Anyone have experience with adjustable height platforms for operators at presses? We have a wide range of heights we need to accommodate to make our operations more ergonomic. We would like the up/down adjustment to be easy and quick.
Thanks!

Re: Adjustable height platforms
John,
We had some of these, they were roughly 8ft x 4ft and had a scissor action that raised and lowered them. I believe they hooked up to 110 power and were hydraulic.
For whatever reason, we have gotten away from them and gone instead to a minimum platform and the a bunch of large steps in various heights. https://www.mcmaster.com/81845T12/
Operators seem to like these and they are a lot easier and cheaper to maintain than the complicated platforms we had before.
