Self Propelled Scissor Lifts

Scissors lifts are work platforms that are able to lift operators or equipment up to specific heights for work.
Scissors lifts can be found to operate with the use of Hydraulic, Pneumatic or Electrical power. The scissor pack is extended or retracted in order raise or lower the platform to the desired height. Traditionally Scissor Lifts were designed as industrial lifts however many variants are now available to suit a whole host of other applications in both, Construction, Commercial, Manufacturing, Retail and Wholesale environments.
Scissor Lifts offer many advantages over other types of Work at Height equipment such as boom lifts or Cherry pickers. Due to the larger flat platform area of a scissor lift it is possible to carry heavier and larger loads. The nature of the Scissor Lift mechanism means that the load is distributed evenly across the lift allowing for a more stable operation. Having a larger platform area means operators have more flexibility with regards to the work carried out by the Scissor Lift.
Today scissor lifts can be seen operating in many sectors including warehouses and storage facilities. Mobile lifts can be designed to negotiate both smooth ‘slab’ surfaces or uneven terrain.
