Overview
The Autoquip Titan is a heavy duty scissor lift table designed to combine the compact size and flexibility of a small lift with the lifting capacity and edge load handling of a much larger one. This unique combination makes the Titan one of Autoquip’s most versatile products for in‑plant applications where floor space is limited but load requirements are demanding. Capacities range from 1,000 to 15,000 lbs with travel from 13 to 96 inches and collapsed heights starting as low as 6 inches.
What sets the Titan apart from the Series 35 and other standard‑duty lifts is its ability to handle disproportionately high edge loads relative to its narrow footprint. End load ratings reach up to 8,000 lbs and side load ratings up to 6,500 lbs on select models—capacities that typically require a much wider or heavier lift table. This makes the Titan the go‑to choice for sheet feeding operations, coil handling, and any application where heavy materials are rolled or slid on and off the platform from the ends or sides.
Features and Benefits
The Titan’s compact narrow base frame keeps the lift’s footprint small while its reinforced construction handles loads well beyond what its size suggests. Lifetime lubricated bearings and direct‑thrust lifting cylinders provide long‑lasting performance with minimal maintenance. Heavy gauge steel construction minimizes platform deflection under load, keeping materials flat and stable during lifting and positioning.
Chrome‑plated, 100,000 psi ultimate‑strength pins at every joint deliver premium load strength and long service life. Solid steel legs with added stiffeners provide optimal stability and straight roller tracking. Standard controls come prewired, and models use either remote or internal power units with a 1.5 HP motor. Double wire‑braided Parker hydraulic hoses resist wear, abrasion, and leaks. On‑board maintenance devices let crews safely block open the scissors during inspection. Autoquip backs the Titan with a 2‑year warranty on all parts.
Safety and Compliance
Hydraulic velocity fuses completely stop the lift in the unlikely event of uncontrolled descent from a sudden hose rupture. A minimum 3:1 structural factor of safety ensures reliable performance. Each unit complies with ANSI MH29.1 for industrial scissor lifts, NFPA 70 National Electric Code, ASTM A36 structural steel standards, ANSI Z535 safety labeling requirements, AWS D.1 welding standards, and applicable portions of OSHA 29CFR1910 for general workplace safety.
Applications
The Titan is purpose‑built for applications where high edge loads and heavy capacity are needed in a compact package. Common uses include sheet feeding in metal fabrication where flat stock is slid onto the platform from the end with high end load forces, paper or metal coil handling where coils are rolled on and off the deck, wood panel feeding in woodworking and furniture manufacturing, work positioning where operators need to raise heavy parts to working height in tight production cells, and any application where the combination of a narrow base frame, low collapsed height, and high edge load ratings creates an advantage over wider lift tables.
Selection Assistance
Choosing between the Titan and other Autoquip product lines depends on your capacity requirements, edge load demands, and available floor space. For general‑purpose applications up to 15,000 lbs with standard edge loads, the Series 35 offers a wider variety of platform configurations. For applications above 15,000 lbs, the Super Titan family provides extreme capacity. The Titan is the right choice when your application demands high edge loads and heavy capacity in a compact, narrow footprint that the Series 35 cannot match.
