Why Make Your Custom Aerial Work Platform a Scissor Lift?

Custom scissor lifts offer multiple organizational benefits, including:

Improved Worker Safety

Your workflows and processes are individual to your operations and facilities. When those processes often occur at heights, approaching them with conventional solutions like ladders and scaffolding comes with measurable risk. Climbing down from these and moving them around creates more opportunities for operator fatigue. Plus, the potential for injuries from falling, twisting and reaching increases.

A custom scissor lift helps mitigate these risks by providing easier mobility and ergonomic access while working at heights. Additionally, features like rails provide a structural barrier that aids in fall protection.

Maximum Configurability

Custom-designing a personnel scissor lift allows you to tailor the equipment to your needs and production processes. Options available include:

  • Different-sized platforms
  • Various platform shapes, extensions and roll-outs to maneuver around obstacles like machinery, equipment or product
  • Custom lifting heights
  • Platform amenities like hose reels, overhead festooning systems, tool trays, auxiliary air connections for pneumatic tools, power outlets and environmentally rated lighting
  • Specialized power options, including pneumatic, electromechanical, pneumatic-hydraulic and electric-hydraulic

Enhanced Maneuverability

Adding a custom scissor lift to your facility also enables better maneuverability than scaffolding and ladders. These lifts may be fully portable or drivable and can include features like pivoting caster wheels that allow navigation of tight spaces.

Additionally, you can tailor your lift with base customizations such as the following:

  • Higher bases for clearing ground obstacles
  • Rail- or track-guided options
  • Different base control choices

High Efficiency

Custom scissor lifts boost efficiency in your production workflows since they’re specifically engineered for your processes and environment. These solutions improve access to traditionally hard-to-reach areas, supporting higher productivity. 

Custom-engineered options also lessen the risk of employee injury and equipment or product damage to reduce downtime. Plus, you can design your personnel scissor lift as a working platform that complies with regulatory requirements, preventing unnecessary financial loss.

Exceptional Versatility for Many Applications

Industrial scissor work platforms are versatile pieces of equipment that bring value to numerous applications and production workflows, including:

  • Painting and coating
  • Welding and grinding
  • Surface preparation
  • Product assembly
  • Equipment inspections and maintenance
  • Vertical farming and inventory access
  • Product assembly and installation
  • Fall protection
  • Wash down and clean rooms

LPI offers an option for trained technicians to assist with the start-up and installation of your LPI industrial lifts which includes training for both your operators and your maintenance personnel. This service is also available after the sale as a refresher or augmentation to your current training or maintenance program. To learn more about Lift Operator Training, Start-Up Installation, and Lift Maintenance Programs, please contact LPI customer service or call 1-800-657-6956

Lifts should be inspected at least once a year, and more often if they’re used heavily or in harsh environments. Key wear items should be checked during routine maintenance, and any parts showing damage or excessive wear should be replaced right away. We recommend following your facility’s safety practices along with the inspection and maintenance guidance outlined in ANSI A92.22 Sections 5.4 and 5.5 to keep your lift operating safely and reliably.

Installation instructions are located in the Operators Manual that comes with your lift system (located in the plastic holder in the operator platform). Lifts should only be installed by qualified personnel. If you have any questions with regard to the installation of your lifts, please contact LPI customer service or call 1-800-657-6956.
