Greater horizontal outreach can be obtained with telescopic booms rather than any other kind of aerial platform. These kinds of equipment are great for places which provide limited access in industrial and construction situations.
Telescopic booms have reach capacities ranging from 9.65 meters or 31 feet 8 inches to 24.38 meters and 80 feet. These models offer working height up to 14.20 meters or 46 feet to 40.15 meters or 131 feet 2 inches. Telescopic boom classification normally includes a reference to the platform height of the boom in order to know the capacity of the machinery.
Telescopic booms are very productive on the worksite because they provide the torque, traction and speed required to get the job completed. While the machinery are built huge enough to reach higher, they are still compact enough to fit great within confined areas. The full-time oscillating axle and the positive traction system offered by the rough-terrain models enable the rough jobsites to be handled with precision and ease. Moreover, several particular units offer extendable axles which provide stability and retract for easy transportation. There are many diesel engine options offered on the market also.
