 | | EASILIFT HYGIENIC LOADING BAYS ARE THE CREAM FOR 75 MILLION ARLA FOODS DAIRY
| | | Easilift Loading Systems Ltd | | 14/12/2006 | | | Easilift Loading Systems Ltd was chosen to supply and install equipment for 23 loading bays at Arla Foods' 75 million state-of-the-art dairy at Stourton, Leeds.
Its dock levellers, insulated sectional doors and door control panels have stainless steel protective finishes to meet the dairy's stringent hygiene standards.
Each bay features a 4,000 kg capacity Easilift Poweramp 232 dock leveller measuring 3.0 m long x 2.31 m wide with a galvanised steel finish. Available in a range of sizes, it is a fully hydraulic model with a swing/hinged type lip designed and built to be long-lasting with low maintenance requirements.
The Powerdoor electrically operated, fully insulated sectional overhead doors each measure 2.5 m wide x 2.5 m high, contain two vision panels and have special stainless steel hardware.
Dock shelters are Easilift's collapsible model 403, a sturdy, hard wearing general-purpose version, designed to seal off the widest variety of vehicles during loading and unloading.
Each bay has a fully integrated control panel to open and close the door. Because the bays are regularly washed down the controls are housed within a stainless steel panel.
Easilift also supplied traffic lights for each bay plus sliding mechanism dock bumpers. As the ride height of the vehicle moves up and down during loading and unloading, the bumper also moves to minimise wear and tear of the hardwearing nylon on the bumper face.
Arla Foods' Stourton dairy is amongst the most technologically advanced in Europe. It processes in excess of 450 million litres of fresh milk a year and boasts the world's largest fresh milk four-pint weigh filler.
Arla Foods is the UK's leading dairy company with a combined turnover in excess of 1.3bn, processing over 2.2 billion litres of milk a year and home to some of the UK's leading dairy brands including Lurpak, Anchor and Cravedendale.
Easilift supplies everything necessary for the safe, efficient and profitable operation of loading bays, including dock levellers, dock shelters, dock seals, dock pods, doors, high speed doors, vehicle restraints and lifting platforms, together with a complete range of accessories and safety aids such as dock plates & bumpers, wheel guides, traffic light and integrated control systems.
