YG Machinery supplied a portable hydraulic lift to a logistics center in Germany. The warehouse had high racks at 8 meters. Workers used ladders and manual lifts for stock picking. It was slow. Workers got tired. Accidents happened.
The company switched to a YG0810 hydraulic scissor lift platform. Workers stand on a stable platform. They raise and lower with one touch. The lift moves easily between aisles.
Picking speed doubled. Injuries dropped to zero. The warehouse manager said no more ladders and no more tired workers.
Customer Background
The logistics center in Germany manages high-bay storage for a retail distribution network. Racks reach 8 meters high. Stock pickers work eight-hour shifts.
Before upgrading, workers climbed ladders or used manual push-around lifts. Each trip up and down took time. Workers got tired by midday. Accidents happened. Someone slipped off a ladder. Someone pinched a finger on a manual lift.
The warehouse manager needed a safer, faster way to pick items at height.
Ladders and Manual Lifts Were Not Working
Ladders had several problems. Workers climbed up and down dozens of times per shift. Each climb took time. Carrying items while climbing was risky. One slip could cause serious injury.
Manual lifts were better than ladders but still slow. Workers had to pump a handle to raise the platform. That took effort. Workers got tired. Tired workers make mistakes.
Neither option was efficient. The manager started looking for an electric scissor lift for sale that could solve these problems.
Why This Portable Hydraulic Lift Was Selected？
The warehouse manager searched online for a portable hydraulic lift. He found YG Machinery’s website and saw the YG0810 model.
Several features made this the right choice.
Stable platform. The hydraulic scissor lift platform gives workers a secure place to stand. No wobbling. No climbing. Workers focus on picking, not balancing.
One-touch controls. Push a button to raise. Push a button to lower. No manual pumping. No tired arms.
Easy movement. The self-propelled drive moves the lift between aisles. One worker operates it alone. No need for a second person to push.
Compact size. The lift fits through standard warehouse aisles. It turns easily in tight spaces.
Zero emissions. The 24V electric motor produces no exhaust. Safe for indoor use. Quiet enough for a working warehouse.
The manager chose the YG0810 mobile hydraulic lift platform for its combination of safety, speed, and ease of use.
YG0810 Portable Hydraulic Lift
Here is what the Germany warehouse received:
| Specification | YG0810 |
| Working height | 8.0 m |
| Load capacity | 450 kg |
| Platform size | 2.27 x 1.12 m |
| Folded dimensions | 2.48 x 1.19 x 1.78 m |
| Weight | 2360 kg |
| Power | 24V DC electric |
The electric scissor lift runs on battery power. A full charge lasts a full shift. The operator drives the lift to the picking location, raises the platform to the correct rack level, picks items, lowers, and moves to the next location. No ladders. No manual pumping.
Picking Speed Doubled, Injuries Dropped to Zero
The results came quickly.
Speed improved. Each worker now picks three times more items per hour. The time saved on climbing and moving adds up to hours per shift.
Safety improved. No ladder accidents. No pinch injuries. The stable platform keeps workers secure at height.
Workers are less tired. One-touch controls mean no physical effort. Workers finish their shifts with energy to spare.
The warehouse manager calculated the payback. The portable hydraulic lift paid for itself in months from productivity gains alone.
