Series 35 Scissor Lift: Popular, Versatile, & Powerful

Series 35 scissor lifts are some of the most reliable lifts on the market today. They are also extremely powerful, with close to 1,000 options designed to meet a wide variety of industrial needs. 

The reason scissor lifts are so popular is simple—there is a wide variety of applications for these small, simple lifts that makes them the perfect fit for many different jobs. That same simplicity makes them a cost-effective option that can often be paired with other types of lifts to solve complex operational issues without going over budget.

In this article, you will learn about the Series 35 scissor lift, its capabilities, and why so many of our customers continue to choose this simple workhorse over more complex options.

Series 35 Scissor Lift Table Benefits

Series 35 Scissor Lift Tables have many benefits that make them a superior option—here are just a few.

Simple and Compact

The Series 35 models have a travel range from 24 inches to 60 inches and can lift up to 15,000 pounds despite having a base between 60 and 120 inches long and 36 to 90 inches wide.

This makes them highly compact compared to other options, which means you will be able to install them and operate them more efficiently. 

They are still fairly high-capacity lifts, lifting anywhere from 2,500 to 15,000 pounds, giving you the power you need in spaces where other types of lifts would not be practical. 

These models have standard prewired controls and an onboard internal power unit, making both installation and operation extremely simple, with little training required for your employees to make use of the lift.

Affordable

These industrial scissor lifts are the most affordable option on the market today, especially when compared to fancier options that integrate newer features, like augmented reality and autonomous navigation.

While we strive to always be at the forefront of innovations in the lift industry, the reality is that these innovations, while nice to have, are not always the right fit for each customer or application. There are plenty of situations where simple is best, and additional features, like remote monitoring or voice/gesture controls, add little value.

Though we believe that many types of lifts will take on these innovations over time, and while we believe these innovations are great for the industry and enhance worker safety and productivity, we still think there will always be room for simple manual options.

Durable

Because many of our clients need these hydraulic scissor lifts to be stationary while working constantly for many hours at a time, we’ve built them to be extremely durable, another big scissor lift table benefit compared to more complex options.

The simple design lends itself to durability—the fewer moving parts, the fewer ways for the Series 35 Scissor Lift to break down. The entire scissor lift is a single piece with steel-reinforced legs, making the platform exceptionally solid.

All points of potential wear and failure have also been strengthened, with chrome-plated, 100,000 PSI strength pins in every joint, added stiffeners, and a ¼-inch thick steel-reinforced platform, which cuts down greatly on deck deflection and enhances the life of the lift.

Safe and Simple to Maintain

Series 35 Scissor Lifts comply with all recognized safety standards, including the following:

  • ANSI MH29.1 – Safety Requirements for Industrial Scissor Lifts
  • NFPA 70 – National Electric Code
  • ASTM – A36 – Structural Steel Standard
  • ANSI Z535 – Safety Labeling Requirements
  • AWS D.1 – Welding Standards
  • Applicable portions of OSHA 29CFR1910 – General Workplace Safety

Take a look at this case study to see how a Series 35 hydraulic lift was used to create a highly ergonomic solution.

Additionally, we offer the best warranty in the industry—2 years on all parts. Add that to the double-wire-braided Parker hydraulic hoses, which are extremely effective at resisting wear, and a semi-transparent polyurethane oil reservoir that lets your technicians easily check fluid levels without allowing for rust contamination, and you’ve got one of the most easily maintained high-capacity lifts around.

Customizable

Autoquip offers multiple options to maneuver your lift with the flexibility you need. We deliver manual and powered options to push, pull, tug, move, or transport this scissor lift. Our experts will help you pick between numerous options, including:

  • Wheels
  • Casters
  • Tires
  • Air casters
  • Powered drive wheels
  • Air-powered casters
  • Train drive systems

We are able to design a custom platform to meet your specifications. Whether you need a unique size or shape to best conform to your load and floor layout, we’ve got you covered. We can also add manual or powered turntables that can be mounted to the Series 35 platform for applications that require 360° continuous rotation and easy access to parts for assembly.

Take a look at our recent customization for one of the largest producers of steel ingots in the US.

Add a Custom Tilting System

Autoquip specializes in designing custom tilting solutions for applications that need unique positioning of loads. We are able to add tilters to a Series 35 Scissor Lift platform as needed for your positioning application.

Customizing tilters for many special applications that require a broad range of positioning is a common request from our customers. Repositioning oversized material loads or mounting special fixtures that hold the product during the tilting process is also a common customization request.

Add a Conveyor

We know that many businesses require unique conveyance solutions to keep things running smoothly. That’s why we constructed the versatile Series 35 with the ability to be fitted with a conveyor designed specifically for your needs. 

Whether your business needs assistance feeding products onto the conveyor, loading or unloading trucks, transporting pallets, or tilting packages to move off the conveyor, our custom conveyor on the Series 35 will get the job done. Our conveyor design solutions can handle any product, no matter how bulky or heavy.
