Dock Levellers

Hörmann: Quality Without Compromise


Manual Dock Levellers

Manual operation with nearly identical loading heights.

In cases where lorries with almost identical loading heights are used, example for uniform fleets, the proper planning of the dock height results in minimal height differences to the loading surface of the vehicles. 

With a standard rated load of 60 kN, the MLS and MRS mechanical dock levellers are able to meet most demands and are the most economical solution for each situation. They are simple to operate via a control bar. 

DOCK LEVELLER MLS

Fitting in the building floor. 

MRS DOCK LEVELLER

Fitting in front of the building, either with vertical or horizontal buffer supports. Recommended dock shelter DSS with 900mm depth.

 

EASY OPERATION

Easy operation via gas spring support.

BASCULE BRIDGES

Bascule bridges sideways shifting for fitting to ramps. 


Hydraulic Dock Leveller 

Comfortable operation with great leveling.

Hydraulic dock levellers are available as hinged lip or telescopic dock levellers. With a length of up to 5 meters, they can bridge large height differences between the rap and the lorry loading level.

All Hormann dock levellers comply with the requirements of EN 1398, the  “Dock Levellers - Safety Requirements”.

HYDRAULIC DOCK LEVELLER DETAILED QUALITY

FLAT TRANSITIONS

The flat transitions form the platform to the telescopic lip and to the loading surface ensure safe loading. 

STABLE TELESCOPIC LIP

The telescopic lip with a robust front lip is reinforced throughout. The 12/14 mm thick running plate is made of a single piece. 

ROBUST HINGED LIP

The open design with hinge points close to one another prevents the accumulation of dirt, such as wood shavings, in the hinge. 

SAFE, RELIABLE OPERATIONS

2 hydraulic cylinders ensure the balanced, reliable and most importantly, safe operation of the dock leveller. It comes equipped with automatic emergency-stop valves. 

LONG-LASTING DESIGN

A high-quality running plate, 6/8 or 8/10 mm thick, with a standard rated load of 60 kN permanently carries goods and transport equipment.

REINFORCEMENTS ON THE OTHER SIDE

The number and design of the girders prevent deformation (track groves) beyond the degree required by En 1398. 

NOISE-REDUCING PEDESTAL

Steel meeting steel results in a noise that is neither pleasant nor healthy for employees. Rubber buffers on the telescopic lip dock leveller pedestals reduce the contact noise when positioning the platform. 

SIMPLE SOLUTION BY HLS

HLS hydraulic dock leveller made of high-quality materials and with as well-optimized design which results in an inexpensive base price. Its quality is equal to dock leveller HLS-2 in every respect. 

LOW TRANSPORTATION COST

The specially designed structure of HLS makes low transport height of 380mm, cost reduction of up to 50% is possible.
