MEC Gears Up for The ARA Show 2024, Offering New Technology and Improved Safety Features
MEC Aerial Work Platforms is excited to showcase its latest innovations in mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) at The ARA Show from February 19-21, 2024, in New Orleans in Booth 5825. MEC will offer innovation with groundbreaking technology, enhanced productivity solutions, and improved safety features.
At the show, MEC will spotlight its NetZero range, a new line of all-electric lift, steer, and drive slab scissors and vertical masts. This series of cutting-edge lifts is designed to support eco-friendly initiatives and promote cleaner job sites.
Booth visitors can view the first in this range, the NANO10-XD, a lightweight scissor lift. Its maneuverability makes it a prime choice for use on sensitive flooring without causing damage. The NANO10-XD's unique design makes it effective in specialized applications, including data centers and cold storage facilities, as a better solution for ladders last initiatives.
With 10 models ranging from 10- to 45-foot platform heights, MEC provides a large range of all-electric lifts in North America.
The ARA Show’s attendees are invited to stop by the booth and explore the DualReach 85-J Boom. This boom lift represents a leap in MEWP technology, encapsulating the functionality of two distinct machines into a single design. The "two-in-one" machine concept of the DualReach 85-J Boom offers versatility, allowing operators to transition between Telescopic Mode for expansive reach and Articulated Mode for navigation around obstacles with up-and-over capability. This breakthrough enables the 85-J to adapt to various tasks traditionally requiring separate machines, streamlining job site operations, and minimizing equipment requirements.
Also set to premiere at this year’s show are the 40-AJ diesel articulated boom, the Micro2032AC, and the 3232SE slim scissor lift that does not require outriggers.
“We are proud to put innovation at the forefront, as demonstrated by our largest launch of new products on display at The ARA Show this year,” said David White, president, MEC. “We look forward to sharing our passion for engineering excellence and better solutions with our peers and customers.”
MEC is making it easier for rental businesses to build the fleet they want, not only with new multiple models but also with its 0-percent for 12-months Show-Only Special.
