What Are The Main Types Of Lifts For Aerial Work? What's The Difference?
A lift platform, also known as a lifting work platform, is a multi-functional lifting mechanical equipment, usually used for rescue and decoration. Generally, it can be simply divided into scissor type, guide rail type, and aluminum alloy. Among them, the scissor type is divided into fixed scissor lift, mobile scissor lift, self-propelled scissor type aerial work platform; the guide rail type is divided into guide rail chain type lift, guide rail straight top type lift; Two-mast, three-mast, four-mast, multi-mast aluminum alloy lifts.
Some people may not understand this technical term. As a professional Lift Platform supplier, Shandong Cathay Machinery Co., Ltd. will briefly introduce some of them here so that you can distinguish them. They are roughly divided into the following categories:
1. Fixed lift table
A fixed lift is a fixed transport device that lifts items from one height to another. Due to the weight and volume of the objects it lifts, it is safe and stable, so the fixed lift is a special form of aerial work lifting platform and should be classified as hoisting machinery. The main function is to carry goods up and down between various working floors. The cargo lifting equipment with a wide range of applications is mainly used for the transportation of goods between the height differences of the production line; upgrade.
2. Hydraulic freight elevator
The hydraulic lifting freight elevator is a special hydraulic lifting platform product used for transporting goods between building floors. It is mainly used for the up-and-down transportation of goods between various working floors, and the lifting of cars between the floors of three-dimensional garages and underground garages. The hydraulic system of the product is equipped with anti-falling and overloading safety protection devices, and operation buttons can be set on each floor and the working table of the lifting platform to realize multi-point control. With large load capacity, stable lifting, and simple and convenient installation and maintenance, it is the most ideal cargo conveying equipment for economical and practical replacement of elevators between low floors.
The lifting system of the elevator is driven by hydraulic pressure, so it is called a hydraulic elevator. Hydraulic lifts are widely used in hotels, guesthouses, hospitals, factories, etc., reducing the labor force and effectively improving work efficiency.
3. Vehicle-mounted lift
The vehicle-mounted lifting platform is refitted from a lift and a car. It receives the power of the car engine to realize the lifting function of the lift and is suitable for lifting operations with large flows. Its form is to fix the lift on the battery truck or truck, and it is usually suitable for high-altitude operations inside and outside the factory area. Widely used in high-altitude operations in hotels, buildings, airports, stations, stadiums, workshops, warehouses, and other places; it can also be used as temporary high-altitude lighting, advertising, etc.
4. Construction lift
A construction hoist is a construction machine that uses a cage to carry people and loads up and down along the guide rail. According to its transmission mode, it can be divided into three types: rack and pinion type, wire rope type, and hybrid type. It consists of a cage, chassis, guide rail, guide rail frame, guide rail frame section, attached station frame, counterweight, ground protection fence and safety protection device, and other construction hoists.
Ps: The cage is a general term for the cage-shaped parts used to carry people or goods, and the platform or bucket-shaped container with side guardrails used to carry materials; the chassis is a frame used to install construction elevator guide rail frames and fences; The guide rail frame is a metal frame used to support and guide the operation of hanging cages, counterweights, and other devices; the wall-attached frame is to connect the guide rail frame and buildings or other fixed structures at a certain distance so that the counterweight of the components supporting the guide rail frame is a counterweight. The cage is a weight that acts as a balance; the ground fence is a fence on the ground that surrounds the cage. It is mostly suitable for construction projects and construction sites.
