This CAD drawing shows Ascendant Access's new A17/12 platform to be launched soon. Andy Northwood, a director at Ascendant, tells AI that “The key feature of this unit is the one-sided jacking arrangement which provides 12 m of outreach with 230 kg in the cage.” The platform will be mounted on a 3.5 t Ford Transit and the first 10 units have been ordered by Facelift Access Hire in the UK, who, says Mr Northwood, “have made a significant input into its design from a rental perspective.”
