一、Use a Hydraulic Dock Leveler (Fixed Type)
A hydraulic dock leveler is the most widely used solution for connecting loading docks with trucks of different heights. It acts as a bridge between the dock and the truck bed, adjusting its height to ensure seamless cargo transfer.
Key Features:
Automatic height adjustment with hydraulic control
High load capacity (6–15 tons standard)
Suitable for high-frequency operations in logistics hubs
Ideal for warehouses with a permanent loading dock and large truck volume.
二、Deploy a Mobile Yard Ramp (Mobile Dock Ramp)
A mobile yard ramp is perfect for locations without a fixed loading dock or when working outdoors. It provides a temporary yet robust slope for forklifts or pallet jacks to enter trucks directly.
Advantages:
Flexible positioning, easy to move to different docks or trailers
Adjustable height range to suit various truck types
Steel structure with anti-slip surface for safety
Especially useful in freight yards, open warehouses, or multi-bay environments.
三、Use a Scissor Lift Platform for Height Transfer
A scissor lift platform can serve as a middle-level adjustment zone, especially in cases where there’s a significant height gap between the warehouse floor and truck bed.
Applications:
Ground-to-truck or ground-to-dock transfer
Heavy cargo elevation
Indoor or outdoor use
Ideal when your building structure doesn’t support a traditional dock or when handling non-palletized cargo.
