One of the UK’s leading powered access specialists, Facelift (part of the AFI group of companies) is the first to order the Aspen A-62 Bridge Inspection Unit from Versalift.
The Aspen A-62 enables operators to make optimal inspections, review bridge conditions from above, alongside, or below, and is purpose-built for European bridges. It will arrive early Q4 2021, to join Facelift’s established fleet of inspection and gantry underbridge units.
Mounted on a Volvo FM 420 8×4 sleeper cab, the Aspen A-62 features an interchangeable platform giving operators the flexibility to switch between a regular inspection basket and a work platform with two options;
- Inspection Work – Featuring a horizontal under-bridge reach of 18.8m, a vertical reach down to 20.6m and a basket capacity of 272 kg.
- 3-stage Gantry Walkway – Featuring a 680 kg (5 person) capacity, and a movable step-up platform mounted on railing and providing 2.1m reach.
The Aspen A-62 features a heavy duty-generator to power the platform. No outriggers are required, and all counterweights stays within the width of the truck body so this unit can set up in a single lane of the carriageway. Two rotating turntables and multiple articulating and telescoping booms provide greater versatility on accessing structures.
