Toyota Distributor for Aichi Aerial Work Platforms in U.S. Market


Aichi

IRVINE, CA - Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A, Inc. is now the sole distributor of Aichi scissor lifts, and wheeled and crawler boom lifts in the U.S. Customers benefit from Aichi's products supported by key dealers in Toyota's dealer network and Toyota's more than 40 years of experience in the United States.

Toyota Aichi dealers offer a line-up of aerial work lifts, including scissor lifts, crawler and wheeled boom lifts designed specifically to meet a wide range of indoor and outdoor needs.

Products
Toyota Aichi dealers offer two models of SV-Series scissor lifts ranging from approximately 20- to 26-feet high, two models of SP wheeled boom lift models and four models of ISR-Series crawler boom lifts.

Aichi's new SV scissor lifts feature a brushless AC drive system and unique inverter design for longer duty cycles and faster traveling speeds (1.5 times better than previous models). AC drive motors have no directional contactors or wearable parts thus reducing planned maintenance. Because there are fewer moving parts maintenance is simpler, and access is made easier for inspections. Batteries are housed in an easy slide out compartment for full access.

The new SV-Series also features a new optional proportional steering system for more control when steering. The standard 90-degree steering angle makes it simple to maneuver in tight workspaces. With the fold down handrail option, the new lower stowed height of 5 foot 7 inches allows operators to easily store the scissor lifts. Aichi scissor lifts offer a platform extension that adds an additional 3 feet 3 inches of workspace
