Likewise called aerial work platforms, boom lifts include a bucket mechanism or platform that is connected to a hydraulic hoisting system. This kind of aerial work platform is usually found mounted on a flat back pickup van, also called a "Self Drive." Boom lifts are also offered on a self-moving platform, or on a stand-alone trailer. They are usually mounted on the back of a truck and in this case, usually referred to as a "bucket truck."
Boom lifts have an attached bucket that is intended for a person to stand in and work from. There is commonly a duplicate set of controls which are used to be able to control the position of the bucket. The driver in the bucket could position themselves. Some boom hoists include telescoping lifting arms which allow much flexibility as far as the reaching capacity is concerned. Normally, there are automatic safety controls so as to avoid the machine from tipping over. When operating in tight areas, articulated boom lifts are more available than stick booms, particularly if the application requires clearing surrounding obstacles.
Initially meant for use in orchards, boom lifts are still a popular sight in different agricultural applications. This equipment allows the fruit picker to pick fruit high in a tree with relative ease. Similar machinery is utilized by cable and telephone businesses and electrical providers who do installation and maintenance on utility poles. Boom lifts could even be used for hanging Christmas light displays and banners.
Numerous fire trucks utilize a boom lift rather than a ladder. This boom lift is called a snorkel and there are some window cleaners who utilize them. Boom lifts are utilized in various trades. They are commonly relied on for exterior painting, and by arborists who have to work safely within high trees. Boom lifts are usually found in the construction trade.
There are segments of the entertainment business who utilize boom lifts. One instance is Michael Jackson, who normally began live performances of his hit song "Beat It" while being on a moving boom lift. There were instances he daringly hung off of the equipment while holding onto the bars with his hands and feet for added effect. Movie sets use boom lifts on a regular basis for hanging lights and props and helping with set decorating too.
The overall result of how well the equipment's functions work together is categorized by the performance of the equipment. The overall efficiency of the equipment is determined by a combination of user-friendliness, capacity, lifting speed and visibility.
The engine and the working hydraulics undergo extreme lifting and this places intense demands on the machine. The lifting component is only a part of the operating cycle. Prior to the machine being able to unload or load, the demands are placed on effective brakes, tight turning radius with high pulling process and accurate control. All of these functions should be able to operate in an optimum fashion, even after heavy usage.
Each empty container handler is made with a straight six cylinder turbo charged engine equipped with an intercooler. The engines are adapted to the specific working conditions of empty container handling. These conditions include high power and high torque levels at low engine speeds.
The engines of current models comply with the strict legal environmental demands that are presently in the industry. The engines offer low vibration and noise levels, low exhaust emission levels, low fuel use characterize all engine alternatives.
All of the trucks in the series are equipped with exceptional and really durable hydrodynamic transmission systems. For quick acceleration with a minimum of "clutch-slip" the transmission has incorporated gearbox and torque converter. The gear changing is electrically attained by solenoid valves. These provide 3 reverse and 3 forward gears which are controlled by means of a multifunction lever that is easily operated.
The drive axles are designed to handle the extreme and tough working settings in ports and in terminals. All axles have reduction in 2 stages - differential and hub reduction. These features guarantee a minimum of strain on the transmission system. Moreover, the drive axles are fitted with a hydraulic braking system.
All empty container handlers have wet disc brakes with oil cooled discs which are alternately fixed to and rotating with the hub. The disc brakes are pressed together by hydraulic pressure from the brake pedal, when the brakes are engaged. This provides effective braking to the unit. The system could cope with heavy loads over a long period of time and is practically maintenance free. This system offers no fade and requires no need for brake adjustments.
