Aerial work platforms are vehicles specifically designed for working in the air. They can lift and lower to perform tasks such as street light maintenance, tree trimming, and overpass cleaning.
Aerial work platforms are vehicles specifically designed for working in the air. They can lift and lower to perform tasks such as street light maintenance, tree trimming, and overpass cleaning. Using them for aerial work is both efficient and safe. There are several different types, each with different applications. Based on the type of extension and lifting structure of the work platform, they can be divided into telescopic boom type, folding boom type, hybrid type, and vertical lift type.
1.Scissor lift aerial work platform
Advantages: The most widely used aerial work platform equipment, stable and safe, with a large working range.
Features: Scissor lift mechanism, working height generally ranging from 6 to 14 meters. The lifting platform offers high stability after lifting, and its large working platform and high load-bearing capacity allow for a wider working range and are suitable for multiple people working simultaneously. Power options are available to suit different requirements (e.g., three-phase AC, single-phase AC, DC, and internal combustion power). With the addition of a manual hydraulic system, it can continue operating during power outages or in locations without power. An extendable platform can be added to extend the platform to the required location when the length is insufficient, thereby improving work efficiency.
Applicable Scenarios: Suitable for mobile aerial work such as installation and maintenance of aerial equipment in various industries.
2. Straight boom aerial work platform
Advantages: Simpler operation, convenient design, good stability, reliable safety, and a significant advantage in height, making it a common piece of equipment for ultra-high-altitude work.
Features: Utilizes a telescopic boom structure to achieve high-altitude operations. The platform can rotate 360°, and can be operated from both the work bucket and the platform. The work platform can move safely from any boom position, with the travel speed decreasing as the lifting height increases.
Operating Environment: Adaptable to specific working environments, including humid, corrosive, dusty, high-temperature, and low-temperature environments.
3. Articulated boom aerial work platform
Advantages: Simple working structure, easy to operate, safe and reliable, and aesthetically pleasing. It is a high-altitude work equipment with optimized safety and work efficiency.
Features: Employs a folding boom (two-section or three-section), with a working height of 15-45 meters. The boom can rotate 360°, allowing operation from both the turntable and the work platform. The work platform can safely move regardless of the boom's position, with the moving speed decreasing as the lifting height increases. It is equipped with upper and lower control consoles (ground control and platform control), switched using a reversing switch.
Applications: Widely applicable to installation, maintenance, and high-altitude operations in industries such as municipal engineering, power, street lighting, advertising, telecommunications, photography, landscaping, transportation, docks, airports, ports, and large industrial and mining enterprises.
4. Truck-mounted aerial work platform
Features: Generally based on domestic brands, employing a lightweight boom design, offering a large working range, maneuverability, and high work efficiency. Large outrigger span ensures good stability; automatic outrigger reaction force detection stops operation if any outrigger becomes loose. The platform can be lowered in case of chassis power system failure, and the slewing mechanism can be manually rotated. The hydraulic cylinder piston rod is protected by a sleeve, and the boom head has a dustproof device.
Applicable Scenarios: Municipal road construction maintenance, street light maintenance, tree trimming, billboard maintenance, etc.

JIUHE Truck-mounted concrete pump
With the rapid development of the construction industry, methods for transporting concrete are constantly evolving. In the past, stationary concrete pumps (or "trailer concrete pumps") were the primary method, but truck-mounted concrete pumps ( also called "concrete line pump" )have now gradually become the mainstream choice.
Precautions for the Use of Trailer Mounted Concrete Pumps
The trailer-mounted concrete pump is a very common piece of construction equipment; favored by contractors for its compact size, ease of transport, and cost-effectiveness.
