Overview
The Bishamon LoProfile LX Series is an electro‑hydraulic low profile scissor lift table engineered for applications where the lift must sit nearly flush with the floor when fully lowered. With collapsed heights as low as 2.9 inches on models up to 1,100 lbs and 4.3 inches on models up to 4,400 lbs, the LoProfile allows pallet jacks, hand trucks, and wheeled carts to roll directly onto the platform without ramps, pits, or permanent floor modifications.
Nine standard models cover capacities from 550 to 4,400 lbs with travel up to 35.5 inches. Platform sizes range from 23.5 x 32.5 inches on the smallest models to 45.5 x 81 inches on the largest. The LoProfile operates on smooth electro‑hydraulic power with a remote power unit and hand‑held control for precise positioning. Every model includes a full perimeter electric toe guard that stops platform movement when an obstruction is detected—a critical safety feature for floor‑level lift tables.
Features and Benefits
The LoProfile’s defining advantage is its extremely low collapsed height. At 2.9 inches, the platform sits low enough for standard pallet jacks and low‑clearance carts to roll directly on and off without auxiliary equipment. This eliminates the cost and disruption of cutting a pit into the facility floor, which is the traditional alternative for achieving ground‑level loading access.
Heavy duty construction with captured scissor rollers provides maximum platform stability throughout the lift cycle. The external electro‑hydraulic power unit delivers smooth, consistent lifting performance with 24V operator control voltage for safe hand‑held operation. Durable steel braided hydraulic hoses resist wear and leaks. The full perimeter electric toe guard surrounds the platform and automatically stops downward movement when contact is detected, providing an important layer of operator protection during use near the floor.
Bishamon backs the LoProfile with a one‑year warranty from date of shipment against defects in materials and workmanship, backed by over 55 years of reliable performance.
Applications
The LoProfile serves applications where floor‑level loading access is required without a permanent pit installation. Common uses include pallet loading and unloading where operators use pallet jacks to roll pallets directly onto the platform, conveyor transfer where the lift must interface with a conveyor line at near‑floor height, production and assembly workstations where materials arrive on wheeled carts and must be raised to working height, shipping and receiving docks where loads must be accessed from floor level and raised for processing, and any facility where the existing floor cannot be modified for a pit‑mounted lift but ground‑level access is needed.
Selection Assistance
Choosing the right LoProfile model depends on your required capacity, platform size, and whether the 2.9‑inch or 4.3‑inch collapsed height is needed. The LX‑25 and LX‑50 models (550 and 1,100 lbs) achieve the lowest 2.9‑inch collapsed height in compact platform sizes. The LX‑100 models (2,200 lbs) collapse to 3.3 inches with medium platforms. The LX‑200 models (4,400 lbs) collapse to 4.3 inches with the largest platform options. For applications that do not require ground‑level access, Bishamon’s ALPHA series offers higher capacities in standard collapsed heights. Barron Equipment can help you select the right configuration.
