In the fast-paced world of logistics and transportation, every loading operation impacts efficiency, safety, and costs. The innovative Air-over-Hydraulic leg system from Power-Packer addresses critical industry challenges, transforming how trailers connect with loading docks.
Imagine arriving at a loading dock and achieving perfect alignment with just the push of a button. Power-Packer's hydraulic legs provide precise, smooth height adjustment, significantly reducing operator strain while dramatically improving loading efficiency.
Power-Packer offers tailored hydraulic leg solutions to meet specific operational requirements. Whether front-mounted or rear-mounted systems, their engineering team selects premium hydraulic components to create optimal configurations for each application.
Front-mounted systems install directly on existing trailer wings, while traditional rear-mounted systems integrate between dual rear wheels on high-cube or lowboy trailers. This flexibility ensures safe, efficient loading operations across various trailer types.
- Engineered for rapid hitch connections
- Exceptional heavy-load performance
- Automatically compensates for uneven ground
- Reduces risks of operator injury and trailer damage
- Lifts trailers up to 70,000 lbs to dock height
- Creates level transfer surfaces for faster loading
- Enables increased backhaul revenue opportunities
Power-Packer's comprehensive range of leg sizes accommodates nearly all truck, trailer, and specialty vehicle chassis platforms. Key features include:
- Booster options: 3.5" or 4" bore sizes for varying load requirements
- Extended travel range: 15" to 30" adjustment capacity
- Corrosion resistance: Non-exposed piston rods withstand harsh environments
- Integrated construction: Eliminates external oil lines that could bend or break
- Robust design: Maximizes durability and reliability
- Stable base: Integrated feet minimize ground settlement
- Safety lock valves: Maintain position even during pressure loss
- Service-friendly design: Easy lock valve maintenance without full disassembly
The air-over-hydraulic control box converts emergency brake circuit air pressure (100 psi) into powerful hydraulic lifting force. Operators can choose between:
- Standard control boxes rated for 50,000 lbs
- Heavy-duty systems handling up to 70,000 lbs with optional auto-boost
The heavy-duty control box's optional auto-booster enables single-button leg extension for maximum operational efficiency.
Power-Packer provides comprehensive installation kits containing all necessary hoses, fittings, connectors, and mounting hardware. Additional components include support ring assemblies for securing leg units and matching mounting plates for simplified installation where conventional mounting points are unavailable.
Through innovative hydraulic technology, Power-Packer continues advancing safer, more efficient loading solutions for modern logistics operations.
