Terex Articulated Boom Lifts

Kinds of Construction Lifts or Boom Lifts
A boom lift is a piece of machine which enables employees to carry out tasks without having to construct a scaffolding. They are utilized to work on elevated structures, to do maintenance work and are common machines found in warehouse and factory settings as well.

Boom lifts would normally offer powered and wheeled bases which can drive itself to the work place and have a platform on them to lift the employees. There are many different types of lifts and each and every one is suitable to different tasks and settings.

Bucket Trucks
Bucket trucks or cherry pickers, are built with a long boom that has a bucket attached at the end. This bucket area is where an employee can stand. Normally, bucket trucks are used by landscapers and by utility workers. Landscapers often use these machines to prune trees.

Every bucket truck has a boom assembly mounted to a regular truck, which allows these vehicles to move swiftly on regular roads. Additionally, this increases the area that this machinery could service effectively. This is particularly important for power companies. Like for instance, a lot of these businesses utilize cherry pickers to elevate employees up so they could reach and work on transmission lines. The buckets must be checked on a regular basis and properly insulated since they are working close to possible shock hazards.

Articulated boom lifts are also called "knuckle lifts", and have a work platform which is mounted on an arm that is able to bend in order to reach around obstacles. The base of the lift contains a turntable and can turn the lift in a full circle. The base of the lift is mounted on wheels as well for extra mobility.

Articulated boom lifts are utilized for landscaping projects and are useful for maintenance work on already-completed projects that do not need easy access to the area directly beneath the jobsite. These lifts could be used for exterior electrical work and to repair piping, as well as areas which are hard to clean. Usually knuckle lifts are driven by the employee in the platform with the boom extended.
