At present, there are many brands and types of lifters on the market, providing users with many choices. So what factors should we consider when buying a lift?
(A) safety is the first element
Lifting machine is lifting equipment, involving the safety of the vehicle and the operator. So in the procurement of lift, should be its security as the first element, carefully examine its security indicators, insurance device function and the manufacturer of security can assume responsibility for such items.
Security can be divided into active security and passive security. Active safety refers to the safety and reliability of the lift itself, such as whether the structure of the lift is reasonable, the strength of the components rigidity is sufficient.
Passive security refers to the lift in case of loss of active security of personal and equipment protection, such as whether there is mechanical safety insurance institutions (to prevent abnormal fall), hydraulic self-locking protection, mechanical limit protection (to prevent mechanical vehicles from rushing to the top), power failure protection and other devices.
(B) select the type of lift according to the use
There are many types of lift, different types of structure, function and other aspects are different. Before buying a lift should first clarify the purpose of the lift and the use of the environment, and then choose the appropriate type of lift.
At present, the lift on the market according to its structure type is divided into different column, shear, hidden type, etc.
(C) compare the main components.
The main components of the lift are. Column: compare the column cross-section size, steel plate thickness, height size. Lifting mechanism: compare the cross-sectional size, stiffness strength, rotation and expansion of the range and flexibility, etc. Hydraulic station: hydraulic station to provide working power to the lifter, is one of the most important parts of the lifter. Hydraulic cylinders, chains, wire ropes are selected from the regular manufacturers of products.
(D) appearance quality comparison.
Can compare the appearance of the design is beautiful, whether the workmanship is fine, the quality of the weld seam condition, surface treatment, etc.
(E) Comparison of service.
Whether there is a complete manual and other factory information; whether to provide transportation, installation, training and other services; the size of the product warranty and the length of the warranty period; whether the manufacturer has a local service network and service response time.
(F) compare the strength of the manufacturer.
Comprehensive consideration of the manufacturer’s brand, reputation, certification, production capacity, etc.
(G) comprehensive comparison of cost performance.
After comparing the performance, quality, but also have to consider the price of this reality. But do not sacrifice safety and performance to pursue price. Must be in the safety and performance indicators to meet the requirements of the conditions, in the product quality and service level of similar products and then compare prices.
