Shanghai Sinolift Equipment Co., Ltd. has expanded its access-equipment portfolio with a new Single-Mast Inclinable Aluminum Alloy Aerial Work Platform, developed for maintenance, installation, inspection, and inventory work in locations where floor space, doorway clearance, and transport convenience are critical. Combining a maximum safe working height of 12,000 mm with a compact 750 mm overall width, the platform provides practical vertical access while remaining easy to position in narrow indoor environments.

A New Elevated Work Solution for Space-Restricted Sites

Modern facilities increasingly require maintenance teams to work above shelving, production equipment, utility lines, lighting systems, and interior structures without disrupting the surrounding operation. Conventional access equipment can be difficult to move through narrow aisles, standard doorways, elevators, or low-clearance entrances. SINOLIFT developed this single-mast platform to address those limitations with a lightweight aluminum alloy mast, a compact chassis, and an inclinable structure that supports easier transportation and entry.

The platform reaches a maximum safe working height of 12 meters and a maximum platform height of 11 meters, giving operators the reach required for a broad range of indoor overhead tasks. Its overall machine length is 1,390 mm and its width is only 750 mm, helping crews maneuver the unit through confined work zones and position it close to the task. When stored, the machine height is 2,350 mm; when tilted, the overall height is 2,650 mm, supporting loading and unloading onto suitable transport vehicles and movement through challenging access points.

Unlike large self-propelled machines designed primarily for open floors, the new SINOLIFT platform is intended for controlled, precise placement. Operators can manually move the unit into position, deploy the outriggers, and use the integrated controls to raise the platform smoothly. This makes it especially useful for organizations that need dependable elevated access at multiple locations but do not require a large driveable boom or scissor lift.

The product also reflects SINOLIFT's broader approach to material handling and industrial equipment: practical engineering, stable performance, straightforward operation, and serviceable components. With manufacturing experience across forklifts and warehouse equipment, the company continues to apply its production and quality-control capabilities to specialized solutions that help customers improve workplace efficiency.

Key Features

• 01Up to 12 Meters of Working Height

  A maximum safe working height of 12,000 mm and maximum platform height of 11,000 mm provide reliable access for warehouse maintenance, overhead installation, inspection, and facility-service tasks.

• 02Advanced Inclinable Mast Structure

  The mast can be tilted to simplify loading and unloading onto transport vehicles and to improve access through low-clearance entrances, making relocation between sites faster and more practical.

• 03Compact, Lightweight Configuration

  With an overall width of 750 mm and a machine length of 1,390 mm, the platform is engineered for smooth manual maneuverability in narrow aisles, crowded facilities, and space-restricted work areas.

• 04High-Stability Outrigger System

  Integrated outriggers extend to 2,260 mm in length and 2,240 mm in width, creating a broad support footprint that enhances stability throughout the lifting range when correctly deployed.

• 05Dual-Control Operation

  Controls are available both at platform level and at ground level, supporting efficient coordination between the operator and ground personnel while providing practical control access during setup and operation.

• 06Plug-and-Play Battery Charging

  The 12V DC electrical system includes a 12V/60Ah battery and 12V DC/15A charger, enabling convenient charging before use and helping reduce avoidable operational downtime.

• 07Ergonomic Platform Access

  The 680 mm by 680 mm platform provides a practical work area, while the entry arrangement is designed to make boarding and exiting straightforward for a single authorized operator.

• 08Industrial-Grade Lift Performance

  A 12V DC, 1.6 kW lift motor delivers controlled raising and lowering, with a listed cycle time of approximately 26 to 40 seconds depending on operating conditions.

Designed Around Safe and Efficient Operation

Elevated work requires more than reach alone. Stability, clear control access, predictable movement, and suitable operator capacity are central to safe productivity. The platform is rated for a safe working load of 136 kg and a maximum occupancy of one person for indoor or outdoor use, subject to proper site assessment and operating procedures. The maximum allowable manual force is specified at 200 N, supporting controlled use within the equipment's intended operating envelope.

The outrigger system is a defining part of the design. Once the machine has been moved into the required position, the outriggers create a wider base than the compact transport footprint, balancing maneuverability during relocation with stability during elevation. An extension bracket width of 2,150 mm further supports the deployed configuration. This allows the platform to remain compact while moving through a facility and then establish a stable working footprint at the job location.

Ground clearance is listed at 55 mm in the folded or raised configuration, while the machine uses 127 by 50 mm swivel casters and 203 by 50 mm fixed casters. This wheel arrangement supports controlled manual positioning on appropriate level surfaces. At approximately 500 kg in the DC configuration, the unit combines a substantial operating structure with dimensions that remain practical for internal transportation and storage.

Operators benefit from the dual-control layout. Ground-level controls allow authorized personnel to operate or assist with the equipment from below, while platform controls give the person working at height direct access to lifting functions. This arrangement can improve communication during maintenance and installation tasks, particularly when a ground assistant is helping to position tools, monitor the work zone, or coordinate the operation.

Applications

The Single-Mast Inclinable Aluminum Alloy Aerial Work Platform is intended for organizations that need repeatable access to elevated indoor work areas without the bulk of larger access machines. Typical applications include:
