Dock levelers are a necessity for loading bay in manufacturing
plants & warehouses. A dock leveler is a mechanical platform which forms a
bridge between the vehicle & the dock. It facilitates smooth loading &
unloading operation in warehouses by ensuring that the vehicle height reaches
the height of the platform. Efficiency of a warehouse largely depends on how
efficiently these activities are performed. Using a dock leveler reduces manual
operations & operation time hence increasing efficiency. A dock leveler can
be mechanical, air or hydraulically powered and comes in many varieties to suit
different uses. It is a completely customizable product.
Maini Materials Movement laid the foundation of Dock Leveler
manufacturing in India. Maini offers highly efficient full hydraulic dock
