Our electric and hybrid-powered boom lifts provide the obvious benefits: Energy efficiency, quiet operation , lower weight and lower cost. Industrial applications where the machines must be driven significant distances, the Genie FE hybrid system combines the benefits of a 48V DC machine with the power. Several models feature a 48V DC electric drive system, which can be freely used in areas where quiet, emission-free operation is important. The Genie Z-40/23N model was the first in the industry to feature an AC drive system, which combines DC batteries with 3-phase AC drive motors for boom lift quiet, more energy efficient operation and longer battery life. This advanced system yields better drive speed and grade-ability, and the drive wheels work independently for excellent traction control. This system is also found on the Genie Z-33/18 boom. Feel about alternatively powered booms. The market is looking for cleaner, greener and quieter equipment in the field, especiall
