Genie to showcase nine latest products at Intermat 2018

Focusing on rising market demand for clean, quiet, low, and emissions-free access solutions, as well as machines that offer the ability to lift heavier loads, Genie, a Terex brand, will be showcasing nine of its latest and best-selling products at Intermat 2018, to be held from April 23-28, at Parc des Expositions, Paris-Nord Villepinte on stand number E5 K 025.

Highlights will include the brand’s new generation of environment-friendly hybrid and electric work platforms, new additions to the Genie Xtra Capacity (XC) boom lift family and an upgraded model of the electric Genie GS-4047 scissor lift. The brand will also be showcasing its new Genie Lift Guard line of operator protective systems, and new Genie Lift Power generator solution.

The company’s hybrid and electric models on show will include the ERA award-winning 20 m (65 ft 7 in) Genie Z -60/37 FE hybrid articulating boom lift, the 12 m (39 ft 4 in) Genie Z-33/18 electric articulating boom lift and the 11.89 m (39 ft) Genie GS-4047 electric slab scissor lift.

Genie XC models on show will include the 41.15 m (135 ft) Genie SX-135 XC boom lift, either the 25.91 m (85 ft) Genie S-85 XC boom lift or the 19.84 m (65 ft) Genie S-65 XC boom lift and the 13.86 m (45 ft 6 in) Genie Z-45 XC articulating booms lift.

Genie accessories on show include:

1. The new Genie Lift Power generator solution that features a dedicated hydraulic circuit, a right-sized breaker and no pressure switch to run the unit reliably, and allows the power to lift and drive during operation. The 3kW Genie Lift Power system is available on Genie XC telescopic boom lifts and is convertible from the European 230/50 power system to the 110 /50 UK system at the click of a switch.
2. The Genie Lift Guard Contact Alarm system is an electronic secondary guarding system, that in some circumstances can provide additional operator protection. Designed to immediately activate and alert ground personnel if an operator makes contact with the breakaway cable by means of a sound alarm and a flashing beacon, the Genie Lift Guard Contact Alarm system is now compatible with 2.4 m (8 ft) auxiliary top rails and new control box protection accessories. Installed standard from the factory on most new Genie articulated and telescopic boom lifts, it is also available as an aftermarket kit which can easily be retrofitted in less than 30 minutes with only a few fasteners and electrical harness connectors on units back to 2003.
3. The Genie Fall Arrest Bar. Because there can be times when a worker need to perform their necessary tasks from a structure adjacent to the platform, this new system enables the worker to use their Genie boom lifts as a fall arrest anchor to enjoy the benefit of a greater working area to move around in, while remaining connected to the platform.

Other products on display will include the GTH-2506 compact telehandler and popular AWP personal lift and Genie SLA materials lift.
