The "Steel Pangolin" of the South American Rainforest-Crawler Boom Lift
Deep in the Amazon rainforest, maintenance work on a high-voltage power line faced severe challenges. The dense rainforest lacked roads, the terrain was undulating, and swampy. Traditional maintenance equipment was ineffective.
"The environment here can 'eat up' any delicate machinery," said Carlos, an engineer at the local power company.
They decided to give CATHAYLIFT a chance, ordering an all-terrain articulated boom lift specifically designed for harsh terrain. When the equipment arrived, its rugged appearance and four-wheel drive system instilled confidence.
In the rainforest, it demonstrated formidable off-road capabilities: like a "steel pangolin," it easily rolled over bushes, climbed steep slopes, and even briefly forded shallow waters. Its powerful lifting capacity and excellent obstacle-crossing ability allowed workers to operate directly from the jungle floor to the cable level, eliminating the need for expensive temporary roads.
One day, a sudden downpour turned the construction site into a muddy mess, but CATHAYLIFT's equipment continued working, ensuring that maintenance tasks in critical sections were completed on time. Carlos, patting the mud-covered equipment casing, reported to headquarters: "We've found it! This is the solution tailor-made for Amazon. It's strong enough and smart enough."
From then on, CATHAYLIFT's articulated boom lifts became reliable partners in ensuring the energy lifeline of this green ocean.
