What's new at The ARA Show 2024: Skyjack

Linamar Corporation’s Skyjack division launched its new micro scissor line in the SJ3213 and SJ3219 micro lifts for a new choice in low-level access.

The SJ3213 micro and SJ3219 micro remain simply reliable, combining low cost of ownership with Skyjack’s reputation for product support.

The SJ3213 micro and SJ3219 micro remain simply reliable, combining low cost of ownership with Skyjack’s reputation for product support. Fully proportional drive and lift controls offer superior drive with more efficiency, controllability and improved torque, while variable-speed brushless AC electric front-wheel drive provides exceptional duty cycles.

“Building on the success of the previous SJ3013/14 micro, we now have not one but two new micros. Featuring E-Drive – improving controllability and providing consistent power, torque and traction,” shares Corey Connolly, senior product manager.  “Our focus is always on improving productivity and cost of ownership, and E-Drive allows our newest micro scissors to give you more for less.”

The newest micros have been designed to fit most passenger style elevators and work in environments where space is at a premium while still providing a substantial work area. Key features of the latest micro line include:

• 13- and 19-foot platform heights
• 500-pound platform capacity
• AC electric drive performance
• Fits through a standard door with its rails up
• 20-inch rollout extension to increase work area and provide up and over capability,
• Low GVW that fits into a standard elevator
• Low floor loading

“This is an exciting launch for Skyjack,” says Charlie Patterson, Skyjack president. “Our team understands the importance of maximum uptime and we pride ourselves on providing machine features that combine durability, quality and serviceability. Our new micro line is no exception, combining low cost of ownership with our world-renowned product support for easy accessibility into tight spaces, earning the mighty micros moniker.”
