Rent Tracked Aerial Work Platforms – Maximum Reach on Difficult Terrain

Tracked aerial work platforms – also known as crawler lifts or spider lifts – are the right choice when wheels won't do: on rough terrain, sensitive floors, and in confined indoor spaces. Luibl rents tracked aerial work platforms from leading manufacturers such as CTE, Teupen, Hinowa, and Leguan, with working heights from 13 to 40 metres – delivered across Europe via our own low-loader fleet and a network of more than 200 locations.

The tracked undercarriage spreads the machine's own weight over a large contact area – minimal ground pressure, maximum protection for sensitive surfaces. The non-marking rubber tracks leave barely a trace on parquet, marble, or tiles with underfloor heating. On rough terrain, tracked platforms handle gradients of up to 30% and drive safely over mud, sand, and gravel. Key technical data for our tracked platforms:

• Working height: 13 m to 40 m
• Load capacity: 200 kg to 400 kg
• Outreach: up to 17 m
• Retracted width: from 78 cm – fits through standard doors
• Max. gradient: 30%
• Drive: Bi-Energy (diesel/petrol + electric 230V/battery)
• Turret slew range: 360° continuous

• Articulated tracked platforms (CTE TRACCESS series): Knuckle boom for overhead work above obstacles – galleries, pipework, ceiling beams.
• Telescopic tracked platforms (Teupen LEO series, up to 40 m): Maximum outreach up to 17 m, fast positioning for façade work and tree canopy maintenance.

• Tree care & forestry work: Narrow models (from 78 cm) reach backyards and park grounds.
• Churches, museums & listed buildings: Emission-free operation plus non-marking tracks protect historic fabric.
• Industrial maintenance & facility management: Precise manoeuvring in tight factory halls.
• Construction sites with difficult terrain: Mud, sand, gravel, and gradients of up to 30%.
• Shopping centres & gymnasiums: Emission-free operation and low point loading.
• Signage & illuminated advertising: 360° slew range saves repositioning time.

Under DGUV Rule 308-009, aerial work platforms may only be operated by briefed personnel. At the start of the rental, your staff will receive a proper briefing on operating the tracked platform. For further qualification, we recommend a certified aerial work platform course to IPAF standard.

Luibl delivers your tracked aerial work platform directly to the job site on our own low-loader – in Passau, Lower Bavaria, Austria, and beyond, throughout Europe. Our own transport logistics ensure punctual delivery, professional handover, and reliable collection. For work on level ground, we also offer articulated boom lifts and telescopic boom lifts for rent.

Which ground surfaces are tracked aerial work platforms best suited for?

Tracked aerial work platforms are the first choice for pressure-sensitive and uneven surfaces. They are ideal for lawns, parquet, marble, tiles with underfloor heating, as well as outdoor terrain with mud, sand, or gradients of up to 30%.

Do tracked aerial work platforms fit through standard doors?

Yes. Many models have a retracted width of just 78 to 90 cm and pass easily through standard interior doors, garden gates, and narrow industrial aisles.

What drive system do the tracked platforms have?

All rental units feature Bi-Energy drive: diesel/petrol for outdoor use, electric motor (230V or battery) for emission-free indoor operation.

How does the outrigger support work on uneven terrain?

The four outriggers are independently controllable and can be positioned asymmetrically. This safely compensates for terrain gradients of up to 30% and steps.

How far does Luibl deliver?

Luibl delivers throughout Germany and across Europe on our own low-loader. Our main base is Passau, with regular deliveries throughout Germany, Austria, and other European countries.
