Kinds of Articulating Man Lifts
Depending on the function and the industry, man lifts are available in a variety of engine-powered and electric powered models. These machinery are great for a variety of uses. For example there are outdoor lifts that are capable of rising more than 140 feet and offer a horizontal extension of 69 feet. What's more, there are smaller models that could extend 21 feet horizontally and extend 36 feet.
Electric powered man lifts are usually used indoors on concreted slabs. These machinery tend to have slim body designs that allow them to work in narrow spaces. Normally, engine-powered man lifts are mostly utilized for outdoor applications and run on gas, propane and diesel.
Electric Man Lifts
Electric man lifts are an ideal alternative for indoor applications, as they do not pollute the air. They also come in small enough sizes which could maneuver them around barriers and blockages to fit through standard-sized doorways. These types of man lifts are capable of fitting and maneuvering into tight spaces easily. They are capable of reaching overhead work areas.
There are some electrical lifts which have a platform able to rotate to allow for more targeted maneuvers. The lift controls were made particularly for more maneuverability and accuracy. The electric lifts are available in numerous sizes for utilizing in small warehouses or similar settings and in areas with high ceilings. The electric drive is capable of operating on rechargeable batteries that are normally recharged overnight and then are ready to go in the morning.
The engine powered articulating lifts can be used on a wider variety of terrains. Several kinds of these lifts are fitted with legs that are capable of lifting 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 used on uneven and rough ground.
