To achieve an ideal paint finish on railroad cars, the surfaces must be sanded. Due to the size of railroad wagons, a system is required that allows work to be carried out in any position. The ALFATEC aerial work platform can be used for ergonomic sanding work. At the same time, the explosion protection specifications are taken into account and complied with.

The aerial work platform is pneumatically driven with an operating pressure of 6 bar. The aerial work platform can be moved along three axes: moving the platform over 15 m, lifting and lowering from 400 mm to 3,650 mm and telescoping the basket. The basket is moved at a lifting speed of 2 m/min. A travel speed of up to 30 m/min can be achieved when moving the platform.
Minimum dimensions with maximum range:
The special feature of the aerial work platform is its high freedom of movement. The retracted length is 640 mm and the extended length is 2280 mm. The freedom of movement results in less effort and fatigue for workers.

The load capacity is 150 kg. Operation is via joysticks or foot pedals in the car. External emergency lowering is possible via an additional control element on the lifting column. The tested safety systems ensure accident-free working.

Compressed air accumulators offer the user safe lowering even in the event of a compressed air failure.

In addition to their ease of maintenance, the painting access platforms also impress with the Tiger rollers and ALFA-Speed rollers used.
