Types of Aerial Lifts: How to Choose an Aerial Work Platform

Do you know about aerial work platform lift? What types of boom lift are there? What are different types of platform lift used for? What are their specific uses? Let's talk about the relevant aspects of lifting platform with you.

 

The more common aerial work platforms in daily life include mobile lifting platform, articulated arm lifting platform, aerial scissor lift, Self-propelled lifting platform, and spider crane lifting platform. Different platform vehicles have different uses.

 

1. Electric/diesel mobile lifting platform vehicle

 

The main features of electric lifting platform vehicles are that they do not require manual operation, are convenient and flexible, can control the lifting speed, do not need to understand the power supply, and have certain automatic walking capabilities; this kind of platform vehicles are often used in large stadiums, train stations, airports, etc. Important places appear that can help people do effective work.

 

2. Articulated lifting platform vehicle

 

The articulating lift platform truck is mainly used for outdoor high-altitude operations. The most important feature is that it can work across space and small areas, and can meet the requirements of working in poor conditions. It is also very useful for work in some culverts or mining areas. It can also walk automatically and is very convenient to operate.

 

The articulating arm lifting platform (i.e. the lifting platform vehicle) is an alternative to the folding arm lift. The whole machine adopts a folding working arm, which can perform overhanging operations. It has the advantages of light weight, self-propelled, electric start, self-supporting legs, simple operation, large range of action, 360-degree free rotation, and can cross certain obstacles. It is currently widely used in municipal administration, power stations, shopping malls, docks, fire departments, residential properties, factories, mines and workshops, sports venues and other occasions.

 

3. Scissor lift platform

 

The scissor lift platform is a widely used special equipment for high-altitude operations. It uses hydraulic oil to lift the scissor arms. The scissor arms are made of rectangular tubes made of high-strength steel and are equipped with safety features to prevent the hydraulic pipeline from rupturing. Protection valves, lifting platform safety protection devices and emergency lowering devices in case of power outage, etc. This kind of arm structure can make the whole machine have a larger range of action, load-bearing capacity and higher stability after lifting, and can transport more materials and workers, greatly improving its operating efficiency. However, when the scissor-type structure is retracted, due to its large size, it can only be lifted vertically, and its stability is poor, its working range is small, and its lifting height is not very high, generally no more than ten meters. At present, this type of product is widely used in mobile high-altitude workplaces such as installation and maintenance of high-altitude equipment in various industries.

 

4. Self-propelled lifting platform

 

The power source of the self-propelled lifting platform is an external power supply and engine, so it has the functions of walking and steering driving. Compared with the vehicle-mounted lifting platform, it cannot travel long distances and can only be used in a certain area; compared with the tractor-type lifting platform, the self-propelled lifting platform is not only smaller in size, but also has the function of automatic walking and can be used indoors Or used in a narrow area; under different working conditions, no external power supply is required, and no external power traction is required. Only one person can operate it to continuously complete all operations such as forward, backward, up and down, and steering during the work process. Therefore, It is very convenient and quick to use. It is especially suitable for large-scale occasions such as shopping malls, docks, stations, indoor lobbies, residential properties, airport terminals, stadiums, factories, mines and workshops.

 

5. Spider crane lifting platform

 

The spider lift platform is a "spider leg" type high-altitude working equipment that can work on uneven ground, stepped ground, sloping ground and other ground. It has strong working ability and the ability to climb slopes and stairs. Compared with the straight-leg type, this lifting platform has better stability, so the "spider-leg" type lifting platform is generally used when the lifting height is above 21m.

 

In fact, the use of lifting platform trucks is very extensive in life. Its appearance and use can greatly improve people's work efficiency and safety, and it is deeply loved by users.
