Greater horizontal outreach can be obtained with telescopic booms rather than any other kind of aerial platform. These machines are great for places that provide limited access in industrial and construction situations.
Telescopic booms have reach capacities varying from 31 feet 8 inches or 9.65 meters to 80 feet and 24.38 meters. These models offer working height up to 46 feet or 14.20 meters to 40.15 meters or 131 feet 2 inches. Telescopic boom nomenclature normally includes a reference to the platform height of the boom in order to know the capacity of the equipment.
Telescopic booms are really productive on the worksite since they offer the speed, torque and traction needed to get the job done. Though the equipment are built large enough to reach higher, they are still compact enough to fit great in tight areas. The full-time oscillating axle and the positive traction system offered by the rough-terrain units enable the rough jobsites to be handled with precision and ease. Additionally, some specialized models offer extendable axles which offer stability and retract for easy transportation. There are various diesel engine alternatives available on the market also.
Lift Options
Picking the best lift to meet their needs will allow operators to maximize their productivity on the jobsite. Additionally, customizing the chosen lift will help ensure that employees get the specific equipment they really require for projects.
Normally, lifts have a variety of platform options, starting with the platform size. Operators might need to choose from steel platforms ranging in size from 1.22 meters to 2.44 meters or from 4 to 8 feet. There are a variety of platform accessories available to help customize the lift for its specific application. Platform accessories may consist of the following items: half-height mesh, fluorescent tube caddy, control box cover, auxiliary top railing, welder leads, tool tray and work lights.
There are lots of different options and attachments available on the market these days. Companies are trying to diversify their machinery as much as they could in order to meet all their many different customer needs. It is truly worth the research to find out what specific options your telescopic boom lift has the capabilities of using.
