HYSTER BUILDS ON STRENGTH AT BAUMA 2010

Visitors to BAUMA will be the first to see Hyster’s latest developments as the manufacturer exhibits new forklift trucks and warehouse equipment and showcases AxleTech International’s new XTL™ drive axle.

Hyster, together with German distribution partner Zeppelin, will be demonstrating its wide range of handling equipment suitable for a variety of demanding applications at BAUMA, in the Munich Trade Fair Centre, from 19 April.

Particular focus will be on the new Hyster H25-32XM range of heavy duty forklifts which includes seven new trucks and two dedicated container handlers spanning 25 to 32 tonnes lifting capacity. Three models are ultra compact in size.

“The new H25-32XM range is designed to offer a unique blend of high productivity, reliable proven components, fuel efficiency and outstanding driver comfort for heavy industry” explains Antoon Cooijmans, Big Trucks Product Manager for Hyster Europe. “They are versatile with excellent visibility and low operating costs”. Hyster will display a new H25XM-12 model with IMT tyre handling attachment.

Hyster exclusively offers the AxleTech International XTL™ drive axle in Europe, featured on Hyster’s H16.00-22.00XM-12EC range of Empty Container Handlers and will be showcasing this new XTL™ drive-axle technology for the first time at the show.

Hyster claims the new drive axle design developed by AxleTech International will reduce tyre wear on its Empty Container Handlers and will help to reduce the overall cost of running heavy duty and empty container handling operations.

“No other lift truck manufacturer has access to this technology across Europe” says Antoon, explaining that this is another example of innovation that maintains Hyster’s reputation for dependability and low cost of ownership.

Pallet trucks, an S1.6 stacker and R1.6H reach truck from Hyster’s Warehouse range will also be on display and the company will showcase advances in 3D warehouse simulation.

The leading energy efficient J1.5XNT, J1.6XN and J3.0XN electric counterbalance forklifts will also be shown alongside IC-engined trucks from the Fortens range including the H3.0FT and H8.0FT6.

Hyster works with local distribution partners to deliver dynamic service support for maximum truck availability and utilisation, and experts will be available at the show offering advice for businesses of all sizes.

Visitors will find Hyster and Zeppelin outside Hall B6, close to the “Ost” (East) entrance at F7, Stand 703/3.
