Engine maker Kohler will debut its K-HEM Series of hybrid engines by rolling out the model K-HEM 1003 on a Spyder DT28 aerial work platform (MEWP) at the GIS Expo in Italy, Oct. 7-9.
The Spyder DT28 MEWP grew out of collaboration between Kohler and Cela. Kohler calls the DT28 a perfect match for the hybrid unit K-HEM 1003 engine.
“Always focused on uncompromised innovation and the development of new technologies capable of making our products unique, we are convinced that this is the first step of a long path aimed at reaching increasingly ambitious targets,” said Paolo Troni, CEO at Cela.
The internal combustion engine doesn’t require aftertreatment systems, so it needs no downtime for regeneration.
The electric unit allows reaching high peaks of power required by the machine, thus guaranteeing a high level of productivity.
“The aerial working platform Spyder DT28 is the perfect example of the power to work together: It represents the outcome of a complete integration between the hybrid unit and the machine aimed at maximizing productivity and minimizing the battery pack size” said Massimiliano Bonanni, general manager of product strategy at Kohler Engines.
