While some of the major scissor and boom manufacturers have pulled out of Bauma, the Chinese producers will be there in force, along with the rest of the access industry.

The wait for Bauma may have been longer than usual, due to the pandemic, but that has only served to increase the anticipation for the world’s largest construction equipment trade show.

Bauma 2022 exhibitor list for access equipment

While access manufacturers will be out in force, there are some absences that will not go unnoticed, namely the largest scissor and boom lift manufacturers based in Europe and North America. Those being: JLG, Genie, Skyjack, Haulotte Snorkel and Niftylift.

Conversely, the major Chinese access equipment manufacturers will be at the show, including Dingli, Sinoboom, XCMG, LGMG and Zoomlion. 

This dynamic will make for an interesting exhibition for the access sector and of course AI will be there to report the details.

From the wider access sector, vehicle mount and spider lift manufacturers, along with a range of other low level access producers and utility-related companies will be there too.

Therefore, there will be plenty for anyone interested in the access industry to see at the show.

Most companies are holding back on their product launch information until nearer the time, nevertheless, here follows some early examples of what can be expected.

What equipment will be on show at Bauma?

There will be slab scissor lifts from 8m to 13m platform heights, including models with lithium batteries and AC power.

Rough terrain scissor lifts for uneven ground

Also at the show will be rough terrain scissor lifts with one-click levelling and up to 680kg lifting capacity, along with a range of new articulating boom lifts, including a Plus series model with 450kg lifting capacity and a new electric telescopic boom lift from the Plus series, with active oscillation.

There will also be a vertical mast lift designed for user-friendliness and manoeuvrability in narrow spaces.

A robust components and corrosion-resistant electrophoretic primer treatment come as standard across the Sinoboom range, alongside features such as a 7-inch display screen on boom lifts for maintenance management.

Spider lifts at Bauma 2022

Tracked platform manufacturer Hinowa will mark its 35th anniversary this year with a large single stand.

Instead of the minidumper stand in hall C4 and the outside stand it had previously booked, the spider lift specialist will now display all its products on a single 600 square metre outdoor booth, FS 1007/1.

Among the aerial platforms, tracked pallet jacks, minidumpers and undercarriages will be the direct electric drive TeleCrawler TC22S spider lift, designed with an unrestricted working range in difficult terrain or in small spaces.

The model is available with three power units: fully electric; bi-energy; or Kubota diesel engine coupled with a 220V electric motor.

Compact aerial platforms

Among the other items on the stand will be the new compact Lightlift 18.80 Performance IIIS spider with an 18.5m working height and outreach of 7.8m, with a load capacity of 230kg.

Another model on the stand will be the Lightlift 40.18 with a working height of 40.2m and compact with stabilisation area of 537 x 504 cm.

Mast climber and hoist specialist Geda will be at the show in its 90th anniversary year with a pioneering mast solution set to be launched at the show. Details will not be available until the first day of the exhibition.

Another new appearance will be a pair of new landing level safety gates.

One has a “worry-free”, easy to use landing level gate with fast installation, while the other is for a new market segment, with a focus on use in specific environments. More details at the show.

The virtual world will be another theme on the Geda stand with its ‘feel the reality’ interactive environment for its products and services.

This includes Geda Central, which allows customers to access its services with one user account, along with the Installation Designer online calculation tool for anchoring and ground forces, as well as the company’s new BIM Centre with its library of virtual models.
