The types of aerial work platforms can be classified based on their structural and functional features.
The types of aerial work platforms can be classified based on their structural and functional features. The following are several common types of aerial work platforms and their characteristics:
Telescopic boom aerial work platform (Code S) : The feature of this vehicle is that it has a telescopic boom, which can adjust the working height and range through the telescopic boom without changing the working position. It is suitable for places such as shipyards that require a higher working height, featuring high safety and mobility convenience, but the cost is relatively high.
Folding boom aerial work platform (Code Z) : The boom of the folding boom aerial work platform can be folded, with a compact structure and small floor space. It is suitable for use on narrow urban streets or in places with limited working space. It has good mobility and operational flexibility and can quickly reach the working position.
Hybrid aerial work platform (Code H) : This type of vehicle combines the features of telescopic booms and folding booms, possessing the advantages of both. It can perform folding operations on the basis of a telescopic arm, further enhancing the flexibility of the operation and the efficiency of space utilization, and is suitable for complex or variable working environments.
Vertical lift aerial work platform (Code C) : The working bucket of the vertical lift aerial work platform has a heavy load capacity, but the working height is limited, with poor mobility and inflexiveness. Currently, the folding boom lift aerial work platform is widely used in China.
Self-propelled aerial work platform: The self-propelled aerial work platform is equipped with walking and steering drive functions. It does not require manual towing or external power supply. The user can control the mechanical lifting and walking without getting off the lifting platform. It is flexible and convenient to move and is widely used in factory workshops, warehouses, shopping malls and other places.
Scissor lift aerial work platform: The scissor mechanical structure of the scissor lift aerial work platform ensures high stability when the lifting platform is lifted. The wide working platform and high load-bearing capacity make the high-altitude operation range larger and suitable for multiple people to work simultaneously.
