Does it have security assurance function
Unlike lifting machinery, due to the high risk of high-altitude operations, curved arm aeriale work platforms place great emphasis on ensuring the safety of operators. The curved arm high-altitude work platform is equipped with control devices both inside the platform and on the side of the chassis, which can control the start/stop, high/low speed of the equipment. The arm is controlled by an electro-hydraulic proportional valve, and the working arm can rotate continuously left and right. It automatically maintains the level of the work tank through the linkage mechanism. When the hydraulic pump fails, the emergency button can be operated to lower the platform, and it has functions such as night lighting and safety alarm. However, the modified crane has no safety protection function, and once a malfunction occurs, the personnel inside the basket will have no way to rescue themselves.
Differences in design focus
Simply put, a curved arm aerial work platform is a tool used to transport people for high-altitude construction, which determines that every design on the vehicle needs to ensure the smooth and safe operation of personnel in the suspended basket. Therefore, whether it is a hydraulic or electrical system, the first thing to solve is the smoothness and stability of equipment movement. Because every shaking brings psychological and physical discomfort to the workers. And lifting machinery is naturally designed with lifting capacity as the focus, and a certain degree of shaking and elastic bending of the boom under load are usually normal.
The gap in homework ability
In addition to scissor lifts, there are two commonly used types of aerial work platforms: straight arm and curved arm. Especially for curved arm aerial work platforms, the flexibility of the platform is greatly improved through the folding arm frame and the rotation ability of the work platform, allowing it to extend freely in narrow spaces. In addition, the operating functions inside the platform also ensure work efficiency. The modified crane obviously does not have such capability.
It can be seen that although the modified crane has similarities with the aerial work platform, the arm aerial work platform is safer and more efficient.
