Aerial work platform in Europe and the United States and other developed countries have been widely used. But China has not been promoted, there are two specific reasons:
 
First, regulatory reasons. The United States and other developed countries, the law is more than 10 feet (3 048m) operation must have work platform, the platform can be scaffolding, aerial work platform, a fixed platform, but the efficiency is the highest aerial work platform. While there is no corresponding domestic law, we still prefer to use scaffolding, this traditional way is very unsafe. Only 31 years ago in the three quarter, there are 2O10 construction safety accidents in the area, a total of 412 cases, the death of 513 people, of which the accident caused by the — an important reason is the non-standard use of scaffolding and baskets and other tools. If you want to replace the scaffolding with high-altitude machinery, accident rate and casualty figures will drop significantly!
 
Second. Cost reasons. Low labor costs in China, high wages in developed countries. In the United States common type 1530 aerial work platform, the monthly rent is the general construction workers monthly salary of 1/4, while in China, but the construction workers monthly salary of 4 times.
 
So, there is no government support, but also through the market to allow users to spontaneously spontaneous, high-altitude operating platform in the domestic promotion has not been very good. Some well-known high-altitude platform manufacturers, mainly rely on foreign market orders up the development of its overseas market revenue, which accounted for 65% of total sales, in 2012 this figure, in the whole construction machinery industry is very high, like some big series products manufacturers (XCMG, Zoomlion, 31), their sales in overseas markets but also the highest 20%.
 
At present, the potential of high-altitude operating platform in the Chinese market has been high hopes. The top ten of the world's top high-altitude operations, are very early in the domestic business. Foreign well-known enterprises can make great efforts to invest in the domestic market, enough to show that they are optimistic about the market prospects.
