Dutch producer, Big has just lately launched a sequence of recent off-highway automobiles for development, agricultural and landscaping functions.
New compact wheel loaders
Big’s newest compact wheel loaders, the G2400, G2400HD, G2550HD and G2550HD+, constructed from the bottom up, these new era loaders have been designed to supply distinctive efficiency, ergonomics, and flexibility.
The brand new era of compact wheel loaders function superior hydraulic performance and exact management for dealing with a wide range of (hydraulically pushed) attachments, all included right into a machine with compact dimensions. Through the use of hydraulic wheel motors as a substitute of conventional axles, it permits key parts just like the engine to be positioned decrease within the body.
Together with a protracted 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 affords excessive efficiency with the G2550HD and G2550HD+ peaking at 50 hp, making it a great selection for demanding duties in difficult functions 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 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 elective 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 immediately by way of a drop-box. This eliminates power inefficiencies widespread in hydrostatic methods, bettering each efficiency and power effectivity. With a pulling pressure of 12.5kN, the G2200E Tele can simply deal with heavy-duty work. The G2200E Tele affords three selectable pace ranges to go well with varied 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 computerized 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 simple to function a number of capabilities on the similar time with out sacrificing energy or pace
Geared up with on-board charging as normal, operators can simply cost the machine at any location. With Big’s exterior high-frequency charger, the battery might be charged to 80% in a single hour. The machine is provided with a 260Ah battery as normal and comes with battery choices of 390Ah or 520Ah, relying on the operational wants.
The most recent 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. Additionally it is good for engaged on elevated work platforms and areas the place low weight is vital. Similar to its standard powered counterpart, the GS950TE comes with tracks, making it best for engaged on delicate terrains. Beginning at a weight of 1,020 kg, the GS950TE supplies extra traction and floatation.
Each fashions provide 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 measurement 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 primarily based on the oil temperature, that means the fan doesn’t must run constantly. This function not solely saves power but additionally reduces noise ranges, contributing to a extra snug working surroundings, particularly in noise-sensitive areas.
The electrical skid-steers come normal with a high-performance Jungheinrich LFP battery. Each fashions can accommodate a second battery, providing a mixed 23.3kWh capability – the biggest capability obtainable within the electrical skid-2 steer market.
For comfort, each fashions include on-board charging with a charging energy of three.3kW, appropriate with a CEE connector, whereas an EV Kind 2 plug can also be obtainable. 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 provide the very 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 adequate energy for traditional duties whereas conserving power. When extra demanding functions 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 obtainable, these loaders provide distinctive versatility, supporting varied attachments.
