S-45 XC boom lift

Following the introduction the Genie SX-135 XC, SX-125 XC, SX-105 XC, S-85 XC and S-65 XC models, the new Genie S-45 XC boom lift rounds off the telescopic Genie XC boom family.

The modernized version of its predecessor, the S-45 XC boom offers a working height of 15.72m and a horizontal reach of 11m. The S-45 XC combines a consistent dual lift capacity of 300kg unrestricted and 454kg restricted to provide twice more lift capacity than its predecessor, as well as saves time by significantly reducing the number of up and down trips to reload the platform. This new standard, which is consistent across the full Genie XC range, provides the ability to perform a wider range of heavier lift tasks on construction and industrial jobsites with up to three people in the platform, while still leaving room for tools and jobsite materials.

As part of the Genie XC capabilities, this new boom lift features automatic envelope control, the ability for the machine to retract the boom automatically as it reaches its operating envelope. It is also equipped with a load sense cell that continuously checks the weight in the platform and limits the operating envelope to match the load chart, all while offering the ability to do zero-load field calibrations. Compared with its predecessor, this model’s gradeability has been improved to 45% making it suitable for rough terrain jobsites.  This new model will be available in the EMEAR region from April 2019.

GS-1330m electric scissor lift

The GS-1330m electric scissor lift has been developed in response to worldwide demand for ‘green’, compact, low-level access adapted to space and weight-restricted applications. A power-efficient e-drive system offers high runtime for full day productivity and cleaner operation.

With a maximum platform height of 3.9m and a maximum working height of 5.9m, the GS-1330m scissor lift offers 227kg lift capacity to take two people on the platform, a machine weight of 885kg and incorporates the Genie Smart Link control system that simplifies troubleshooting with user-friendly onboard machine adjustments and diagnostics. The Genie Smart Link control system is compatible with the Genie Tech Pro Link handheld diagnostics tool.

Drive enabled at full height and in stowed position, in addition to the ability to climb up to 25%graded slopes, the compact dimensions of the GS-1330m scissor lift improves jobsite accessibility and transportability. Measuring 1.4m long and 0.78m wide and weighing less than the service elevator capacity limitation of 1000kg, the GS-1330m scissor lift is able to access jobsites previously off limits to heavier slab scissors and vertical masts.

Top applications include construction access task in space-restricted locations such as offices, high-rise and retail spaces, as well as facility maintenance duties.

Fuel-electric hybrid boom lift

The new ‘2-In-1’ hybrid machine combines the 4WD all terrain abilities of traditional diesel-powered units, the emissions-free benefits of 100% electric solutions, and the ability to regenerate power to maintain the battery state of charge. With its two modes of operation that provide the ability to work, indoors and out all day or all night long using a single machine, this new model also features ‘intelligent’ technology that saves energy and prolongs battery life.

  
Lift Connect Telematics

The Genie Lift Connect Telematics programme, which will be available in the EMEAR from Q3 2019, is designed to provide actionable information with dashboards and alert notifications; flexibility to gather data from mixed fleets and multiple OEM telematics platforms; and transparency in sharing data.
