Narrow booms from Dingli

Chinese manufacturer Dingli has launched two new narrow aisle articulated electric boom lifts, the 44ft BA15NE and 49ft BA17NE, with maximum working heights of 15.5 and 17 metres respectively.

Both models have an overall width of 1.5 metres, and a transport length with jib tucked of 5.06 metres, with an overall height just over two metres. Total weight is 7,580kg on the BA15 and 7,950kg for the BA17.

Both units employ a classic sigma type dual riser, two section telescopic boom and jib with 130 degrees of articulation. Outreach is 9.7 metres on both, at an up & over clearance height of 5.5 metres on the BA15 and seven metres on the BA17 – the difference between the two is the length of the riser arms. They also feature zero tailswing, with the risers fully contained within the width of the machine width when they are fully raised. Maximum unrestricted platform capacity is 225kg.

While the standard unit is two wheel drive and steer as you might expect we understand that four wheel drive and steer will be available as an option.

Power comes from a 48volt 300Ah battery pack, which combined with AC electric motors allows the unit to work at least a full shift, and in most applications considerably longer. While it has not been confirmed, we expect the BA17 will be on the Dingli stand at Bauma.
