Productivity Applications 9/15 - Mobile Elevated Work Platforms

All functions and movements can be controlled using Sensata’s platform control systems and sensors to guarantee compliance with international safety standards.

Self-propelled scissor lifts, the most common type of mobile elevating work platforms move vertically through folding supports known as the scissor mechanism. They are classified in two main categories based on how they are powered and where they are used. Battery powered (or electric) scissor lifts are used mainly indoors on slab surfaces, while the engine powered ones are used outdoors on rough terrain surfaces.

Regardless of how they are powered, they have many sensors and controls to manage movement, safety, and mainly stability (operators on the platform are subject to fall hazards, therefore safety is a priority).
For decades, Sensata, through its DeltaTech Controls branded products, has been a market leading supplier of complete platform control systems for scissor lifts, either battery or engine powered.
