Used Manitou Aerial Lifts Costa Mesa

Many workplace applications will need more reach than the usual job. The articulating and telescopic booms is a great alternative for these specific instances. Electric or engine powered or bi-energy booms are great for outdoor, indoor or rough-terrain use, so basically, there is a suitable boom lift available for each kind of task. Simply take the time to figure out what kinds of capacities you will require to get the job done and what type of cargo you would be dealing with.

Articulating booms are described as aerial work platforms that use multiple boom sections which articulate or hinge. These machinery offer a maximum reach of 21 feet 5 inches or 6.25 meters to 21.26 meters or 69 feet 9 inches. These units could vary in height between 36 feet and 11.14 meters or 43.15 meters or 141 feet. Articulated boom models are usually classified by horizontal reach and by platform height.

To access work areas over obstacles and barriers including machinery or shelving, the articulating booms are usually used. They have less horizontal outreach than telescopic booms, but the articulating booms provide greater versatility and better positioning. This enables better access for overhead work areas from aisles and from tight areas. Throughout the range of articulating booms, most of them are able to hold weight capacities of up to 500 pounds or 227 kg. These machines could easily lift 2 operators and their tools and at times extra supplies.

There are both rough terrain and industrial articulating booms, like scissor lifts. Industrial units are often outfitted with non-marking tires and are made for indoor use. The majority of articulated boom manufacturers use clean burning fuels like LPG or liquid propane gas or DC electric power for their industrial models. AC drive system technology is popular in industrial forklifts, though it is new to the market of aerial work platforms. This technology combines 3-phase AC drive motors together with DC batteries for more continuous control of turning, drive speed and braking and overall energy efficient operation.

Rough-terrain models are specially designed to negotiate rugged construction site locations. With features such as lug-tread tires, diesel engines, an oscillating axle and 4-wheel drive, these specialized items are common-place on rough-terrain articulating booms. These heavy-duty add-ons are what really make these machinery able to withstand the rough settings they work in.
