Shandong Lansheng Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. has achieved breakthroughs in technological innovation, upgrading the intelligent level of the scissor-type lift. This has solved the pain points of high-altitude operations.

The safety and efficiency of high-altitude operations have always been the core pain points of the construction, industrial, and logistics sectors. As the mainstream category of high-altitude operation equipment, the scissor-type lift (Electric Scissor Lift) has achieved comprehensive breakthroughs in intelligence, safety, and efficiency through continuous technological innovation in recent years. It has gradually replaced traditional scaffolding and ladders, becoming the preferred tool for high-altitude operations, promoting the transformation of the high-altitude operation industry towards standardization and intelligence.

The traditional scissor-type lift has many pain points, such as complex operation, insufficient safety, high maintenance costs, and low operation efficiency. Especially in complex operation scenarios, the labor intensity of operators is high, and accidents such as overturning and overload are prone to occur. To solve these pain points, domestic and foreign enterprises have increased research and development investment, combining advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and hydraulic transmission to upgrade the scissor-type lift in all aspects, launching a series of intelligent and high-performance new products, and redefining the new model of high-altitude operations.

The integration of intelligent control technology is the core highlight of the technological innovation of the scissor-type lift. Currently, mainstream new scissor-type lifts have generally adopted intelligent control systems, with a PLC programmable logic controller as the core, integrating touch screen operation panels, wireless remote control modules, and multi-sensor fusion components, achieving precise control and convenient operation of the equipment. Operators can complete the settings of platform lifting, movement, and turning through the touch screen, and the wireless remote control function supports operators to control the equipment operation from the ground remotely, avoiding safety risks in high-altitude operations, especially suitable for high-risk operation scenarios.

What is more noteworthy is that the application of artificial intelligence technology enables the scissor-type lift to have autonomous perception, intelligent warning, and adaptive adjustment capabilities. Components such as inclination sensors, pressure sensors, and displacement sensors on the equipment can collect real-time operating data such as platform inclination angle, load weight, and lifting speed, and through AI algorithms for analysis and processing, when abnormal situations such as overload, overturning, and over-speed are detected, it will immediately trigger an automatic alarm and lock the relevant operations to prevent accidents. For example, in the slope operation scenario, if the lateral inclination angle exceeds 3°, the electronic control system will immediately reduce the output power of the hydraulic pump and limit the rising speed of the platform, while activating the locking function of the balance valve to ensure stable operation of the equipment. According to actual measurement data, the scissor-type lift with the intelligent alarm system has a safety accident rate that is reduced by more than 80% compared to traditional models.

The deep application of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology realizes the full life cycle management of the scissor-type lift, significantly reducing the maintenance costs for users. Enterprises install IoT modules on the equipment, uploading the operation data, fault information, maintenance records, etc. to the cloud platform. Users can view the equipment status and understand the operation and maintenance requirements through computers, mobile phones, etc. The cloud platform can also predict faults based on the equipment's operation data and remind users for maintenance and maintenance in advance, avoiding equipment shutdown due to faults and affecting the operation progress. In addition, IoT technology supports remote debugging and upgrading of the equipment, enterprises can remotely upgrade the control system of the equipment through the cloud platform, optimize the equipment performance, and eliminate the need for on-site operation by staff, significantly improving the maintenance efficiency.

In terms of safety technology, the innovation and upgrade of the scissor-type lift have also achieved remarkable results. In addition to the intelligent alarm system, the new scissor-type lift is also equipped with multiple safety protection devices to comprehensively ensure the personal safety of operators. For instance, the platform guardrail is made of high-strength steel and is welded together. Its height complies with international safety standards such as ANSI MH29.1-2020 and OSHA 29 CFR, preventing operators from falling from heights. The emergency stop button is placed in a prominent position on the platform, allowing operators to press the button immediately in case of an emergency to stop all operations of the equipment. The anti-fall safety device can quickly lock the platform in case of an accidental fall of the equipment, preventing casualties. Meanwhile, some enterprises have also developed collision prevention systems. Through infrared sensors, these systems detect obstacles around the equipment and automatically adjust the operating speed or stop the operation to prevent collisions between the equipment and obstacles, protecting the safety of the equipment and operators.

The upgrading of efficient and energy-saving technologies has further enhanced the market competitiveness of the scissor-type elevators. In terms of efficiency, the new scissor-type elevators adopt high-performance hydraulic transmission systems and motors, with the lifting speed increasing by more than 30% compared to traditional models. The platform lifts smoothly without jolts, significantly reducing the preparation time and operation cycle for high-altitude work. For example, the electric scissor-type elevator developed by Anrui Intelligent Equipment has a lifting speed of 0.1-0.3 meters per second, which is 30% more efficient than traditional hydraulic systems, and the single operation time can be shortened by 1-2 hours. In terms of energy-saving, the electric scissor-type elevators are powered by lithium batteries, with energy consumption reduced by more than 30% compared to traditional fuel-powered models. They have no exhaust emissions and low noise, making them more environmentally friendly and energy-efficient. At the same time, the introduction of energy recovery technology enables the equipment to convert gravitational potential energy into electrical energy during the descent stage and store it in the lithium batteries, further improving energy utilization and extending the equipment's battery life.

The breakthrough in lightweight technology has expanded the application scenarios of scissor-type elevators. Traditional scissor-type elevators have large self-weight, making them inconvenient to handle and transport, and difficult to meet the operational requirements of narrow spaces, indoor floors, etc. In recent years, enterprises have adopted lightweight materials such as high-strength aluminum alloys and carbon fiber composite materials to replace traditional steel, ensuring the equipment's load-bearing capacity and safety while reducing the equipment's self-weight by 20%-25%. For example, the carbon fiber composite material scissor arms developed by Anrui Intelligent Equipment reduce the equipment's self-weight by 25% while maintaining the load-bearing capacity, significantly improving energy efficiency and transportation convenience. Lightweight scissor-type elevators not only make handling and transportation more convenient but also allow them to enter indoor floors through elevators, expanding the equipment's application scope and meeting the needs of different scenarios for high-altitude work.

Industry insiders say that the technological innovation of scissor-type elevators not only solves many problems in traditional high-altitude work but also promotes the transformation and upgrading of the high-altitude work industry. In the future, with the continuous development of technologies such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and new energy, scissor-type elevators will further upgrade towards intelligence, autonomy, and greenness, potentially achieving unmanned operation and autonomous operation, bringing greater changes to the high-altitude work industry. At the same time, enterprises need to strengthen core technology research and development, break through technical bottlenecks, and improve product quality and performance to meet the market demands of different regions and scenarios worldwide, promoting the high-quality development of the scissor-type elevator industry.
