Types of Articulating Man Lifts
Depending on the function and the industry, man lifts are offered in various engine-powered and electric powered models. These machinery are great for various applications. Like for example there are lifts designed for outdoor use which are capable of rising more than 140 feet and provide a horizontal extension of 69 feet. In addition, there are smaller models that can extend 36 feet and extend 21 feet horizontally.
Generally, electric powered man lifts are utilized indoors on concrete slabs and have slim body designs to be able to access narrow spaces. Typically, engine-powered man lifts are mainly designed for outdoor applications and run on gas, propane and diesel.
Electric Man Lifts
Since they do not give any pollution and come in small enough sizes to maneuver around blockages and barriers and fit through standard-sized doorways, electric man lifts are an ideal choice for indoor applications. These models are capable of maneuvering and fitting into tight areas easily. They are capable of reaching overhead work areas.
Several electric lifts have a rotating platform that is particularly for targeted maneuvers and offers precise abilities. The lift controls have been designed for accurate maneuverability and efficiency. The electric lifts are available in lots of sizes for using in areas with high ceilings and in small warehouses or similar environments. The electric drive can operate on rechargeable batteries which are normally recharged overnight and then can be used in the morning.
The engine powered articulating lifts could be utilized on a wider range of terrains. Some kinds of these lifts are fitted with legs that could lift the body of the lift off of its wheels in order to create a highly stable platform. Other articulating lifts have been designed to be utilized on grounds that are uneven and rough.
