Roof working platforms
Custom-built roof work platforms for buses, trams, and trains
Rooftop working platforms are as versatile as the transit systems in which they are used—whether buses, trams, or trains. Each platform is custom-designed to meet the specific task at hand and adapt to local conditions.
Our solutions range from sliding-drawer designs with variable extension and folding systems to side-swiveling platforms and mobile work platforms that can be moved along the tracks. Electronic control plays a central role here, as complex interdependencies between drives, contact strips, overhead lines, and access technology must be taken into account. Employee safety is our top priority to minimize hazards as much as possible.
Robust mechanical engineering solutions ensure reliable operation around the clock. This is because the maintenance and inspection of modern trucks, buses, trams, railcars, and locomotives require ever-shorter turnaround times in workshops and rail depots.
We don't just offer standardized solutions—we also develop customized concepts tailored to your specific needs. Take advantage of our many years of experience and let us advise you!
Front fall protection
Safety has priority! The employees' work area extends to various areas on and around the vehicle. Especially when working on vehicles during repair or maintenance, it is important that employees are protected from falling. Blumenbecker frontal fall protection systems are used to provide the best possible protection for the working area.
A wide variety of designs are available. The operating principles range from side-hinged from one or both sides to gates that close from top to bottom, with the aim of individually securing the work area by closing the gap. Blumenbecker's front fall protection systems are made of steel or aluminium, depending on the customer's specifications and area of application.
When planning, we take into account the functionality of the roof working platform as well as the specified safetyregulations of our customers and find customised solutions.
Gap bridging
Work platforms have a fixed walkway. The vehicles being worked on are usually different in terms of model and dimensions. There is a gap between the work platform and the vehicle, which must be bridged for the safety of the employee.
Gap bridging systems from Blumenbecker are available in various designs:
With the flap element operating principle, the gap is bridged by a flap.
In the case of the drawer principle, the shoulder plates attached to the working platform are electrically extended to such an extent that they can be individually adjusted to the various widths of the vehicle.
