Articulating Booms - Bi-Energy and Electric
Terex offers Bi-Energy and Genie DC machinery which are emission-free and provide quiet operation for the most sensitive work applications. Like for instance, in industrial settings where the machinery must travel significant distances, the Genie bi-energy system combines the advantages and flexibility of a diesel powered generator utilizing a 48 Volt DC machine.
Several of the key characteristics provided by this combination comprise over, out and up positioning capabilities for complete flexibility. As well, the zero tail-swing offered by nearly all models, combined with the tight turning radius offers easy maneuvering through narrow aisles and standard doors.
Drive controls and proportional lift controls also provide smooth drive performance and precise boom positioning. The 48V DC electric drive system offers quiet and emission free operation suitable for sensitive settings. There are jib boom models available to function with an additional working range for particular jobs. On non-jib models, there is a self-leveling platform which rotates 90 degrees to either side.
Articulating Booms - Diesel Engine
The Terex Genie is great for outdoor construction applications and industrial applications. This model provides engine-powered articulating Z booms that combine extreme lifting versatility and over, up and out positioning capabilities. The outreach provided by this type is the best in the market.
The diesel engines with articulating booms provide zero tail-swing on most models and have a tight turning radius. These machines are great for maneuvering in confined locations. In addition, they offer utmost power, excellent torque and terrain and grade maneuverability. The diesel engines are generally quiet as well. Most models have full time drive positive drive traction system and active oscillating axle to offer great flexibility on rough and uneven surfaces.
High ground clearance is provided in 4 or 2 wheel drive models, while the rough terrain models are desirable for any company's fleet. The jib boom kinds are available and offer extra range capabilities. On non-jib types, the self-leveling platform also rotates to 90 degrees on these models as well.
