Articulating Boom Lifts are undoubtedly the most versatile Mobile elevating work platforms ("MEWP") that makes your work easy in almost every field. From painting walls and windows to the entertainment industry, etc. These amazing cherry pickers have got you covered.
Articulating boom lifts, also known as knuckle booms, are a type of aerial work platform designed to provide access to hard-to-reach areas by offering a combination of vertical and horizontal reach capabilities. Unique design, featuring multiple hinged sections, allows articulating boom lifts for greater flexibility and manoeuvrability compared to other types of lifts. This makes them indispensable in various industries, from construction and maintenance to film production and tree care.
Unique design feature of articulating boom lifts is the articulated arm, which consists of several boom sections connected by pivot points. This configuration enables the lift to navigate around obstacles and access confined spaces that straight telescopic booms cannot reach. The boom sections can be adjusted independently, allowing the operator to position the platform with precision. The ability to extend both vertically and horizontally makes articulating boom lifts particularly useful in complex environments.
Safety is the most crucial concern that comes to your mind while using these boom lifts. Furthermore, articulating boom lifts are fully equipped with several safety features including guardrails, harness attachment points, and emergency descent systems. Advanced models may also have electronic stability controls, tilt sensors, and automatic platform levelling to enhance safety and stability during operation.
However, efficiency is somewhere synonymous with these boom lifts as their ability to quickly and accurately position workers reduces downtime and increases productivity. Many models are equipped with electric or hybrid power systems, offering quieter operation and lower emissions, which is particularly beneficial for indoor and urban use.
The choice of the ideal Articulating Boom Lift that suits you, would depend on the following factors:
These cherry pickers are mostly suitable indoors and they emit less carbon emissions. However, as battery technology develops working heights are increasing.
