100% Manual MEWP vs Self-propelled MEWP.
Mobile lifting platforms for people or MEWPs, are available in different sizes and in different lifting systems, operation, characteristics and performance.
What is a 100% Manual Platform like?
- The 100% Manual MEWPs can be transported by an easy push to the place where you want to work.
- Once at the job site, lifting is also manual. They are the most suitable platforms for working at height in the same place, which does not require so much travel.
- 100% Manual platforms are usually cheaper and much easier to transport.
- They offer a working height similar to that of many self-propelled platforms.
- As well as a comparatively low floor load for sensitive indoor surfaces, such as hotels, supermarkets, gyms, theatres, stages…
- In all places where work must be done on a raised floor.
- They also offer compact manoeuvrability for tight workplaces, single or double-door accesses and lifts.
The 100% Manual platforms that we at Liftisa have opted for, considering them the best option, for these characteristic low-rise solutions, are the Liftisa Peco and the Liftisa Eco.
Our speciality is low-rise solutions, and we always advise our clients with the best option according to the work to be carried out and the space in which they must operate
Self-propelled MEWPs.
- Self-propelled MEWPs are equipped with drive systems that allow the machine to be driven to the work area, like a scissor lift.
- For larger spaces, construction sites, or areas that are very large, the ability to move around the entire terrain makes self-propelled MEWPs the most productive solution.
- Inclination (the ability to climb slopes) and orography (the ability to move over rough terrain). They also contribute to self-propelled MEWPs having high performance in construction projects.
- Other needs that require the use of Self-propelled MEWPs are the load capacity and the basket suitable for placing two people, their tools and materials.
The Self-Propelled platforms that Liftisa recommends are the Liftisa Leonardo and the Liftisa NanoSp and the 1930 Electric Scissors. Ideal solutions for electrical installers, plasterboard installers, facility services, etc.
