Once the equipment selection is wrong, it can result in low efficiency, serious safety hazards, and secondary procurement costs. The core of purchasing Aluminum Alloy lifting platforms is the matching process of operating parameters such as load capacity, height, passage size, and performance stability. By clarifying the key issues, there will be no directional errors in the selection process.
150KG Load capacity is a standard configuration for carrying small tools by a single person, and whether it is sufficient depends on the job content and the weight of the personnel.
This load capacity level is suitable for single person high-altitude operations, such as lamp replacement, pipeline maintenance, and equipment inspection. If two people need to perform on stage at the same time or carry heavier spare parts or welding equipment in the homework, a higher load capacity must be selected.
The minimum height is the height when the equipment is in a contracted state, which directly affects whether the equipment can pass through standard door openings and low passages smoothly.
EMET can customize the base and equipment dimensions according to customer needs. Before purchasing, it is recommended to measure the height of the door opening, the width of the passage, and the size of the elevator car at the work site, and then confirm the specific external dimensions with the manufacturer to avoid the inability to pass through the building passage during equipment transfer.
The weight of the entire machine directly affects the floor load and transportation method, and the load-bearing capacity of the operating position should be calculated before procurement.
Although the aluminum alloy lifting platform is lighter than steel structure equipment of the same specifications, the total weight of 800kg plus personnel and load is close to 1000kg. If the equipment needs to be pushed up to the second floor or attic for operation, it is necessary to confirm whether the floor load-bearing capacity meets the requirements. In terms of transportation, 800KG equipment usually requires small trucks or pickups for transportation. If there are no lifting auxiliary equipment on site, it is necessary to confirm whether the equipment is equipped with suitable lifting points or push wheels.
The stability reduction is mainly determined by the hydraulic system configuration and structural rigidity. When purchasing, attention should be paid to the brand and overall structural form of the hydraulic power unit.
EMET selects genuine hydraulic power units in the production of hydraulic lifting platforms, which is the basis for ensuring controllable lifting processes and reducing jerkiness. For aluminum alloy lifting platforms, the material should be lightweight while ensuring structural rigidity, otherwise the shaking sensation of the platform will be significantly enhanced during high-altitude operations. Judgment method: Firstly, check the cylinder diameter and sealing form of the hydraulic cylinder. Secondly, understand the design of the clearance between the platform guide wheel and the column. If the stability is not handled properly, the body shaking of the operator during precision maintenance or installation on the platform will directly affect the accuracy of the operation. Working on the shaking platform for a long time can also easily cause dizziness and increase the risk of falling.
A lifting time of 1 minute is a common level and has limited impact on the efficiency of a single operation, but the cumulative time during frequent lifting cannot be ignored.
The lifting time refers to the time required for the platform to rise from the lowest height to the highest working height. The lifting speed of 1 minute is within the normal range among similar products. If the homework pace is "up for half an hour, down for a different position", this speed is completely sufficient. But if it is a frequent lifting operation in an assembly line, such as lifting every 10 minutes, the accumulated waiting time for a day is quite considerable. Efficiency losses can be estimated based on the actual frequency of operations during procurement. If faster lifting and lowering are necessary, we can communicate with EMET to determine if the hydraulic system flow configuration can be adjusted.
