What Is A Cherry Picker?
A cherry picker is also known as a MEWP – which stands for mobile elevating work platform. Cherry pickers use a hydraulic lifting system and feature a surface or bucket at the end of it – and is attached to a telescopic arm which enables you to control how high it goes as well as the position.
It’s a type of lifting system that enables people to access heights for a variety of reasons. The machine got its name ‘cherry picker’ from its original purpose. The machine was first used to help people pick cherries, hence the name cherry picker. You can still find cherry pickers used in orchards to help workers reach fruits from the tops of the trees and in hard to reach places.
The cherry picker revolutionized the way people pick fruit, making it quicker and easier than ever. It enabled workers to pick the best fruits as opposed to settling for the low-branch fruits, which were often damaged or didn’t receive as much sunlight.
Using a cherry picker to pick fruit also helps to save money – when ladders are used, it’s far easier to drop fruit as your hands are preoccupied with holding on to the ladder.What Can A Cherry Picker Be Used For?
Cherry pickers were a safe solution to picking fruits in orchards – but in 2021, that isn’t their sole purpose. The cherry picker has been modified to complete a variety of tasks, from helping workers in construction to filming from higher angles.
Construction
Cherry pickers are frequently used in construction to safely access higher floors where construction work is being carried out. These are often used in the replacement of cranes or scaffolding, which can be expensive and inefficient – especially if the work isn’t long term. Cherry pickers are both highly mobile and very flexible, which means they are great at providing workers with access to various locations at various different heights.
Cleaning
Another common use of cherry pickers is for cleaning purposes. Buildings need to be cleaned regularly, but when they’re an unusual shape or reach tall heights, it can be difficult. Cherry pickers make it easier to clean the exterior of buildings and offer a much safer solution than using ladders or scaffolding.
Workers have to carry tools on scaffolding or ladders, which can make it difficult to complete the task safely. Cherry pickers enable workers to place tools and buckets by their feet, so both hands are free to clean effectively.
Fire Service
Cherry pickers enable firefighters and rescue workers to save lives – it makes it easier to reach higher floors and provides a speedy and safe platform for them to step onto to get to safety. Previously, firefighters would’ve used ladders – which isn’t the best option when carrying an injured person.
