Classifications of Scissor Lifts & Aerial Lift Platforms

Aerial platforms and scissor lifts enable workers to work on elevated structures in a safe way and allow them to get to objects and structures. These platforms and lifts offer friendly user controls to maneuver the platform and the base separately. This enables the machine to access objects. There are many available lift designs that are suited for specific applications and settings.



Scissor Lift

The scissor lift uses a series of crisscrossed linked steel arms. These arms are designed to make an X patterned support system when the lift is raised vertically. Employees utilize a big rectangle platform which is attached to the top of the lifting mechanism. There are support railings along the edges to provide added protection.



Scissor lifts are ideal for pavement, hard and compact dirt surfaces and concrete because they feature a low profile. These equipments utilize either an electric motor or a combustion engine to power the lift as well as the lifting device.



Rough Terrain Scissor Lift

Rough terrain scissor lifts utilize the same technology as the standard model of scissor lift. The rough terrain unit varies in that it features a specialized base that is designed for surfaces that are not even. The rough terrain even provides oversized all terrain tires and a higher ground clearance. These models offer lower lifting heights overall due to the higher center of gravity of the equipment.



Telescopic Boom Lift

The telescopic boom lift offers a telescoping beam which rises both diagonally and vertically. This machine offers a small work platform equipped with controls to operate the boom. The controls make use of an IC or a combustion engine in order to power the hydraulics and lift the boom.



Articulating Boom Lift

Articulating booms have two telescopic booms connected together with a moving elbow. This lifting equipment provides a small work platform or a bucket outfitted with hand controls which are utilized to control the boom. The articulating lift can reach over objects and on top of buildings.
