Product Portfolio
  • Electric Models

        • ELX Electric Sideloaders, 120V, 3 to 5 tonnes

      • ELX Electric Sideloaders - Designed & built from the ground up

              • Compact, lightweight, intelligent.

              • The compact AC powered electric ELX is predicted to change the European market for sideloaders. The goal was to produce a highly efficient and durable electric machine capable of efficiently working in small spaces.

                Creating a smaller, lightweight chassis, involved designing a series of angled sections to provide stiffness and stability, without excess weight 2.5 tonnes lower than a conventional engine machine. A new steering axle was developed with extra weight added, providing a lower centre of gravity.
                • Efficient, intelligent and tough
                • Under four metres in length
                • Amazing work-cycles
              • Key Features 

              • ZERO EMISSIONS
                In developing the ELX range the goal was to produce a highly efficient and durable machine capable of working in demanding applications. Electrics offer zero emissions, are cheaper to run and maintain, as well as offering a better operator environment. Noise and cost savings will also benefit long-established companies which have seen towns grow up around them, and are under pressure to cut emissions and noise pollution by neighbours and legislators.

                INNOVATIVE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
                The Baumann ELX Series utilises a bespoke steering axle & flow matching hydraulic system. Through closed-loop control, the hydraulic pressure is adjusted depending on the load, saving energy and improving efficiency.

                 30% INCREASED BATTERY PERFORMANCE
                The innovations, 120v power supply & 2.5 tonnes weight reduction have increased battery performance by up to 30%.

                AC WIRING SCHEMATIC
                The huge saving in weight allows a larger, ‘intelligent’ battery system, created specifically for Baumann in a bespoke arrangement. This in turn is supplemented by a new AC wiring schematic, featuring individual cables directly connected to each component to provide maximum efficiency.

                IMPROVED TURNING CIRCLE
                The reduced length & improved turning circle have been achieved without sacrificing the mast or well width, clearance & low bed height.
            • EGX Electric Sideloaders - The future just happened: 120v electric, 5 to 8 tonnes capacity

                  • Durability As Standard

                  • Our EGX Series chassis are built to exacting standards while our masts have a unique profile designed for the exacting demands of working sideways.

                    Toughness is just one of the secrets to our success, helping our equipment to be known worldwide for its durability and reliability. Baumann is also renowned as an innovator, especially in the important areas of safety and productivity.
                    • A highly efficient and durable machine
                    • Longest running hours in its class

                    OUTREACH SYSTEM
                    The Baumann EGX Series utilises the direct drive Archimedes screw to extend the fork carriage, whilst preventing transverse movements and eliminating unnecessary stresses. The worm gear system and rollers can work only in combination, which means ideal results each time, and the maximum working speeds – results never before reached. The system is low in maintenance and simple in design, with a high level of engineering and durability to ensure greater safety, smoother control and perfectly synchronised outreach for highly accurate and efficient load control.

                    DUAL DRIVE MOTORS
                    The EGX has two drive motors and larger capacity / longer run time 120v battery, offering the longest running hours in its class.

                    AUTO STABILIZING SYSTEM
                    Once the platform is fixed in the horizontal position, the load remains stable even on uneven ground.
                  • The Range: Mid-Sized, Heavy Duty

                  • Our most popular sideloaders are some of out most advanced, performing superbly over long shifts and greater distances. The 120v electric EGX offers high speeds speeds and long battery life, with capacities from 5 to 8 tonnes.

                            • Small But Perfectly Formed

                            • Changes in materials and advances in toughened glass allowed us to reconfigure the glass panel on the new cabin. An extremely thorough testing process requires major structural improvements, such as new cabins to be tested to destruction, with the results held in storage for at least a decade. The result is a more sturdy design, together with more sensitive control via a new hydraulic system.

                              The new design was tested by applying large amounts of pressure to the roof. The aim was to provide an improved view and outstanding protection without sacrificing the build quality and durability for which the brand is renowned.

                              Low deck heights and short chassis lengths do not compromise the HX’s ability to carry long loads in tight areas.

                              REAR STEP & HANDLE
                              Handles and footsteps allow the operator to access loads and cabin with the minimum of effort.

                              LOW EMISSIONS
                              The Hatz 54kw engine meets tough emissions standards via an oxidising catalytic converter, and without the need for a regenerative process.

                              SUPERB VISIBILITY
                              Following two years of trials and six months of rigorous testing, the cabin has been redesigned to strengthen the framework, simplify access and allowing the central side struts to be removed
