What is a telescopic boom lift?

Telescopic boom lifts come in really handy when the space is cramped up, tight and one has to either access a work site at height or transport light materials also at height. Because of their angled directions, they are quite a popular choice when accessing/working at height. JLG Telescopic booms are a popular choice in the category, known for their reliability and sturdiness. Telescopic boom lifts fall under the category of aerial work platforms that again are popular when lifting workers, any construction material or tools at height.

What is the difference between Articulated Boom Lift and Telescopic Boom Lift?

To begin, both articulating boom lift and telescopic boom lift belong to the same category i.e. aerial work platforms used for lifting people and/or lightweight materials at height at tighter spaces. The key difference between the two is that an articulated boom lift can ‘angle’ or ‘bend’ at different heights as and when required by the operator. They are ideal for very narrow construction sites and rough terrains. On the other hand, articulated boom lifts have a ‘straight’ boom that can not bend at different angles but has only a straight boom and thus have faster reach at heights. Many consider articulating boom lifts to be more flexible but again each construction project calls for a different scenario.
