Summary: Transporting
personnel vertically
Manlifts are a broad category of aerial work platforms (AWPs) designed to lift personnel to access elevated work areas. While the term "manlift" is sometimes used interchangeably with other AWP terms, it can also refer to more specific types of lifting equipment.
Function: Manlifts provide a safe and efficient way for workers to reach heights to perform various tasks, such as:
* Maintenance and repairs
* Installation work
* Inspection
* Stock picking in warehouses
Types: The term "manlift" can encompass several types of AWPs, including:
* Scissor lifts: Primarily
for vertical lifting.
* Boom lifts: Offering both
height and reach over obstacles.
* Personnel lifts: Smaller,
lightweight units designed for one or two people.
* Vertical mast lifts: Providing vertical reach with a compact footprint.
Safety: Manlifts are designed with safety features like guardrails, harnesses, and emergency stop controls to protect workers at height.
