Articulating Booms - Bi-Energy and Electric
Terex offers Genie DC and Bi-Energy equipment which are emission-free and provide quiet operation for the most sensitive work applications. Like for instance, in industrial settings where the machine has to travel large distances, the Genie bi-energy system combines the advantages and versatility of a diesel fueled generator using a 48 Volt DC equipment.
Important characteristics which this combination offers is out, up and over positioning capabilities for complete versatility. Moreover, the zero tail-swing offered by most units, combined with the tight turning radius offers easy maneuvering through narrow aisles and standard doors.
Drive controls and proportional lift controls also provide precise boom positioning and smooth drive performance. The 48V DC electric drive system offers quiet and emission free operation suitable for sensitive environments. There are jib boom models on the market to function with an extra working range for particular tasks. On non-jib models, there is a self-leveling platform which rotates to either side at an angle of 90 degrees.
Articulating Booms - Diesel Engine
The Terex Genie is great for industrial applications and outdoor construction applications. This model offers engine-powered articulating Z booms which combine up, out and over positioning capabilities and extreme lifting versatility overall. The outreach provided by this type is the best in the market.
Diesel engine equipment on nearly all modes have an articulating boom that offers zero tail-swing with a small turning radius. These machines are ideal in small or narrow places. Additionally, they provide excellent torque, grade and terrain maneuverability and utmost power. The diesel engines are quiet in general also. Nearly all models have full time drive positive drive traction system and active oscillating axle to provide great flexibility on surfaces that are rough and uneven.
The 4 or 2 wheel drive models, provide high ground clearance and the rough terrain features which make these desirable to add to any fleet. The jib boom kinds are available and provide extra range capabilities. On non-jib models, the self-leveling platform also rotates to 90 degrees on these models too.
