T7X: The world’s first all-electric compact track loader

| Powered by an advanced lithium-ion battery, the T7X features a fully electric drive system in place of a traditional hydraulic work group. |
The Bobcat T7X, the world’s first all-electric compact track loader, is in action in the booth demo area.
Powered by an advanced lithium-ion battery, the T7X features a fully electric drive system in place of a traditional hydraulic work group. It is built with about half the parts and components required for a diesel-engine loader, driving down maintenance and overall operating costs to levels never reached before.
Producing zero emissions, the all-electric platform offers instantaneous power with no need for a hydraulic system to build up power. The T7X offers an exceptional operator experience with drastically reduced noise and vibration, making it ideal for indoor worksites as well as urban areas where noise restrictions can limit work hours.
Currently in production in North America, the T7X will initially be available through Sunbelt Rentals.
E35 compact excavator with intelligent controls
Bobcat is showing one of its newest technology concepts, intelligent controls on an E35 compact excavator at bauma.
The hydraulically controlled joysticks are replaced by an intelligent control system and joysticks, which allows Bobcat to customize the machine controls to all levels of operator skill.
With the help of integrated sensors, the machine can perform a series of semi-automated tasks such as helping the operator with precise grading and leveling, trenching or repetitive tasks such as return-to-dig. More information about the most innovative Bobcat E35 will be forthcoming.

Quad Tracks: bauma Innovation Award finalist
Currently in limited production in North America, Quadtracks take the versatility of Bobcat skid-steer loaders to new heights. The four, independent track pods can replace the wheels of select skid-steer loaders for a wide range of applications that require greater traction, improved pushing power and a light footprint. Quadtracks also provide improved ground contact and greater operator comfort on difficult terrain.
New solutions for operator vision technology
Bobcat is displaying new solutions for operator vision technology with a transparent, touch organic light emitting diode (OLED) display.
The transparent display, which operators can see through to also view the jobsite, can be positioned on the front windshield or a cab side window on a range of Bobcat machines, including compact excavators, telehandlers and loaders.
The multi-functional display enhances operator productivity, efficiency and visibility to the task at hand.
The display was developed in conjunction with LG Electronics and BSI Research.
