Scissor Carts

Lift, position, and transport materials between work areas with scissor lift carts from Material Flow. Combining a mobile cart with an elevating platform, scissor carts allow loads to be raised from a lower transport height to a more convenient working position for loading, unloading, assembly, maintenance, and other material handling tasks.  Scissor carts and mobile lift tables are commonly used in warehouses, manufacturing plants, assembly areas, maintenance departments, workshops, stockrooms, and distribution facilities. Their scissor-style lifting mechanism raises and lowers the platform while casters allow materials to be moved between locations, combining load transportation and positioning in one piece of equipment.  Depending on the model, scissor lift carts may use manual hydraulic, foot-pump, powered, or other lifting mechanisms. Available models can vary in platform dimensions, rated capacity, lowered and raised height, caster configuration, handle design, construction, and lifting method. Some carts are intended primarily for transporting and positioning loads, while others provide greater lift ranges for applications requiring materials to be raised closer to working height.  When selecting a scissor cart, consider the load weight and dimensions, rated capacity, platform size, minimum and maximum platform height, lifting method, frequency of operation, caster configuration, operating surface, travel distance, aisle space, and required working height. Applications involving frequent lifting cycles or specialized operating conditions may benefit from powered or application-specific lift equipment.  Material Flow offers scissor lift carts and mobile lift tables for lifting, positioning, and transporting materials throughout warehouses, manufacturing facilities, assembly operations, maintenance areas, workshops, and other industrial work environments.
