Shipping Container Ramps | Industrial Solutions
Lots-a-Ramps shipping container ramps are designed to optimize space, improve productivity, and ensure safety. Leading the industry in custom steel fabrication, Lots-a-Ramps mastered America’s ultimate ramp. The innovative, one-cylinder shipping container ramp utilizes less pressure to raise the ramp. In comparison to traditional yard ramps that use two-cylinder hydraulic systems, this change results in:
- User-Friendliness – The pump, located on the outside of the container ramp frame, allows for convenient access.
- Faster lift times – Create desired positioning of the ramp up to two and a half times faster than a standard ramp.
- Less wear and tear – Rotation takes place on the redesigned positioning sleeve versus the ramp connection. In turn, decreasing wear on the ramp structure.
- Greater stability – Centrally located cylinder reduces the likelihood of tipping.
- Solid-filled pneumatic tires – Dominate rugged terrain and reduce the chance of punctures or air pressure issues.
Shipping Container Loading Equipment | Lots-a-Ramps Yard Ramp
With years of experience and an exceptional history of success, Lots-a-ramps’s objective is to simplify shipping container loading and unloading tasks with increased safety, efficiency, and productivity. Therefore, Lots-a-Ramps engineered a shipping container ramp, serving as a container unloading platform unlike any other.
How to Unload a Container Safely with Lots-a-Ramps Container Ramp
Copperloy shipping container ramps are expertly engineered with the highest level of safety and performance. Key safety features make unloading containers a breeze.
- 8-Foot Level Off – An 8-foot level off feature gives forklifts easy access onto containers and loading platforms. Particularly on mobile ramps, this feature provides excelled stability.
- 15-Inch Lip – A 15-inch lip securely sits on the platform. Mobile ramps feature safety chains. These benefits are designed to ensure the ramp doesn’t pull away.
- Hydraulic Pump – In comparison to competitors, a single-acting hydraulic hand pump requires minimal effort to lift. Additionally, the pump is placed in a new location for easy maintenance and to protect against dirt, debris, and damage.
- Deck Grating – Engineered for durability, high-strength steel grating bars are standard on all Lots-a-Ramps ramps. Spaced bars allow snow, rain, and other debris to fall through. A serrated grating is part of the ramp’s design, ensuring a high-traction running surface in all weather.
- Low End Plate – A low end plate shorter than the wheelbase of most forklifts is designed to enable front drive wheels to reach high-traction grating. Meanwhile, rear wheels are still in contact with the ground.
- Safety Curbs – 7-inch curbs, standard on all Lots-a-Ramps ramps, help prevent accidental runoff.
