Jan Moravec, Vice President of Product, Bobcat EMEA, <\/strong>said: \u201cBobcat Demo Days 2024 will allow visitors to gain firsthand experience of our latest innovations, products, attachments and services, while providing a golden opportunity for our team members to engage with Bobcat\u2019s community from all over the EMEA region. These invitation-only events are among the most anticipated fixtures in our annual calendar, and we can\u2019t wait to give this year\u2019s guests some hands-on time with our full equipment lineup.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>A suite of industry-leading innovations<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bobcat Demo Days 2024 is showcasing a number of cutting-edge, industry-leading innovations, including the manufacturer\u2019s TL25.60e<\/strong> electric telehandler concept. The model, which is still in development and not yet commercially available, has a rated capacity of 2.5 tonne and a lifting height of almost 6 m, matching the performance offered by its diesel-powered equivalent. With three separated electric motors designed to maximize efficiency, a hydrostatic transmission to boost performance, a maximum speed of 25 km\/h and the same super-compact dimensions as the conventional Bobcat TL25.60, the cutting-edge electric concept delivers low noise levels, minimal operating costs and impressive versatility. This is the first time Bobcat has given customers and partners the opportunity to get hands-on time with its TL25.60e concept.<\/p>\n

Attendees will have an opportunity to experience Bobcat\u2019s transparent OLED (T-OLED) screen technology<\/strong>, which has been developed in collaboration with LG and BSI Research. T-OLED enables operators to access an array of functionality without taking their eyes off the worksite, offering unparalleled clarity, responsiveness and visibility. It also has the capacity to facilitate a range of more advanced applications, such as real-time virtual reality (VR) simulations for utility line mapping.<\/p>\n

The RogueX2 concept skid-steer loader<\/strong> is another innovation on display at Bobcat Demo Days 2024, although attendees won\u2019t be able to climb into the machine\u2019s cab as it doesn\u2019t have one. This autonomous, all-electric model has been built as a proving ground for technologies developed as part of Bobcat\u2019s innovation roadmap, offering a glimpse of how future generations of loaders will facilitate an entirely new work experience for users.<\/p>\n

Vijay Nerva, Innovation Lead, Bobcat EMEA, <\/strong>commented: \u201cThe RogueX2 produces zero emissions thanks to its lithium-ion battery, electric drive system and electric-actuated lift and tilt kinematics with no hydraulics. A follow-up to the RogueX, which we introduced at CONEXPO-CON\/AGG 2023, the RogueX2 is a skid-steer version that features wheels instead of tracks to optimize its electric battery runtime, and its axial flux motors deliver incredible tractive effort.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bobcat will use this year\u2019s event to showcase its Operator Presence<\/strong> technology, a concept that is currently being developed for excavator models. Operator Presence leverages a 3D time-of-flight (ToF) camera \u2013 advanced technology more commonly utilized in emerging sectors such as autonomous vehicles, robotics, gesture recognition and virtual reality (VR) \u2013 to enhance safety by monitoring users\u2019 movements and the wider cabin environment. By actively tracking the operator’s presence and interactions within the cabin, the system can prevent unintended machine actions, ensuring a safer work environment \u2013 especially in close quarters. It can also detect multiple occupants, instantly disable workgroups to avoid accidents and recognize when a joystick is released, deactivating the associated workgroup while maintaining drive. These proactive safety measures are designed to minimize the risk of accidents, improve operator control and, ultimately, enhance overall worksite efficiency.<\/p>\n

Guests at Bobcat Demo Days 2024 will get to witness Bobcat\u2019s Pedestrian Detection Camera<\/strong> in action. The device\u2019s software is able to differentiate between humans and their surroundings thanks to its AI-enabled processing capabilities, helping to eliminate unnecessary operator alerts. The innovation\u2019s database is also able to identify humans in different postures and positions, including standing, kneeling, crouching, sitting, with their backs turned, and even when they are only partially visible.<\/p>\n

Bobcat will also showcase its Digital Access<\/strong> software, an advanced system that allows operators to use smartphones as \u2018keys\u2019 to specific machines, providing an alternative to existing passcode entry functionality while ensuring units understand the preferences of their users before they begin work. In addition, this innovation enables fleet owners to lock out certain functionality or attachments in line with the respective skillsets of their employees.<\/p>\n

These six innovations are the latest in a long line of advanced solutions that Bobcat has developed to enable its customers to accomplish more.<\/p>\n
