Air Bag Dock Leveler

An air bag dock leveler is a type of loading dock equipment used to bridge the gap between a loading dock and a truck or trailer. It is designed to provide a smooth and safe transition for forklifts and other equipment to move between the dock and the truck.The air bag dock leveler consists of a series of air bags that are inflated and deflated to adjust the height of the dock leveler to match the height of the truck or trailer. When the leveler is not in use, the air bags are deflated, allowing the leveler to rest on the ground. When a truck or trailer is backed up to the dock, the air bags are inflated, raising the leveler to the same height as the truck bed.This type of dock leveler offers several advantages over traditional mechanical dock levelers. It provides a smoother transition for forklifts and other equipment, reducing the risk of accidents and damage to goods. It also requires less maintenance, as there are no mechanical parts that can wear out or break. Additionally, air bag dock levelers are more energy efficient, as they do not require any electricity to operate.
