Classifications of Scissor Lifts & Aerial Lift Platforms
Scissor lifts and aerial platforms enable employees to work on elevated structures in a safe manner and enable them to reach things and structures. These lifts and platforms provide friendly user controls to maneuver the platform and the base independently. This allows the machinery to get around objects. There are numerous lift designs available which are suited for specific applications and settings.
Scissor Lift
Utilizing a series of crisscrossed connected steel arms, the scissor lift is designed to create an X patterned support system when the lift is raised vertically. Workers make use of a large rectangle platform which is connected to the top of the lifting device. There are support railings along the edges to provide added protection.
Scissor lifts are ideal for pavement, hard and compact dirt surfaces and concrete as they feature a low profile. These machines utilize either an electric motor or a combustion engine to power the lift and the lifting mechanism.
Rough Terrain Scissor Lift
Rough terrain scissor lifts make use of the same technology as the regular model of scissor lift. The rough terrain model varies in that it features a specialized base which is designed for uneven surfaces. The rough terrain also offers a higher ground clearance and oversized all terrain tires. These models offer lower lifting heights overall because of the machine's higher center of gravity.
Telescopic Boom Lift
The telescopic boom lift provides a telescoping beam that rises both diagonally and vertically. This equipment offers a small work platform outfitted with controls to operate the boom. The controls use a combustion or an IC engine in order to power the hydraulics and lift the boom.
Articulating Boom Lift
An articulating boom lift has two telescopic booms which are connected with a moving elbow. This lifting machinery provides a bucket or a small working platform outfitted with hand controls which are used to control the boom. The articulating lift can reach on top buildings and over things.
The majority of warehouses use the smaller three thousand lb. to 4000 pound lift trucks. If you run a small operation and require only one truck, this forklift size is a practical and ideal alternative. The standard forklift is a wide aisle truck which requires at least 11' aisles to turn in. The width of the aisle is determined by the turn radius, the truck size as well as the size of the load. Options and attachments which are available consist of slip sheet attachments, hydraulic clamps, side shifts and fork shifts.
Reach trucks or double-deep reach, stand-up reach, and straddle reach trucks are a specially designed narrow aisle reach truck for racked pallet storage. This particular unit measures 8' to 10'. The reach truck has telescoping forks and uses outriggers in front as well as a hydraulic scissors-type mechanism. The hydraulic scissors type of mechanism enables you to lift the load and retract it over the outriggers. This design allows the operator to turn in a narrower aisle by reducing the overall load length of the truck.
