Semi Electric Scissor Platform

Scissor Platform Electric Lifting 500KG 12m

  • High-Altitude Access: Models SJY0.5-6 through SJY0.5-12 provide maximum platform heights ranging from 6,000mm (19.7 ft) to 12,000mm (39.4 ft).
  • Heavy-Duty Payload: Engineered with a 500kg (1102 lbs) Safe Working Load (SWL), accommodating two operators and heavy industrial tooling.
  • Rapid Elevation: High-performance hydraulic cylinders achieve full extension in 50 to 80 seconds, minimizing downtime between tasks.
  • Stabilized Footprint: Deployable outriggers expand the base to 2,700mm x 2,200mm (106.3 in x 86.6 in), ensuring rigidity at maximum extension

The SJY Series is a robust semi-electric scissor platform designed for vertical stability in construction, facility maintenance, and warehousing sectors. Engineered for heavy-duty applications, this unit features a spacious 2,270mm x 1,150mm (89.4 in x 45.3 in) working deck capable of supporting a 500kg (1102 lbs) load. The equipment offers versatile power configurations, including 24V DC for mobile cordless operations and 220V/380V AC for stationary, continuous use. Powered by a high-torque 2.2kW to 3.0kW (2.95 HP to 4.02 HP) motor, the hydraulic system delivers smooth vertical ascent speeds between 50 and 80 seconds. With a collapsed height as low as 1,730mm (68.1 in) on the 6m model, the SJY series combines industrial-grade reach with compact storage capabilities.

Performance

Structural Stability & Outrigger Deployment

Safety at height is the primary engineering constraint for aerial work platforms. The SJY scissor platform mitigates sway and oscillation through a reinforced steel scissor stack and a wide-stance outrigger system. While the chassis width is compact for transport, the legs extend to create an overall operational footprint of 2,700mm x 2,200mm (106.3 in x 86.6 in). This expanded base is critical for maintaining the center of gravity when the platform reaches its maximum 12,000mm (39.4 ft) height. The substantial self-weight of the unit, ranging from 1,280kg (2,822 lbs) to 2,050kg (4,519 lbs), acts as an intrinsic counterweight, ensuring compliance with strict stability safety factors without external ballasts.

High-Efficiency Hydraulic Power Unit

Operational throughput is driven by a precision-engineered hydraulic system. Depending on the specific model height (6m to 12m), the unit is equipped with a lift motor rated between 2.2kW (2.95 HP) and 3.0kW (4.02 HP). This power density ensures that even at the full 500kg (1102 lbs) capacity, the lift maintains consistent ascent velocities. The SJY0.5-6 achieves full height in just 50 seconds, while the 12-meter SJY0.5-12 reaches peak elevation in 80 seconds. The hydraulic circuit is designed for durability, minimizing pressure drops and ensuring smooth, jerk-free stops for operator comfort and safety.

Optimized Deck Dimensions & Versatility

Unlike narrow personnel lifts, the SJY series prioritizes workspace utility. The platform dimensions of 2,270mm x 1,150mm (89.4 in x 45.3 in) provide ample square footage for multi-technician tasks, such as overhead piping installation or electrical conduit maintenance. The 500kg (1102 lbs) capacity allows for the transport of heavy welding gear or HVAC components alongside personnel. Furthermore, the unit offers dual-voltage flexibility; the 24V DC option allows for operation in sites without active power grids, while the 380V AC option supports high-cycle usage in manufacturing plants, eliminating battery charging downtime.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a semi-electric scissors platform?

A semi-electric scissor platform is a type of aerial work platform that uses electric power for lifting and lowering and manual pushing or pulling for horizontal movement. It combines the convenience of electric lifting with the flexibility of manual transport, making it ideal for indoor maintenance, cleaning, installation, and light industrial tasks. This equipment offers stable elevation, easy operation, and low noise in warehouses, factories, shopping malls, and commercial buildings.

Is a scissor lift a working platform?

Yes, a scissor lift is a type of elevated working platform. It features a stable, extended platform supported by crisscrossing scissor-style supports, designed to safely lift workers, tools, and materials to elevated areas. Scissor lifts are widely used as secure working platforms for construction, maintenance, installation, and various tasks at height.

When can aerial work platforms be used?

An aerial work platform works using a powered lifting mechanism, such as hydraulics, pneumatics, or electric motors, to extend, retract, and position the platform. Operators control movement via onboard controls to adjust height, reach, and stability. The base provides balance, while the platform carries workers and equipment, allowing safe and precise positioning at various elevations.
