Rent electric telehandlers for halls and sites

Electric telehandlers combine the load capacity and reach of conventional telehandlers with a quiet drive that produces no local emissions. Luibl Rental rents models such as the Manitou MT 625e as well as Twin-Energy machines from Magni, which run on electricity or diesel depending on the job. With our own low-loader fleet we deliver directly to your site, throughout Belgium.

Switching to electric drive on telehandlers affects not only the motor but the entire drive and hydraulic architecture. Battery management and the charging cycles of the lithium-ion systems used are decisive for operation. Unlike lead-acid batteries, modern lithium-ion batteries allow:

• interim charging during work breaks without memory effect
• constant power output with full torque regardless of the state of charge
• lower maintenance, as no battery water needs topping up

Another technical difference lies in the hydraulics: while on diesel engines the hydraulic pump often keeps running at idle, an electric telehandler only uses energy when it is actually driving, lifting or rotating. This increases net operating time per charge and lowers operating costs.

For planning a job, the specific battery and charging data are decisive. Battery capacity, charging time, available charging connections and charging power vary depending on the model and application. Luibl Rental advises on the right configuration for single- and multi-shift operation and agrees the charging infrastructure on site with you. Twin-Energy models, such as those in the Magni RTH range, also have an auxiliary diesel drive. This allows switching between electric and diesel operation depending on the location - for example electric in the hall and diesel for longer journeys on the outdoor site, without the need for a second machine.

Electric telehandlers are now specifically required in many tenders. Luibl Rental serves three areas in particular:

The use of electric telehandlers is now mandatory in many tenders. Luibl Rental serves three core areas in particular:

Indoor logistics and factory halls

In enclosed halls, for example in the food or pharmaceutical industry, exhaust fumes are an exclusion criterion. An electric telehandler enables racking installation and maintenance work on ceiling structures without affecting the air quality in the hall. Quiet operation also reduces noise exposure for other staff in the hall.

Tunnel construction and underground car park refurbishment

In areas with limited ventilation, companies using electric machines save investment and operating costs for large extraction systems. The compact design of many electric models also makes it easier to work under height restrictions.

Night sites and urban areas

Noise regulations in city centres often restrict the use of loud machines in the evening and at night. Electric telehandlers from Luibl Rental operate quietly, making it easier to comply with local noise limits on multi-shift jobs.

Electric telehandlers are particularly suitable for halls, tunnels, inner-city sites and other emission- or noise-sensitive applications. Load capacity, lift height, reach, machine dimensions, battery capacity, charging connection and planned operating time are decisive when selecting the right model. Luibl Rental supports you with the technical choice of machine and organises delivery throughout Belgium.

Electric telehandlers today achieve load capacities of 5 tonnes and more and, with booms of up to 26 metres lift height, cover a large share of industrial installation work. Integrating 360-degree rotation into electric machines requires loss-free energy transfer through the slewing ring. Luibl Rental relies on slip ring technology in the Magni roto models it offers.

Renting an electric telehandler offers several economic advantages:

• electricity costs per operating hour are often below the fuel costs of a comparable diesel machine
• lower maintenance: no engine oil filter changes, no AdBlue after-treatment
• using machines with no local emissions supports sustainability records, for example in public procurement procedures

Electric telehandlers from Luibl Rental have the same safety systems as their diesel counterparts, supplemented by battery-specific monitoring:

• digital load moment indicator (LMI) with real-time stability monitoring
• integrated diagnostics that detect voltage drops or thermal anomalies in the battery pack and initiate protective measures
• inspection of all electrical components in line with applicable Belgian safety rules and NBN EN standards
