Linde Material Handling presents products and solutions with outstanding performance
Once again this year, the eye-catching Linde Material Handling stand in Hall 10 at LogiMAT will feature numerous products and solutions making their debut at the trade fair in Stuttgart. These include the Linde E and Xi electric counterbalanced trucks with a load capacity of up to 2 tons. With a total of 26 models, these trucks offer state-of-the-art performance and ergonomics. The exhibition also highlights the company’s commitment to automation. This year, the solution provider is again significantly expanding its portfolio with a total of five new Linde MATIC models. The MATIC:move software, which has been designed to facilitate the planning, commissioning, maintenance and servicing of automated vehicles, will also be on display. Last but not least, the cloud-based myLinde customer portal will go live in time for LogiMAT. This portal offers a comprehensive suite of software solutions, including the Linde connect fleet management system, the Linde Safety Guard assistance system and the battery charge management application Linde connect:charger, all accessible through a single interface for seamless management and control.
The centrally located stand in Hall 10, which has grown to 612 square meters (stand numbers B21, B17 and C38), is complemented by two additional outdoor areas that have become well established in recent years and are directly adjacent to the hall. In the loading yard between Halls 8 and 10, just a few steps away, visitors can test various forklift models for themselves and receive individual demonstrations. This year, the focus will be on the new three- and four-wheel electric forklifts. Another “touch and feel” exhibition area for the vehicles, complete with expert advice, is located in the exhibition park between Halls 9 and 10.
“These three exhibition areas offer visitors the opportunity to obtain comprehensive information and advice on what Linde MH has to offer. Throughout the event, experts will be on hand to answer questions and discuss solutions to intralogistics challenges,” says Dr. Monika Laurent-Junge, Senior Director Marketing and Brand Communications at Linde MH. ”Linde MH covers the entire spectrum, from manual to automated industrial trucks, software solutions and product-related services. Other focus topics include safety and energy solutions.”
The new Linde E and Xi electric counterbalanced forklift trucks, with load capacities ranging from 1.0 to 2.0 tons, are the focus of the exhibition and set a new standard in the industry in terms of performance, ergonomics and compact design. The wide range of models ensures that there is a perfect match for a wide range of customer requirements. The Linde Xi10 to Xi20 models feature an integrated 90-volt lithium-ion battery and a synchronous reluctance motor for high acceleration and fast lifting/lowering speeds. The Linde E14 to E20 models offer versatility, allowing operators to switch between lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries or continue to use existing batteries using the plug-and-play principle.
“The demand for automated solutions from Linde MH has increased significantly over the past year. New truck models and the MATIC:move software make it even easier and more cost-effective to get started with automation. At the same time, Linde MH also offers options for mapping complex material flow processes. LogiMAT is an ideal opportunity for professionals responsible for automation initiatives in companies to explore the comprehensive range of Linde MH products and services at the company's stand,” says Torsten Rochelmeyer, Senior Director Strategy & Solution Portfolio at Linde MH, inviting trade visitors to drop by.
The number of software solutions that fleet managers can use to improve safety in the workplace, make administration, control and maintenance more efficient, or optimize battery charge management is also increasing. In the future, it will be possible to manage all these processes via a single application. “With ‘myLinde’, we offer a comprehensive suite of solutions from a single source, streamlining administration for our customers,” says Torsten Rochelmeyer.
