Classifications of Scissor Lifts & Aerial Lift Platforms
Scissor lifts consist of a series of crisscrossed steel arms, linked up to create an X pattern. When the crisscrossed arms are extended, the platform is vertically raised. There are support railings along the edges of the lifting apparatus in order to help secure the workers' tools and keep them safe.
The scissor lift has a low profile, best utilized for smooth surfaces like concrete, pavement and hard dirt surfaces. These machines utilize either a combustion engine or electric motor in order to move the lift and power the lifting apparatus. The operator must move the lift itself if she or he has to travel horizontally, because the lift apparatus only operates the lift in a vertical manner.
Rough Terrain Scissor Lift
The rough terrain scissor lift and the standard scissor lift use the same lifting technology. The key difference is that the rough terrain models feature a different base which is particularly made for uneven surfaces. These units also provide higher ground clearance and oversized all terrain tires. The rough terrain scissor lifts use 4-wheel drive so as to easily navigate through difficult and muddy terrain.
Telescopic Boom Lift
The telescopic boom lift uses a telescoping beam that raises both diagonally and vertically. This specific unit has a small work platform which houses controls to be able to control the boom. The controls work with a combustion engine in order to power the hydraulics which power the boom and move the lift. The telescopic boom lift has off-road capable tires and is an independent lift model.
Articulating Boom Lift
There are two telescopic booms on the articulating boom lift. These are attached with a moving elbow apparatus. This lifting equipment has a small work platform or a bucket which is equipped with hand controls in order to control the boom. These are stand-alone lifts that are powered by a combustion engine. Articulating boom lifts are offered with either off-road or hard surface tires. These lifts are designed in order to reach over top of and on top of buildings.
Aerial Mast Lift
The aerial mast lift uses a telescopic mast in order to raise a work platform vertically into the air. Usually, these lifts are pneumatic powered or electrically powered and are self-propelled machines. These equipment offer an ideal solution for working in high racks in narrow warehouse aisles. It is really important to remember that aerial mast lifts are not recommended for off-road use and are limited to vertical movement.
Bud Bushnell founded Genie Industries during 1966, after he bought the manufacturing rights to a material lift that operated on compressed air. The name Genie came from the "magic in the bottle" which was used to lower and raise the hoist. This mechanism really impressed a lot of clients and therefore, the name was established.
Genie has moved into numerous new markets, since the demand for work platforms and lifts grew. Over time, as the requirements for new machinery to meet numerous applications grew, the company made itself recognized in many new markets. Like for example, Genie went into production with man-lifts, articulated booms, light towers telehandlers and stick booms.
Due to the economic recession in the beginning of the 2000s, Genie decided to obtain a partner who held the same values. They partnered up with Terex Corporation. This company has a history obtaining machine manufacturers all around the globe who proved to be a good business match. Genie Industries was sold during 2002 and became a part of Terex Corporation.
Because of the Genie name and its solid reputation within the workplace, it was decided to maintain the Genie brand as part of the Terex Aerial Work Platforms. This was only decided after the first few years following the sale. Therefore, all Genie machines continue to be sold under the Genie brand name.
The company takes great pride in taking advice from and listening to their clients. Genie has always been continually devoted to improving the quality and efficiency in addition to lessening wastes. Even long after the sale has been closed, the company focuses on providing exceptional support. These are the very work practices which have made Genie a trusted brand name over the last decades and continue to keep their reputation for top-of-the-line and quality equipment.
Genie's Bi-Energy and DC equipment are emission-free, quiet machinery capable of working in delicate work settings. Where the equipment should be driven significant distances, like for instance within industrial situations, the Genie bi-energy system combines the advantages of a 48V DC machinery with the power of a diesel-powered generator.
Telescopic booms provide more horizontal reach, compared to any of the various aerial platforms. These equipment are ideal for limited access areas or small areas in all types of settings. The Genie Telescopic S booms have been engineered to offer utmost productivity. These machines deliver supreme traction and the drive speed\the drive speed and supreme traction you require in order to travel around the work site and job area.
