Sinoboom’s New Telehander Product Line Designed for Rental
Sinoboom launched its first range of telehandler products in a ceremony at its headquarters in Changsha, China, which was simultaneously streamed online. The telehandler product line is engineered with the requirements of the rental industry in mind, and consists of two stationary models (TH40-14 and TH45-18) and one rotating model (TH50-18R), all of which are multi-functional with optional attachments of fork-type platform, bucket, clamp, vacuum suction device and gripper.
During the launch ceremony, Sinoboom chairman Steven Liu introduced the background R&D work behind the launch of products for the telehandler sector: “Sinoboom has never stopped its pace of innovative research and development since its establishment in 2008, and always strives to provide customers with diversified solutions for work at height. We seek to provide differentiated products within the market and focus on creating true value for customers.”
The entire series has been designed for enhanced safety, flexibility, operator comfort and user-friendliness. Key characteristics include:
· A frame-leveling function as standard, for adaptability on uneven sites and to keep the boom working horizontally, enhancing load security.
· Three steering modes of front-wheel, four-wheel and crab.
· Compact body size, with a fixed minimum width of only 2.3m which allows transportation by container.
· FOPS and ROPS certification for the cab, helping ensure the safety of operators.
· Real-time dynamic monitoring to prevent overturning and overloading.
· Auto-shutdown of the engine in the case of engine failure, plus emergency power to ensure safe recovery.
· One of the largest cabs in the market, with ample room for movement of the operator and 360° glass for all-round visibility.
· 7-inch smart screen which enables multi-function integration, and real-time query and machine status monitoring.
· Full-proportional joystick control for smooth and coordinated movement, starting and stopping.
· Centralized button layout for easy operation.
· Automatic engine speed-up function, providing stable and ample power without lagging.
Automatic attachment identification
Each machine offers multiple functions, and each of the models in the range features an automatic attachment identification function, with one-click switch and quick matching of corresponding control programs. There is a larger loading capacity within the same accessible height segment compared to standard telehandlers, and these models can travel with their load using 4-wheel drive and at a maximum speed of 35km/h, enabling rapid transfer of materials and driving up efficiency.
Sinoboom has created this series of telehandlers to meet the mainstream demands of international markets including North America and Europe. This range not only offers performance, but also reflects Sinoboom’s in-depth insight and adaptation to the market in detail. Whether it is the aesthetic design, the functional configuration, or the operating experience, all are engineered to meet the actual needs of customers. For instance, an optional extra is an engine pre-heating device for customers requiring enhanced cold-weather performance, ensuring stable starting and operation in low temperatures, providing a strong guarantee for customers.
Sinoboom will release the range to the overseas market at the end of 2024, after a stringent and systematic testing and debugging process, and is confident it will demonstrate strong competitiveness in the international market.
