An impressive combination of usability and longevity, Blue Giant Hydraulic Dock Levelers are high-performance systems that operate at the touch of a button. Strategically welded enhanced J-beams provide an exceptional level of structural sturdiness, improving product lifetime.
Hydraulic deck and lip cylinders increase operating efficiency and reduce maintenance requirements, resulting in a significantly lower cost of ownership compared to mechanical units. Optional independent lip control is available for all models, decreasing both cycle time and energy use (Blue Genius® Touch Control Panel required).
Superior craftsmanship, ease of operation, and a robust suite of advanced safety features make the Blue Giant Hydraulic Dock Leveler an ideal choice for increased productivity at the loading dock.
LOAD CLASSIFICATION - Tool to select your Dock Leveler
The Blue Giant Air-Powered Dock Leveler operates safely and efficiently under the toughest conditions: temperature extremes, heavy operations, and exposure to caustic substances.
THE POWER OF AIR
Air-Powered performance is activated by a single push button control station, requiring no bending or pulling on the part of the operator. The blower motor inflates a two-stage airbag via high-volume, low-pressure (HVLP). After releasing the button, the bag deflates, setting the platform on the trailer bed. This air lifting system is an environmentally-friendly alternative to oil-powered hydraulics. A redesigned lip operation system provides positive powered deployment and automatic release when lowering on trailer bed or storing in parked position.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

PVC-coated polyester fibers make the airbag resistant to chemical or puncture damage
Mechanical fall-safe legs prevent platform free-fall, minimizing risk of worker injury and equipment damage
Platform flexes up to 4" (102 mm) under load, maintaining full-width contact between the lip and the truck bed
Optional DLB, traffic light system, and truck restraint options for a fully integrated loading dock safety system

Touch Controls - dock levelers and vehicle restraints
An LCD menu screen displays equipment status as well as instructions for operating and troubleshooting. The interior and exterior LED lights communication system sends safety signals to dock staff and truck drivers. A rotary disconnect cuts power to the unit for routine servicing and maintenance.
Because its NEMA4X-rated polycarbonate enclosure is wet and corrosion-resistant, the panel can be installed in the wash-down zone and outdoor locations. It is also compatible with FDA-regulated operations, such as pharmaceutical and chemical handling locations.
With most dock controls, the box must be replaced to add equipment or change functions, resulting in expensive downtime. The Master Control Panel is microprocessor-based, making the process is as simple as a software upgrade. The new equipment configuration is ready for use within minutes

The Blue Genius™ Gold Series I controls powered dock levelers, and is available with either sequential or independent lip control. Features include onboard diagnostics, touch-sensitive function buttons and keypad, and a STOP button that can halt dock leveler operation should an emergency arise.
- Deploy powered dock levelers safely and efficiently
- Interior and exterior LED lights communication system available as an upgrade
- Recommended for busy facilities requiring rapid and safe dock leveler performance
The Single Push Button Control (SP2) operates a standalone airbag or pit-style hydraulic dock leveler.
The Single Push Button Control (SP1) operates a standalone, pit-style hydraulic or air-powered dock leveler via a constant-pressure "I" (UP) button.
In-Plant Lifts
The Blue Giant Manual Turn Lift Tables are designed to enhance operator ergonomics and productivity, by reducing the necessity to reach across, or walk around a load. These units are ideal in applications that require pallet loading or pallet unloading. 90° to 180° detents can be added to increase operator efficiency.
Lift Assist Solutions
Cormac Industrial® designs to reduce operator effort and fatigue, increasing their productivity and improving quality of work. They are the perfect backup in material handling.
Ergonomic Solutions
Easy and safe movement
Low maintenance cost
Adjustable Up/Down speed
Centrifugal safety brakes
508mm (20") float range
Lubrication free
Capacity from 54 kg (120lbs) to 635 kg (1400 lbs)
Vertical travel 1000mm (39") - 2000mm (78")
Required pressure 1000 PSI (min 70PSI)
Multiple trolleys and suspension
Designed for lifting and positioning applications, it replaces the use of the handle away from the load. Gives the operator the feeling of flotation, which allows them to have greater control of the suspended load.
Capacity is determined by available air pressure and the rated capacity of the stick or hoist
Steel construction
Handling variable weight loads
Ergonomic grip
Adjustable operating speed
Compatible with Air Balancers and Pneumatic Hoists

HVLS Industrial Fans
The Blue Giant Eagle VI fan has an innovative blade design that moves more air with less energy. The six-airfoil system increases air velocity in summer and de-stratifies hot air pockets in winter, resulting in an energy cost reduction of up to 30%. In many cases a return on investment can be realized in less than two years.
The Eagle VI fan keeps indoor temperatures at comfortable levels in warehouses, sporting facilities, open-concept offices, and other high-ceiling locations. It can also reduce building costs by lowering required HVAC tonnage and duct work.

The AutoPilot was designed to make operating multiple Blue Giant fans a breeze. Building managers can group fans to be controlled together, or operate each one separately.
The 6" (153 mm) x 3.375" (86 mm) LCD touchscreen display panel allows users to fine tune individual fan speeds and change fan rotation with just a touch. For added safety, the controller ties into the building fire system to shut down in case of emergency.
The AutoPilot also features a cutting edge temperature probe system that will automatically adjust fan speeds based on temperature parameters set by the user.
