Types of Articulating Man Lifts
Depending upon the function and the industry, man lifts are available in a variety of engine-powered and electric powered models. These machines are suitable for various applications. For example there are lifts designed for outdoor applications which are capable of rising over 140 feet and provide a horizontal extension of 69 feet. Moreover, there are smaller models which could extend 36 feet and extend 21 feet horizontally.
Electric powered man lifts are generally utilized on concrete slabs indoors. These machinery tend to have slim body designs which enable them to work in narrow spaces. Normally, engine-powered man lifts are generally designed for outdoor applications and run on propane, diesel and gas.
Electric Man Lifts
Electric man lifts are an ideal option for indoor applications, because they do not pollute the air. They also come in small enough sizes that could maneuver them around blockages and barriers to fit through standard-sized doorways. These models are capable of fitting and maneuvering into tight spaces easily. They are capable of reaching overhead work areas.
There are several electrical lifts that have a platform which could rotate to allow for more targeted maneuvers. The lift controls were made specially for more maneuverability and accuracy. The electric lifts are offered in lots of sizes for utilizing in areas with high ceilings and inside small warehouses or similar settings. The electric drive is capable of operating on rechargeable batteries that are typically recharged overnight and afterward can be used in the morning.
Engine-powered articulating lifts have been designed for many types of terrain. Several types of these lifts are fitted with legs that could hoist the body of the lift off of its wheels in order to create a a platform that is highly stable. Other articulating lifts have been designed for use on uneven and rough ground.
