Available exclusively in Australia from Maverick Equipment, the Bishamon KGL platform lifter is a high-specification moving platform stacker that makes light work of day-to-day materials handling tasks in manufacturing and retail applications.

Two basic versions are available with capacities of 250 and 450kg, each with a choice of maximum lifting height of either 820 or 1170mm. In each case the platform can be lowered to 150mm, which puts it level with bottom shelf or pallet height.

In operation, the KGL platform is very easy to manoeuvre, with a single braking mechanism that locks both steering castors. The lifting mechanism uses a simple footpump that can be adjusted to enable double-speed lifting for lighter loads.

The Bishamon KGL platform lifter range is available now from Maverick Equipment. Standard units are finished in painted steel, and all types are optionally available with stainless-steel frames for use in food processing, clean rooms, pharmaceutical and medical applications.
