Working at height is an essential part of modern warehouse operations. As storage density increases and picking heights continue to rise, safety becomes one of the most important considerations when selecting a high-level order picker.
One question is frequently asked by warehouse managers and safety officers:
“What happens if the machine stops while the operator is working at height?”
At MiMA, we believe safety should never rely on a single backup system. That’s why every MH12 and MH13U High-Level Order Picker comes standard with a Triple Escape System.
The system provides three independent emergency descent methods designed to help operators return safely to the ground in unexpected situations.
The first layer of protection is a hydraulic emergency descent valve, allowing manual mechanical lowering even if electrical power is unavailable.
The second layer is an electrical forced descent function, enabling controlled lowering through the vehicle’s control system when normal operation is interrupted.
The third layer is a mechanical escape rope, serving as a final physical backup independent of hydraulic and electrical systems.
These three systems work independently of one another, creating multiple layers of safety protection for high-level operations.
For warehouse operators, this means greater confidence. For safety managers, it means reduced risk. And for businesses, it reflects a commitment to protecting the people who keep operations moving every day.
At MiMA, safety is not an optional feature. It is a fundamental part of our high-level order picker design philosophy.
Because when operators work at height, every layer of protection matters.
