Load handling attachment for push-arounds

UK based Aerial and Handling Services has launched a new version of its deckRailXtra materials handling attachment, the DRXmicro which has been specifically designed for use with the 11ft platform height Airo XLP5E push around scissor lift.

The DRXmicro can support loads up to 40kg

The company is planning to market the combined aerial work platform and material handling attachment as the IPAV - or Industrial Push Around Vertical, with a corrosion resistant zinc finish on the platform and the chassis as standard. With a 5.3 metre working height the lift offers a full 250kg platform capacity, including the DRXmicro attachment, which weighs just 10kg.

The attachment has a rated carrying capacity of 40kgs and the rear support arm swings out of the way in order to allow entry through the gate into or out of the platform.

Working height is 5.3 metres -11ft platform height-

The company said: “The special zinc coating is a deliberate rights protected design feature, as the galvanised coating provides a lifetime of cosmetic protection and makes the IPAV virtually corrosion free, perfect for the M&E sector and harsh environments. Regardless of any paint/dirt the lift is covered with when returned, the underlying impervious zinc substrate will not be affected no matter which method is used to clean it, a hot pressure washer and £10 decal set is all that’s required to turn it round ready for the next hire”.

“Having studied the low level market for some years we noticed there is no option for users of such equipment to safely restrain and support materials, by integrating the new DRXmicro with the Airo XLP5E we have created an entirely new concept for the Industry”.

This new compact attachment joins two material handling devices in the company’s deckRailXtra range, the DRXmulti and DRXplus , and can be fitted to other compact lifts. The new attachment and IPAV are now fully certified and available for delivery.
