gates must be installed to prevent people or goods from falling into the lifting area when the lifting table is in the lower position.

Project examples from the maluk lifting table world

Lifting table with roll-off protection

The smallest fall protection is certainly this Roll protection.

In the mechanical version, this extends as soon as the Lift table moved up and prevents transport equipment from rolling away.

In this project, the roll-off protection was only partially required because pallets were also being transported. So we have one electrical roll-off protection installed, which can be extended at the push of a button if necessary.

Lift table with special railings

Many use cases require people to ride on the platform. In such a case you have to Railing as fall protection be built on the platform.

In this project, the customer wanted a separate area for the employee so that they would be ideally protected. So we have a second row Railing on the lifting table platform assembled. The operator can therefore walk back and forth along the platform without tripping over the goods.

Lifting table with traveling portal

Three fall protection devices were used in this scissor lift table project. Quickly install railings on both long sides and an electrically controlled gate on one narrow side of the platform. This gate can only be opened when the lifting table is in the lower position.

On the side towards the building we have one traveling portal appropriate. This ensures that if the lifting table is at the bottom and someone opens the door at the top so that the operator doesn't fall down.

Lt. According to the lifting table standard EN 1570-1, such a portal is permitted up to a maximum level difference of 1.6m. A contacted gate must be installed above it.

Lift table with rotating platform and side guides

The simplest fall protection is a classic one Lateral guidance. Here two angles are attached to the desired sides of the lifting table platform, which ensure that the product cannot roll onto this side.

In this project, the platform had to be rotated by 90°. To ensure that the goods do not slip off the rotating platform fixed roll-off protection appropriate.
