13 October, 2021
L&N Platforms, based in Borough Green, England, has taken delivery of their new Bronto S47XR aerial platform. L&N Platforms offer a full line of services for working at height, ranging from exterior window cleaning to maintenance and equipment rental in the whole of the southeast of England. The new aerial platform was handed over at the 2021 Vertikal Days trade fair where the unit was also on display.
The S47XR has a maximum working height of 47 metres, outreach of 26 metres and is equipped with an element lifting rig, radio remote controls for boom movements and an aluminium dropside for added storage along with multiple other options. The aerial platform has an extendable working cage featuring a cage extension up to 3.7 metres wide, a 600 kg cage load and a fitted element lifting rig to provide maximum flexibility for window cleaning and the media requirements of the customer.
The unit is mounted onto a Volvo FE 320 4×2 chassis and has a weight of around 18 tonnes.
All XR-range units have an easy to operate Bronto 5+ control system that maximises efficiency and provides smooth movements for maximum cage stability.
The S47XR aerial platform is a perfect addition to L&N Platforms’ fleet as it allows them to meet the evolving expectations and demands of their customers.
“Bronto Skylift has supported us going back 10 years and helped us to get where we are now. They even came out and spent some time with us doing early morning window cleaning in London to understand our needs. Nothing has ever been a problem.”
Lee Roebuck, Director, L&N Platforms
“I have used Bronto aerial platforms for over 25 years and they have always been solid machines that gives you the confidence to get the job at hand done. The platforms are as great as they were in my early days; great machines and a great manufacturer that look after and listen to their customers’ needs and requirements.”
