Types of Articulating Man Lifts
Man lifts are available in a variety of electric powered and engine powered models, depending upon the function and the industry. These reliable machinery can be utilized for a variety of jobs and applications. Like for example there are outdoor lifts which are capable of rising more than 140 feet and provide a horizontal extension of 69 feet. What's more, there are smaller types of man lifts which can extend 36 feet and extend 21 feet horizontally.
Normally, electric powered man lifts are utilized indoors on concrete slabs and have slim body designs in order to access narrow spaces. Normally, engine-powered man lifts run on gas, propane and diesel and are mostly utilized for outdoor applications.
Electric Man Lifts
Electric man lifts are an excellent option for indoor applications, since 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 kinds of man lifts are capable of easily fitting and maneuvering into tight areas. They are capable of reaching overhead work areas.
There are some electrical lifts that have a platform which could rotate to allow for more targeted maneuvers. The lift controls were made specifically for more maneuverability and accuracy. The electric lifts are offered in a lot of sizes for using in places with high ceilings and inside small warehouses or similar environments. The electric drive could operate on rechargeable batteries that are typically recharged overnight and then could be used in the morning.
The engine powered articulating lifts can be used on a wider range of terrains. Some types of these lifts are fitted with legs that could lift the body of the lift off of its wheels in order to create a very stable platform. Other articulating lifts have been designed for use on rough and uneven ground.
