Articulating Booms - Electric and Bi-Energy
Terex provides Bi-Energy and Genie DC equipment which are emission-free and provide quiet operation for the most sensitive work applications. Like for example, in industrial situations where the equipment should travel large distances, the Genie bi-energy system combines the versatility and advantages of a diesel fueled generator using a 48 Volt DC machine.
Important characteristics which this combination provides is out, up and over positioning capabilities for complete versatility. Furthermore, the zero tail-swing offered by most units, combined with the tight turning radius offers easy maneuvering through standard doors and narrow aisles.
Drive controls and proportional lift controls also provide smooth drive performance and precise boom positioning. The 48V DC electric drive system offers emission free and quiet operation suitable for sensitive settings. 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 90 degrees to either side.
Articulating Booms - Diesel Engine
The Terex Genie is ideal for industrial applications and outdoor construction applications. This particular model offers engine-powered articulating Z booms that combine extreme lifting versatility and up, out and over positioning capabilities. The outreach offered by this type is second to none in the market.
Diesel engine machinery on nearly all modes have an articulating boom which offers zero tail-swing with a small turning radius. These machines are ideal in narrow or small places. Moreover, they offer exceptional torque, terrain and grade maneuverability and supreme power. The diesel engines are quiet in general also. The majority of models have full time drive positive drive traction system and active oscillating axle to provide great flexibility on surfaces that are rough and uneven.
High ground clearance is offered in 2 or 4 wheel drive models, while the rough terrain models are desirable for any company's 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.
