BAUMA 2019 - we’ll be there!
BAUMA TRADE FAIR 8-14 APRIL 2019, Munich
This year, after a three-year break, we will again be attending the world’s leading construction machinery and equipment trade fair in Germany, which is a unique platform for presenting a wide range of news and trends in the field of machinery, technology, innovation, vehicles and mining equipment.
This fair will feature lots of news from our main partner - Genie.
Will we meet you there, too?
We’ll be looking forward to seeing you!
New products from Genie that will be on display
- The new Genie S-45 XC aerial platform
The Genie S-45 XC platform is a modernised version of its predecessor and offers a working height of 15.72 m and a horizontal reach of 11 m. As with all Genie XC models, the new Genie S-45 XC offers two load capacities, 300 kg with no limited turntable rotation and 454 kg with limited turntable rotation, and thus has more than double the load capacity of the previous platform. This increased load capacity saves a considerable amount of time, reducing the number of times the platform has to be lowered and retracted to load new material.
- The new Genie S-65 TraX with increased load capacity
At the same time as offering twice more lift capacity than its predecessor, this new generation track-mounted Genie aerial platform retains its pioneering four-point track and patented active oscillating axle system to take on virtually any kind of tough or sensitive terrain.
- The new Genie GS-1330m electric scissor lift
Thanks to its power-efficient e-drive system that offers industry-leading runtime for full day productivity and cleaner operation, the new Genie GS™-1330m electric scissor lift offers rental and contractor customers the means of differentiating their business by adding more eco-responsible machines to their machine fleets. With environmental challenges in mind, this new “micro-sized” model responds to worldwide demand for “green”, compact, platforms designed for low-level access in places where space and weight are restricted. The new Genie GS-1330m electric scissor lift offers a maximum platform height of 3.9 m, a maximum working height of 5.9 m and a load capacity of 227 kg.
- The new Genie hybrid lift
Responding to today’s increasing environmental challenges and stricter job site regulations, BAUMA 2019 will also mark the première of a new Genie fuel-electric (FE) hybrid boom lift that, like its higher-lifting sister model features a “true” hybrid system. Offering all the unique benefits of the pioneering, Genie Z®-60/37 FE model, this new “2-In-1” Genie hybrid machine will combine the powerful 4WD all terrain abilities of traditional diesel-powered units, the emissions-free benefits of 100% electric solutions plus the ability to regenerate power to maintain the battery state of charge. Two operating modes enable the lift to be used all day or all night indoors or outdoors, with just this one machine. This machine relies on “intelligent” technology that saves energy and significantly prolongs battery life, thus reducing operating and maintenance costs and offering excellent returns on invested capital (rROIC) when it is rented.
More details will be revealed closer to the show
- New NEW Genie Lift Connect™ telematics solutions
Developed in direct response to the needs of customers’ running lift rental outlets, the new Genie® Lift Connect™ programme is a telematics solution focused on actionable information, flexibility and transparency. No matter what the size of an aerial equipment fleet — from 10 to 10000 machines — equipment management is something that rental companies do today and every day. From knowing how equipment is performing or how often a piece is being utilized, to where each unit is or when it is ready for maintenance, machine data can provide a lot of insight to rental businesses.
- The new Genie Lift Guard™ contact alarm for scissor lifts
Following a pre-production preview in the UK in May 2018, the Genie Lift Guard™ Contact Alarm system for slab scissor lifts and vertical masts will be officially launched at Bauma 2019. The system is designed to provide a secondary operator protection equivalent to that available on boom lifts in a package that meets the unique needs of scissor and vertical mast lift applications; the Genie Lift Guard Contact Alarm activates when an obstruction makes contact with any one of the whiskers mounted on the platform, alerting operators, occupants and ground personnel to a potential hazard.
- Newly PPE-Certified - Genie Fall Arrest Bar
As part of its commitment to safety, Genie recently brought to market the bolt-on Genie Fall Arrest Bar accessory to provide operators more space to move around in safely when working on adjacent structures outside the platform. Today, since having successfully passed the dynamic fall arrest anchorage test in line with ISO 16368 as withstanding the force of a free-falling 136 kg test mass, the Genie Fall Arrest Bar is the first and only formally certified personal protective equipment (PPE) of its kind to meet current EU PPE regulations.
- Genie Tech Pro Link Hand-held Diagnostics Device
With convenience, comfort and accessibility in mind, the Genie Tech Pro Link tool is a hand-held diagnostics device that allows users access to real time data, calibration or fault code information and gauges and to make settings adjustments such as speed and so much more — all from the palm of the hand. Described by operators as being easier to use than other similar tools, this new device combines smart, simple features with an integrated flashlight and a magnetic attachment for easy hands-free operation.
