Selection Guide: Choosing the Right Aerial Work Platform
Aisle Width (Ast)
For indoor activities, consider the machine’s aisle width. Choosing the suitable aisle width for scissor lifts can reduce overall business costs and improve efficiency.
For a boom lift, aisle width is less critical.
Work Environment
If your daily operation requires operators to carry materials and tools, scissor lifts are ideal.
For outdoor work, where you need to move around obstacles with precision, a boom lift is the better choice.
Floor Condition and Gradeability
Both platforms need good floor conditions. While they can move across slopes depending on gradeability, a flat surface is recommended for safe aerial work. Scissor lifts are more sensitive to floor conditions, whereas boom lifts can handle tougher slopes thanks to higher gradeability.
