Services
Explosion Proof Aerial Lifts
Our explosion-proof aerial lifts meet ANSI A92.20 and FM Class standards for hazardous environments. Featuring advanced load-sensing technology and sealed electrical components, these lifts ensure safety in aerospace and industrial settings where flammable materials exist. Custom configurations include retrofitting proven platforms or ground-up engineering to prevent ignition risks.
Glass Lifters
Glass lifters integrate suction cup attachments and 3-axis manipulators for secure handling of heavy or fragile materials. Designed for efficiency, these systems reduce labor costs and installation time in commercial and residential projects. Models like the MC Omni and Brandon series offer maneuverability in tight spaces while maintaining precision.
Mini Cranes
Mini cranes provide strength and adaptability in confined spaces, lifting heavy loads for construction and industrial applications. The MC series includes tracked and omnidirectional models for uneven terrain and high-rise installations. Attachments enable versatility in handling materials like marble, steel, and ductwork.
Collision Avoidance Systems
Collision avoidance systems use laser sensors to detect obstacles and prevent accidents in high-risk environments. Compatible with boom and scissor lifts, these systems automatically stop equipment before impact, protecting workers and machinery in aerospace and defense operations.
Clean Room Man Lifts
ISO-compliant cleanroom lifts feature non-shedding materials and sealed systems to maintain contamination-free environments. Designed for pharmaceutical, semiconductor, and aerospace facilities, these lifts ensure product integrity while providing safe access in controlled spaces with strict compliance requirements.
