Genie, Redmond Wash., has introduced its Z-40\23N Articulating Boom which features Genie’s new AC drive system. Ideal for up, out and over applications in tight workplaces, the Z-40\23N offers contractors a narrow profile of 4 feet 11 inches wide, which allows it to easily fit through standard-sized double doors. With a tight inside turning radius of 2 feet 11 inches, it can easily maneuver through tight passageways and congested work areas. The boom also features Genie’s new AC drive system, combining DC batteries with three-phase AC drive motors for quiet, more energy-efficient operation and continuous control of drive speed, traction control, braking and turning.
