In this study, scissor lift platform produced by Konya Saraylı Madeni Eşya, is designed and analyzed through FEM. The design and applying loads are made according to EN 280 standard. Scissor lift platforms must have a stability due to their structure. It is also important that it is light and designed for a specific load. In this study, the design was made in the SOLIDWORKS program and assembled together. Then, a certain load was applied from the upper part of the platform according to the carrying capacity. Then the loads on the truss profile were calculated analytically. The assembly made in the SOLIDWORKS drawing program was imported into the ANSYS program to perform a numerical analysis. The results obtained were compared with each other
