Access systems make it easier to operate, inspect and maintain equipment. We can assist you to find the best access solution for your particular needs, because our services include concept design, fabrication drawings, lasercut files and engineering certification. In addition, we can also help with quality control and quality plans. Furthermore, all designs conform to the relevant Australian Standards. Below are some examples of specialised access systems:
Bus Ramp
Below is the 3D representation of the above bus ramp.
Forklift Ramps
One of our clients uses the forklift ramps shown below for loading and unloading of food trucks. These ramps were fabricated by others some time ago and were never rated for a safe working load and thus needed to be certified for a specific capacity. Dynamic Engineering did an analysis of the Forklift and Access Ramp Design. It indicated that the ramps were indeed not fit for purpose as it did not comply with the relevant standards in relation to the required load rating. We recommended modifications to the ramps to ensure compliance and issued a design report based on the proposed modifications (certified the proposed design).
The second picture below shows the revised and upgraded ramps. The new design incorporated design improvements where required (upgraded pin connections and sleeves), and also included some safety recommendations (“keep-clear” areas added). Through our involvement in this project, we were able to provide value to our client by: 1) Improving the existing design in terms of safety 2) Providing the required paperwork required by the mines safety inspector.
Dump Truck Ramp
Dump trucks are large and heavy vehicles and thus require very sturdy maintenance ramps. In addition, our client needed to be able to move the ramps easily. Dynamic Engineering designed the ramps, which fulfil both requirements. The ramp was designed in accordance with the Australian Standards and was made strong enough to withstand the load of the truck. The ramp can simply be moved with a forklift. It includes sleeves to prevent the forklift guides from damaging the ramp structure.
