Fluctuating Dock Bumpers - Loading Bays Equipment

FLUCTUATING BUMPERS

Fluctuating bumpers of high tension rubber, able to comply with the vertical movements of the vehicle during the loading. Top resistance qualified rubber.

PERFORMANCE

The top resistance of the rubber of the FLOAT, together with the capacity to follow the up-down movements of the under load vehicle are the final solution for the dock bumpers.

High resistance rubber and adequate screw fixing system, and the bigger surface of the MEGA bumpers grant for a long lasting.
Their depth of 100 mm reveals to be able to better withstand against the backing of the vehicles.
Only the overlapping of the dock by higher vehicles is the danger. In this case, fit the raising options of 150 mm.

HOW IT WORKS

The FLOAT bumpers ARE MADE OF SPECIAL QUALIFIES RUBBER THAT RESIST TO COMPRESSIONAND FRICTIONS, they absorb the impact of the docking vehicle as to preserve the dock and the dock leveller, and fluctuate UP-DOWN together with the vehicle in case of inward slope of the court. In this case they sometimes need the optional steel cover.
In case the vehicles overlap the dock level, every type of bumpers is destroyed when the vehicle is loaded and it lays onto the dock and it departs. In this case it is indispensable to install raising devices and sometimes the optional steel cover.

FUNCTIONING

Sliding in vertical into steel dedicated profiles, the neutral position is obtained by two springs that maintain the bumper in rest position at dock level

INSTALLATION

The FLOAT bumpers are installed by bolting then into threatened manifold provided into the casting of the Campisa prefabrications. This allows a quick and solid installation and easy maintenance.
The installation on traditional systems of dock are made by expansion bolts or fixation to existing elements.
