What is a Scissor Lift? The name is quite common among contractors in the installation and construction fields. A scissor lift, also known as a vertical lift, operates in an upright position. The design of a scissor lift features interlocking crisscrossed arms that stack to form an “X” shape, allowing for vertical lifting and lowering. Therefore, the term for a scissor lift in English is “Scissor Lift.” That is also the name that people commonly use.
The main components of a Scissor Lift
On a scissor lift, there are the following detailed components:
- Platform extension
- Manual storage container
- Platform control
- Lanyard anchorage point
- Platform guard rails
- Platform extension release pedal
- Main Platform
- Platform entry gate
- Scissor arms
- Lift cylinder
- Ground controls (on opposite side of machine)
- Entry ladder
- Brake release pump
- Non-steer tire
- Battery charger
- Pothole guard
- Steer tire
- Safety arm
Scissor lifts are primarily used on flat surfaces. They utilize two types of engines: electric and diesel. Electric-powered lifts are typically used indoors, while diesel-powered lifts are commonly used outdoors in areas with rough terrain.
Electric Scissor lift
It is a device that uses a battery to store energy, operating smoothly with no noise and zero emissions, making it very environmentally friendly. This type of lift is suitable for indoor work environments with a high number of people.
With this equipment, it is important to manage the stored electricity for limited periods of use. Therefore, when using it, you need to plan for charging the battery to ensure it can operate for about 8 hours each day.
Diesel Scissor lift
The diesel engine type typically uses a generator and operates on diesel fuel. This equipment always runs powerfully and stably, and can operate continuously for many hours without the risk of running out of power, unlike electric models.
However, the operation of diesel engines tends to be noisy and produces emissions, making them more suitable for outdoor work environments and areas with fewer people.
What are the applications of a Scissor Lift?
Once you understand its main components and operating principles, you may wonder what tasks a scissor lift is suitable for. In Vietnam, scissor lifts are widely used in construction and maintenance fields:
- Installing electrical and electromechanical equipment: Installing air conditioning ducts, fire protection systems, etc.
- Roof repairs
- Installing decorative tiles on walls and partitions
- Installing banners and advertising signs
- Trimming trees in public areas, playgrounds, schools, and hospitals.
These are typical applications to help you visualize their use. Each scissor lift is designed for different working heights, ranging from 6 meters to 58 meters. Therefore, for each task and elevated work position, you should choose the appropriate lift to best meet your work requirements.
