Product Material Handling Lift

[Martin w]

I bought this 4500 pound lift last week on Gov Deals from the Liquor Control Board of Ontario. When I picked it up, it is literally brand new. It even came with a dolly like you would move a trailer around with.
We put an entire lift of melamine on it in front of the CNC. Now one guy can load sheets and it lifts up as you remove a sheet, so it’s always at the same height. It even swivels 360 degrees with detents at every 90 degrees. Works awesome, I’m pretty happy.
It was on before but never sold. They listed it again and I bid but it didn’t make the reserve so I forgot about it. They emailed and said to come get it.

Wow nice

Nice score. That looks super handy for what you're using it for. One can never have too many lifting devices.

Helluva deal for 299.45.

Looks like some kind of Acme tool that WileCoyote mail ordered. Good score

He was wondering what the bird seed was for....
Sounds like it was exactly what was needed and priced very nicely. Well done.

U-Line has similar tables for around 2700.

it lifts up as you remove a sheet, so it’s always at the same height.

How does it do that? Like those plate dispensers in a cafeteria which always have the next plate at the right height. There is something subtle here....

I think it’s because it is rated for 4500 pounds and that is pretty much the weight of a lift of melamine.There is two big coil springs. I’m not sure how it does it. Nothing really mechanical other than a big shock absorber. We just cut 41 sheet’s yesterday and I measured as we went and it was within a quarter inch for the entire lift.The nice thing is it’s fairly close to the height of the CNC.
