Types of MEC Products?
Micro, slim, and compact scissor lifts, commonly referred to as slab scissor lifts, are integral to the MEC line due to their innovative patent-pending Leak Containment System (LCS). This system emerged from MEC's findings that the majority of hydraulic oil leaks were due to the undue stress on hoses by the hydraulic motors in the front wheels, primarily during steering. To tackle this issue, MEC revolutionized its slab scissor series, transitioning to a direct electric drive that mitigates oil leaks by eliminating the conventional drive wheels. This cutting-edge LCS has considerably enhanced the operational efficiency of various models, including the Micro Scissor models like 1330SE, MICRO 19, and MICRO 26; Slim Scissor versions 1930SE and 2632SE; and Compact Scissor variants 3346SE, 4046SE, and 4555SE.
In contrast, rough terrain scissor lifts are engineered specifically for outdoor tasks, capable of handling the challenges of rugged environments and offering moderate reach. They feature the Speed Level Sigma Lifts, which boast a non-skid metal deck construction that ensures platform stability. This category includes midsize lifts such as the 3369ERT and 4069ERT, and large models like the 2684ES and 3084RT. Furthermore, Mec boom lifts, particularly the telescopic variants, offer superior height accessibility, making them a favorite in sectors requiring work on multi-story buildings, towers, or electrical and communication lines. The MEC Titan Boom series includes models like the 45-AJ Diesel Boom and TITAN BOOM 60-S, stands out with its unique frame leveling feature afforded by oscillating front and rear axles, catering to a diverse range of high-reach demands.
Why Buy MEC?
Over the years MEC Aerial Work Platforms has won multiple awards in industry and safety. They pioneered the now widely accepted Proactive Platform Safety System (PPSS) occasionally known as the Pothole protection system. The deployment of the pothole protection system is designed to alert lift operators by warning them of overhead hazards. Continuing with unmatched innovation, MEC announced the Leak Containment System (LCS). MEC introduced some of the industry's first electric medium and large rough terrain scissor lifts. Their line of equipment includes a variety of MEC aerial work platforms, scissor lifts, telehandlers, and telescopic and articulating boom lifts. Each of these AWPs has unique capabilities for different types of jobs.
