FORKLIFTS


ENHANCING SAFETY AND EFFICIENCY At Bobcat’s recent Demo Days event for the EMEA region, visitors were able to see the very latest developments in the fourth segment of safety and efficiency. They included new Operator Presence technology that leverages a 3D time-of-flight (ToF) camera to monitor users' movements and the cab environment, enhancing safety by preventing unintended machine actions. The Pedestrian Detection Camera uses AI-enabled processing capabilities to differentiate between humans and surroundings, reducing unnecessary operator alerts. Bobcat’s transparent OLED (T-OLED) screen


technology, developed with LG and BSI Research, enables operators to access various functionalities without taking their eyes off the worksite. This technology facilitates advanced applications like real-time virtual reality (VR) simulations for utility line mapping.


ELECTRIC FORKLIFTS Bobcat has recently showcased innovations for logistics and material handling. These include prototypes of the B18NT electric forklift truck with three wheels and a lithium battery and the B30X-7 Plus hydrogen forklift truck. An important expansion now on the market is the new NXE series of electric forklift trucks with 4-wheel drive. The series consists of forklift trucks with a capacity of six to 10 tonnex, which are suitable for heavy applications in container transport, machine construction and industry. These zero- emission machines can work an entire day on a battery charge and are of course very suitable for work in factories and warehouses. The machines offer excellent visibility and (in Bobcat style) a lot of comfort and features as standard that make operation easier.
