Greater horizontal outreach could be acquired using telescopic booms more than any other type of aerial platform. These types of machinery are excellent for places which offer limited access in construction and industrial situations.
The capacities of CAT's telescopic booms range from 31 feet 8 inches or 9.65 meters to 80 feet and 24.38 meters. These models provide working height up to 14.20 meters or 46 feet to 40.15 meters or 131 feet 2 inches. Telescopic boom nomenclature typically includes a reference to the boom's platform height in order to identify the capacity of the equipment.
Because they provide the speed, torque and traction required to get the job done, telescopic booms have been really productive on the worksite. While the machines are built huge enough to reach higher, they are still compact enough to fit great in tight spaces. The full-time oscillating axle and the positive traction system provided by the rough-terrain units enable the rugged jobsites to be handled with precision and ease. Furthermore, some particular models offer extendable axles which retract for easy transportation and offer stability. There are many diesel engine choices offered on the market too.
Lift Options
Picking the right lift to meet their requirements will allow operators to maximize their productivity on the jobsite. Furthermore, customizing the chosen lift would really help ensure that employees get the particular machinery they need for projects.
Normally, lifts have a variety of platform options, starting with the platform size. Operators might need to choose from steel platforms ranging in size from 1.22 meters to 2.44 meters or from 4 to 8 feet. There are a range of available platform accessories to help customize the lift for its particular use. Platform accessories could include the following items: half-height mesh, fluorescent tube caddy, control box cover, auxiliary top railing, work lights, welder leads and tool tray.
On the market these days there are a lot of available attachments and options. Companies are trying to diversify their machines as much as possible to be able to meet all their many different customer needs. It is truly worth the research to find out what specific alternatives your telescopic boom lift has the capabilities of using.
