What is a pothole protection system?

A pothole protection system is an important safety feature in a scissor lift designed to protect the ride from falling into a pothole or pit in the ground during operation. This system is very significant in preventing accidents and protecting the safety of the equipment and the operator.

When scissor lifts are used in industry, construction, etc., there are often potholes or uneven ground conditions. If the charge does not have a pothole protection system, the lift platform may slide into the pothole when a pothole exists, resulting in a severe safety accident. For example, when a lift platform slides into a pothole, it may result in tilting of the platform, equipment damage, or even personnel injury. Therefore, a pothole protection system can effectively prevent these dangerous situations.

What are the benefits of a pothole protection system?

A pothole protection system usually uses sensors or laser technology to detect potholes or non-flat surfaces on the ground. Once the system detects a pothole, it will sound an alarm and take appropriate action, such as automatically stopping the lift or alerting the operator to take measures to avoid falling into the pothole. This protects the operator promptly while preventing equipment damage and production interruptions.

The benefits of a pothole protection system are in terms of safety, increased efficiency, and reduced maintenance costs. Accidents can be avoided by preventing lifts from falling into potholes, reducing downtime and the cost of equipment repair. At the same time, protecting the safety of equipment and operators can also improve work efficiency and make the working environment safer and more reliable.
