Kinds of Articulating Man Lifts
Depending on the industry and the function, man lifts are offered in various electric powered and engine powered models. These machines are suitable for various applications. Like for instance there are outdoor lifts that provide a horizontal extension of 69 feet and are capable of rising more than 140 feet. Moreover, there are smaller models which could extend 21 feet horizontally and extend 36 feet.
Normally, electric powered man lifts are used indoors on concrete slabs and have slim body designs in order to access narrow areas. Typically, engine-powered man lifts are mainly used for outdoor applications and operate on propane, diesel and gas.
Electric Man Lifts
Electric man lifts are an ideal option for indoor use, 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 models are capable of easily fitting and maneuvering into tight areas. They are capable of reaching overhead work areas.
There are several electrical lifts that have a platform that could rotate to allow for more targeted maneuvers. The lift controls were made specially for more maneuverability and accuracy. The electric lifts are available in numerous sizes for utilizing inside small warehouses or similar environments and in areas with high ceilings. The electric drive is capable of operating on rechargeable batteries that are normally recharged overnight and then could be utilized in the morning.
The engine powered articulating lifts could be used on a wider range of terrains. Some kinds of these lifts are fitted with legs which are capable of hoisting the body of the lift off of its wheels in order to create a very stable platform. Other articulating lifts have been designed to be used on grounds that are uneven and rough.
