Telescopic booms other than any other kind of aerial platform have greater horizontal outreach. These kinds of equipment are excellent for locations which provide limited access in construction and industrial situations.
Telescopic booms have reach capacities varying from 9.65 meters or 31 feet 8 inches to 80 feet and 24.38 meters. These units provide working height up to 46 feet or 14.20 meters to 40.15 meters or 131 feet 2 inches. Telescopic boom nomenclature typically includes a reference to the platform height of the boom in order to identify the equipment's capacity.
Telescopic booms are very productive on the worksite since they offer the torque, traction and speed required to get the job completed. Even though the machinery are built really big to reach higher, they are still compact enough to fit great in tight areas. The positive traction system and the full-time oscillating axle provided by the rough-terrain units allow the rough jobsites to be handled with precision and ease. In addition, some particular models offer extendable axles that offer stability and retract for easy transportation. There are multiple diesel engine options offered on the market also.
Lift Options
Picking the best lift to meet their requirements will enable operators to maximize their productivity on the jobsite. Also, customizing the chosen lift will help ensure that employees get the specific machine they need for projects.
Typically, lifts have a range of platform options, starting with the platform size. Operators might have to choose from steel platforms ranging in size from 1.22 meters to 2.44 meters or from 4 to 8 feet. There are different types of platform accessories available to help customize the lift for its particular use. Platform accessories could comprise the following things: half-height mesh, fluorescent tube caddy, auxiliary top railing, control box cover, tool tray, work lights and welder leads.
On the market today there are so many available attachments and options. Companies are attempting to diversify their machines as much as they could to be able to meet all their various customer needs. It is worth the research to know what specific options your telescopic boom lift could use.
