Secure platform for bus roof maintenance
Customer request: How to perform safe maintenance on bus roof? Accessing the roof remains a high-risk operation, complicated by the variety of vehicle heights and space constraints. The need was for a reliable bus rooftop access solution that allows operators to efficiently carry out cleaning, inspection, or equipment replacement, while ensuring a high level of safety.
FORTAL Solution: Design and manufacture of a mobile platform dedicated to safe access to bus rooftops, specifically tailored for regular maintenance tasks (cleaning, inspection, component replacement on the roof). Height-adjustable, it easily adapts to different bus models, including electric and hydrogen buses. The platform features a large anti-slip work surface, accessible via an ergonomically designed staircase with adjustable inclination, facilitating frequent climbs and descents. The peripheral safety system, equipped with a deployable guard ring, creates a fully secured work zone, eliminating fall risks and ensuring operator safety during elevated interventions. Its construction combines extruded aluminum and galvanized steel for long-lasting durability. Mobile, it moves easily on swivel wheels with a locking system, and stabilizes perfectly in working position via dedicated supports. Result: A complete solution for safe access to bus rooftops, optimizing maintenance operations and improving working conditions for teams.
