Frequently asked questions
Common questions about BISHAMON from 3G Electric.
What is the load capacity range of Bishamon manual lift tables available from 3G Electric?
Bishamon manual lift tables supplied by 3G Electric include fixed-top models with load capacities of 440 lb, 550 lb, 1,100 lb, and 1,650 lb. The BX-25 manual scissor-lift table has a 660 lb capacity. Maximum lifting heights for these manual units range from 21 in to 34 1/8 in. All manual models use hydraulic lift mechanisms operated by foot pedal, except the BX-25 which is a manual scissor-lift table with a steel platform. Platform dimensions vary by model, with the BX-25 having a 32 in by 19 11/16 in platform.
What power options are available for Bishamon electric lift tables?
Bishamon electric lift tables in the 3G Electric catalog include models operating on 24V DC and 230V AC 3-phase power. The LX200N fixed-top electric lift table uses 24V DC and has a 4,400 lb load capacity with a 39 13/32 in maximum lifting height. The LX-100N model operates on 230V AC 3-phase power and has a 2,200 lb load capacity with a 38 19/32 in maximum lifting height. Both models use hydraulic lifting mechanisms and push-button lift control. Selection depends on facility power availability and load requirements.
How does the Bishamon EZ Loader pallet positioner adjust to different load weights?
The Bishamon EZ Loader is a weight-actuated powered pallet positioner with a 4,000 lb load capacity and 50 in overall length. It automatically adjusts platform height as load weight changes, which maintains an ergonomic working height during loading and unloading. This weight-actuated design does not require manual height adjustment or external power controls for height changes. The unit is finished in blue powder coating. It is used in receiving, staging, and order-picking operations where palletized loads are handled repeatedly.
What are the platform dimensions of Bishamon scissor-lift tables?
Platform dimensions vary across Bishamon scissor-lift table models. The BX-25 manual scissor-lift table has a steel platform measuring 32 in in length and 19 11/16 in in width. The X-25C fixed-top manual lift table has a 32 in platform length. Other models in the line have different platform sizes depending on load capacity and lift height. For specific platform dimensions, refer to the individual SKU specifications in the 3G Electric catalog. Platform size is a key selection factor when matching a lift table to the footprint of the load being handled.
What is the difference between Bishamon fixed-top lift tables and manual scissor-lift tables?
Bishamon fixed-top lift tables have a stationary platform that raises and lowers vertically using a hydraulic mechanism, typically operated by foot pedal on manual models or push-button on electric models. Manual scissor-lift tables, such as the BX-25, also use a scissor mechanism but are distinguished by their platform construction and specific model design. The BX-25 has a steel platform and a 660 lb capacity with a 34 1/8 in maximum lift height. Fixed-top models in the catalog include capacities from 440 lb to 4,400 lb. Both types are used for ergonomic positioning of loads at workstations.
What should I consider when selecting a Bishamon lift table for an assembly station?
When selecting a Bishamon lift table for an assembly station, consider the load weight and size, required lift height, available power, and frequency of use. Manual foot-pedal models are suitable for lighter loads up to 1,650 lb where power is not available or where simple operation is preferred. Electric models are used for loads up to 4,400 lb and where push-button control is needed. Maximum lifting heights range from 21 in to 39 13/32 in. Platform dimensions must accommodate the workpiece or container. The BX-25 manual scissor-lift table offers a 660 lb capacity and 34 1/8 in lift height for intermediate requirements.
