Product Information

  • Name : Aerial work vehicle
  • SKU : BLT-107
  • Category : aerial-work-platforms

An aerial work vehicle is a special-purpose vehicle based on a truck chassis, equipped with a hydraulic lifting boom and a manned work platform. It can lift workers, tools, and materials to elevated positions for construction and maintenance operations. It is mainly divided into four categories: telescopic straight-arm, folding knuckle-boom, hybrid boom, and scissor vertical lift. Relying on a hydraulic system to perform boom extension, rotation, and lifting actions, it can overcome obstacles for fixed-point operations, replacing traditional scaffolding for high-altitude work, significantly improving safety and operational efficiency.

**Working Principle** After the vehicle reaches the operating position, it extends the hydraulic outriggers around the chassis to support and level the ground, locking them in place to prevent rollover during lifting. The onboard hydraulic pump station drives the slewing base to rotate 360°, and then controls the multi-section boom to extend or fold in stages, lifting the manned work platform at the end to the target high-altitude position. The operator can fine-tune the boom's direction, height, and amplitude either from within the platform or via a wireless remote control. After the operation, the boom and outriggers are retracted in sequence, allowing the vehicle to move to the next site. The entire machine is equipped with multiple safety devices such as overload limit, power-off lock, and emergency lowering. In case of sudden failure, the platform can be manually depressurized and lowered to the ground. **Application Areas** 1.
