ESF50 and ESF50D Electric Scissor Lift Tables for Material Handling
The SINOLIFT ESF Series Electric Scissor Lift Table Truck combines electric hydraulic lifting with a mobile load platform for workshop, warehouse, and stockroom tasks. The ESF50 and ESF50D both have a 500 kg rated capacity. Their main difference is lifting geometry: the single-scissor ESF50 reaches 1000 mm, while the double-scissor ESF50D reaches 1720 mm.
For operators packing cartons, preparing components, or transferring materials between work areas, load height affects everyday movement. Goods placed too low can require repeated bending, while an unsuitable transfer height makes positioning more difficult. An adjustable platform helps bring compatible loads to a more convenient level as the task changes.
The ESF range uses a reinforced steel platform, thickened scissor arms, a hydraulic lifting system, and a four-wheel chassis with stabilizing support legs. Footprint, platform height, load distribution, and handle arrangement should be considered together when selecting a model. The appropriate configuration depends on both the material being handled and the workplace layout.
Why use a mobile electric lift table?
A mobile lift table can serve several nearby workstations where goods need both movement and height adjustment. In a warehouse, that may mean raising cartons during sorting and packing. In a workshop, it may involve positioning parts beside an assembly bench or inspection area. The platform supports the material while the operator adjusts its working level.
Electric hydraulic lifting reduces the manual pumping associated with repeated height changes. This is useful when the same load must be repositioned several times during a task. Mobility also allows the equipment to move between suitable work areas, provided the route, floor, and operating method are appropriate for the supplied configuration.
The ESF50 and ESF50D are material-handling tables. Their listed platform heights describe goods positioning, rather than approval for lifting people. Buyers should match the platform and support arrangement to the actual load, including any containers, fixtures, or packaging that contribute to its total weight.
Engineering highlights
Electric hydraulic lifting
Electric controls operate platform lifting and lowering, reducing the effort of repeated height adjustments during loading, packing, and workstation preparation.
Single or double scissors
Choose the single-scissor ESF50 for a 1000 mm maximum height or the double-scissor ESF50D for positioning up to 1720 mm.
Reinforced steel platform
Steel reinforcement beneath the platform and thickened scissor arms provide structural support. The specified rated load is 500 kg on either model.
Hose burst protection
The hydraulic circuit includes a hose burst valve designed to limit rapid descent if a hydraulic hose ruptures. It complements correct operation and maintenance.
Mobile chassis and stabilizers
The four-wheel chassis supports movement between work areas, while support legs stabilize the truck during lifting. Follow the supplied instructions for travel and support deployment.
Protective powder coating
A heat-cured powder-coated finish helps protect the carbon steel platform. Cleaning methods, abrasion, and environmental exposure remain relevant to long-term surface condition.
How to choose between ESF50 and ESF50D
Start with the required pickup and placement heights. The ESF50 operates between 460 and 1000 mm, while the ESF50D operates between 470 and 1720 mm. A task centered around a lower workbench may suit the single-scissor arrangement. A higher transfer point may require the double-scissor model, subject to load and installation compatibility.
Both models provide a standard platform measuring 1020 x 610 mm, with a 1045 x 610 mm platform listed as optional. Review the footprint of the load and how it rests on the table. A longer platform option should be selected for an identified support requirement, rather than assumed to change the rated capacity.
The listed maximum chassis length is 1193 mm and overall width is 667 mm on both models. Overall height is 1100 mm, with a control handle height of 1030 mm. Check the available approach space, doorways, workbench edges, and transfer points. These dimensions describe the machine; load overhang may require additional clearance.
The parameter sheet identifies ESF50 with a fixed handle and ESF50D with a central steering tiller. The product description groups lift, lower, and travel functions at the handle. Confirm the supplied control arrangement and movement functions when ordering, particularly if the work involves tight positioning or frequent transfers.
Wheel configuration also deserves attention. The description lists pneumatic and polyurethane options depending on the model, while the dimensional table specifies 180 x 50 mm drive wheels and 150 x 50 mm steering wheels. Confirm the actual wheel material for the order against the floor finish, route, and rolling requirements.
A 60 Ah battery capacity is listed for both configurations. Battery voltage, chemistry, charging details, and tested runtime are not specified in the supplied table. Provide the expected lifting frequency, load, and working schedule when reviewing battery suitability. Capacity alone cannot establish the number of operating hours between charges.
The higher platform range comes with a weight difference. ESF50 has a listed net weight of 194 kg, compared with 241 kg for ESF50D. Both retain the same 500 kg capacity, so the double-scissor model should be chosen for its additional height rather than an expectation of heavier lifting. For a facility using several workstations, identifying the lowest pickup and highest placement point at each station makes the comparison more useful than selecting on maximum height alone.
Common buyer questions answered
Do both models carry the same rated load?
Yes. ESF50 and ESF50D each list a 500 kg rated capacity. Review the intended load distribution and any fixtures with the supplier before use.
What changes with the double-scissor model?
ESF50D raises the maximum platform height to 1720 mm. It also has a 470 mm minimum height, 241 kg net weight, and central steering tiller.
Is a larger platform available?
The standard platform is 1020 x 610 mm. A 1045 x 610 mm platform is listed as an option for both models.
What are the lifting and lowering speeds?
The table lists lifting speed of 50-100 mm/s and lowering speed below 150 mm/s. Confirm operating conditions when estimating a particular cycle time.
Can the table be moved with a raised load?
Follow the supplied instructions for permitted travel height, stabilizer use, and load restraint. Maximum lifting height should not be treated as an approved travel position.
How does the hydraulic protection work?
The described hose burst valve limits rapid platform descent following a hose rupture. The sealed cylinder and pump also support controlled lifting and lowering during normal use.
