Aerial working platform, is a kind of people, construction materials and tools, through the operation of mechanical platform to a certain height, for a variety of installation, construction, maintenance and other construction operations of professional machinery and equipment.
Use of aerial working platform: At present, the use of aerial working platform has a wide range of commercial and civil applications, including but not limited to: airports, high-speed rail, construction, electricity, communications, cleaning, installation and maintenance, media photography, logistics and so on.
Advantages of aerial working platforms: Compared with the traditional traditional aerial work methods (such as scaffolding and manpower ladder), aerial working platforms are safer and more efficient, reflected in the following aspects:
1. Movable, good operational stability: Aerial working platforms, whether indoor or outdoor uneven, even need to climb the rough ground, there are different models to choose from, according to the needs of up and down, left and right, before and after the flexible movement, there is no centre of gravity shifting problem, stability and security.
2. Multi-function, multi-purpose: aerial working platform can be quickly raised or lowered to complete the material lifting, lifting and hoisting and manned aerial work and other functions, and at the same time for the expansion of the operating equipment and a variety of operating equipment for the rapid switching of the supply of the interface.
3. Reduce manpower requirements, time-saving and efficient: no manpower to build, separate scaffolding links, only need to operate the construction staff. And the flexibility during construction also greatly improves the working efficiency, quickly reaches the project time requirement and saves the operation cost.
Aerial working platform power classification
In order to adapt to indoor and outdoor applications, aerial working platform equipment mainly adopts the following 3 major power classifications:
1. Battery-driven: mainly used in the interior of buildings that require low-noise, low-emission machinery, and construction sites with high environmental requirements;
2. Fuel-driven: usually used in outdoor rugged terrain and complex road conditions, the need for greater driving force and traction tasks, the equipment is driven by a diesel engine;
3. Dual-energy drive: dual-energy drive, allowing the builder to flexibly switch between different construction scenarios.
Common Aerial Work Platforms
There are three common types of aerial working platforms: straight-arm aerial working platforms (straight-arm trucks), curved-arm aerial working platforms (curved-arm trucks) and scissor-type aerial working platforms (scissor trucks). Generally speaking, straight-boom trucks and curved-arm trucks are more widely used in outdoor aerial work scenarios, while scissor trucks are more commonly used in indoor scenarios.
1. Scissor-type Aerial Work Platforms
The scissor trucks suitable for outdoor use have the features of strong climbing ability, large traction, and fast speed; the scissor trucks suitable for indoor use have the features of compact model, light weight to enter the lift, and quietness and environmental protection.
Scissor-type aerial work platform truck has a wider operating platform and higher carrying capacity, and is suitable for multi-person operation, can carry construction personnel and tools.
2. Curved-arm aerial working platforms
The curved-arm aerial working platform can not only easily approach and bypass overhead obstacles, but also has an accurate positioning function, which can provide multi-directional positioning upwards, downwards and across. Curved boom trucks also have a wide range of applicable scenarios, such as municipal gardens, stations, airports and so on.
The advantage of the curved arm truck lies in its crossing obstacle function, so in the construction process that requires multiple crossing obstacles but does not have high height requirements for construction work, you can choose this model.
3. Straight-arm aerial working platforms
The straight-arm aerial working platform has a wide working range, strong lifting capacity and simple operation, which can greatly improve the construction efficiency of the construction site. Straight boom trucks have a wide range of applications, such as building construction and cleaning, equipment maintenance and installation. The advantage of straight boom truck over other aerial working platforms is that it can reach higher heights, so for construction work with high height requirements, you can choose this model.
