The prototype variable sized platform for Airo push around lifts shown in prototype form last October is now in production, with the first order for 10 units shipped to the UK this month.

The prototype was originally designed and fabricated by us, Aerial and Handling Services, but has now been adopted and made by Airo in Italy.

The variable platform design has a 50mm narrower handrail width at 520mm while the basket length can be reduced from just over a metre to 520mm resulting in a 520mm square ‘micro cage’. This allows the platform to work in more confined spaces such as through suspended ceiling openings. The production version of the platform has a saloon type entrance gate following feedback from the field trials. It is available across the PAV range with working heights from three to 5.3 metres. The variable platform cage can be retrofitted to existing Airo platforms and may be made available on larger scissor lifts in the future.

The new production versions will be on display at Vertikal Days in May. In the meantime you can check out the spec here:
