Dutch producer, Big has lately launched a collection of recent off-highway autos for building, agricultural and landscaping purposes.
New compact wheel loaders
Big’s newest compact wheel loaders, the G2400, G2400HD, G2550HD and G2550HD+, constructed from the bottom up, these new technology loaders have been designed to offer distinctive efficiency, ergonomics, and flexibility.
The brand new technology of compact wheel loaders function superior hydraulic performance and exact management for dealing with quite a lot of (hydraulically pushed) attachments, all included right into a machine with compact dimensions. Through the use of hydraulic wheel motors as an alternative of conventional axles, it permits key elements just like the engine to be positioned decrease within the body.
Together with an extended wheelbase, a low centre of gravity is the ultimate outcome, optimising tipping load and security when dealing with masses. Regardless of its compact dimensions, the loader gives excessive efficiency with the G2550HD and G2550HD+ peaking at 50 hp, making it a really perfect selection for demanding duties in difficult purposes and tight areas.
The Big G2200E Tele
The brand new Big G2200E Tele, an addition to its electrical (telescopic) wheel loader lineup, builds on the success of the G2200E which was launched in 2019.
The G2200E Tele is provided with a telescopic increase that delivers a most lifting top of three.395 meters, making it very best for stacking, loading, and different duties requiring excessive attain, whereas preserve the advantages of an articulated wheel loader. Moreover, the machine has a tipping load of 1,520kg with the non-obligatory extra counterweight, guaranteeing dependable efficiency when lifting heavy masses. The service weight is 2,300kg.
The primary 7kW electrical motor replaces the standard hydrostatic transmission, powering the axles instantly through a drop-box. This eliminates vitality inefficiencies widespread in hydrostatic techniques, enhancing each efficiency and vitality effectivity. With a pulling drive of 12.5kN, the G2200E Tele can simply deal with heavy-duty work. The G2200E Tele gives three selectable velocity ranges to go well with numerous duties (0-5km/h, 0-12km/h and 18km/h).
The Hill-Maintain management function ensures the machine doesn’t roll backward when working on inclines. An automated brake engages when wanted, offering confidence
A second electrical motor of 12kW powers the hydraulic system, delivering a 35l/min capability at as much as 170 bar, guaranteeing robust and constant hydraulic energy for attachments and different hydraulic operations. The hydraulic system permits for simultaneous operation of the lifting and telescopic cylinders, offering easy, environment friendly management for demanding duties. This makes it straightforward to function a number of features on the identical time with out sacrificing energy or velocity
Outfitted with on-board charging as customary, operators can simply cost the machine at any location. With Big’s exterior high-frequency charger, the battery could be charged to 80% in a single hour. The machine is provided with a 260Ah battery as customary and comes with battery choices of 390Ah or 520Ah, relying on the operational wants.
The newest skid steer loaders
In January 2025, manufacturing begins for Big’s two totally electrical skid-steer loaders: GS900E and GS950TE. Each machines mix efficiency with
The GS900E, outfitted with wheels, has a service weight beginning at simply 880 kg. It’s also good for engaged on elevated work platforms and areas the place low weight is essential. Identical to its standard powered counterpart, the GS950TE comes with tracks, making it very best for engaged on gentle terrains. Beginning at a weight of 1,020 kg, the GS950TE gives extra traction and floatation.
Each fashions supply a lift mode, enabling the GS900E to achieve speeds of as much as 7.5 km/h, whereas the GS950TE achieves as much as 6 km/h. Regardless of their compact dimension with a wheelbase of 670 mm for the GS900E and a floor contact size of 830 mm for the GS950TE, these skid-steer loaders ship spectacular tipping capacities as much as 500kg for the GS900E and as much as 890kg for the GS950TE.
Each loaders are outfitted with an oil cooler, which incorporates an modern, electric-controlled cooling fin. This technique prompts the fan proportionally based mostly on the oil temperature, which means the fan doesn’t have to run repeatedly. This function not solely saves vitality but in addition reduces noise ranges, contributing to a extra comfy working setting, particularly in noise-sensitive areas.
The electrical skid-steers come customary with a high-performance Jungheinrich LFP battery. Each fashions can accommodate a second battery, providing a mixed 23.3kWh capability – the biggest capability out there within the electrical skid-2 steer market.
For comfort, each fashions include on-board charging with a charging energy of three.3kW, suitable with a CEE connector, whereas an EV Sort 2 plug can also be out there. For sooner charging, customers can go for the Big ‘s exterior charging station, which might cost the machine from 10% to 90% in lower than an hour.
Each the GS900E and GS950TE skid-steer loaders supply the best hydraulic capacities within the electrical skid-steer market. In Eco Mode, the system delivers as much as 27l/min as much as 170 bar, offering ample energy for traditional duties whereas conserving vitality. When extra demanding purposes come up, enhance mode will increase hydraulic output to 38l/min as much as 180 bar, guaranteeing that attachments with extra complete hydraulic functionalities carry out at full capability. With a number of hydraulic connections out there, these loaders supply distinctive versatility, supporting numerous attachments.
