Our award-winning industrial sideloaders are recognised around the world as brand leaders, offering exemplary performance.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since 1969, Baumann has remained privately owned and based at our specialised manufacturing facility in Cavaion, on the shores of Lake Garda. A family company to this day, Baumann now sells its 3 to 50 tonnes sideloaders worldwide through 106 dealers in 76 countries. Thanks to a qualified sales and aftersales service network we provide professional technical support, training and parts supply to our customers and distributors the world over.<\/p>\n<p>We have a proud and distinguished history, combining a generation of engineering expertise with modern craftmanship and a spirit of innovation. Our in-house design team first developed and produced a machine for PRM over a decade ago.<\/p>\n<p>We began collaborating on ground support equipment\u00a0when we worked with\u00a0Lufthansa Leos and Catcon to produce the first sideloader-based trucks.\u00a0Whilst this type of equipment is still on the market, our experience\u00a0with raising and transporting materials led us to look at new and better ways of providing safer, smoother and more practical ways to transport PRM and VIP passengers.<\/p>\n<p>Our starting point for the PaxLift was comfort, convenience and reliability. \u201cWe saw a need for a high quality passenger cabin with lifting capacity from ground level up <img class=\"wp-image-820 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/paxlift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/FLTA-Award-2016-Winner_sm.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"176\" height=\"237\" srcset=\"https:\/\/paxlift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/FLTA-Award-2016-Winner_sm-200x270.jpg 200w, https:\/\/paxlift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/FLTA-Award-2016-Winner_sm-222x300.jpg 222w, https:\/\/paxlift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/FLTA-Award-2016-Winner_sm.jpg 332w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 176px) 100vw, 176px\" \/>to 8,000mm,\u201d says managing director, Klaus Pirpamer, \u201csomething which offers easy access and great manoeuvrability to reach the airplane door, and is in keeping with the Baumann ethos of quality and reliability.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Technical director, Riccardo Bove, masterminded the company\u2019s latest award, the 2016 FLTA Award for Innovation Excellence, and helped develop the new thinking behind the PaxLift. Says Riccardo: \u201cOur previous experience in aircraft ground support and our work with industrial equipment gave us the insights to design the next generation &#8216;Ambulift&#8217;. One that gives precise control and maximum comfort within a small footprint &#8211; just 2,500mm wide, and 3,100mm high when lowered.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Having exhibited at ground support equipment and airport passenger transport events on both sides of the Atlantic, the dedicated design and high lifting capacities (up to 2,000kg) has created surprisingly high interest for PaxLift. Other key benefits include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>All wheel steer &amp; integrated suspension.<\/li>\n<li>Space for minimum six wheelchair passengers with assistants.<\/li>\n<li>Extremely compact, with a small turning radius.<\/li>\n<li>Comfortable, fast &amp; smooth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Our philosophy of high service levels, world class industrial vehicles and reliable innovation neatly fits the needs of the airline and GSE industries. We understand that safety and the punctual departure of the aircraft is paramount.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignright wp-image-801\" src=\"http:\/\/paxlift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PaxLift_cad.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"285\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/paxlift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PaxLift_cad-200x175.jpg 200w, https:\/\/paxlift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PaxLift_cad-300x263.jpg 300w, https:\/\/paxlift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PaxLift_cad-400x350.jpg 400w, https:\/\/paxlift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PaxLift_cad-600x526.jpg 600w, https:\/\/paxlift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PaxLift_cad-768x673.jpg 768w, https:\/\/paxlift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PaxLift_cad-800x701.jpg 800w, https:\/\/paxlift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PaxLift_cad.jpg 1007w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 285px) 100vw, 285px\" \/>With a tighter turning circle, clearer view and smaller footprint, we believe the PaxLift is the safest option available. A choice of three or four lifting columns, with integrated suspension, makes the operation fast and smooth, whilst the hydraulically powered steering axle ensures continuous reliability and performance.<\/p>\n<p>Standard trucks are fitted with a Stage 4 Final Diesel engine, electric trucks are manufactured upon request.<\/p>\n<p>As a purpose-built machine, rather than an adapted commercial vehicle, Baumann ensures the right level of engineering technology.<\/p>\n<p>The design concept is not changed, adapted or compromised to achieve the right level of operability.<\/p>\n<p>The result is better value, a reliable service period and faster return on investment. We also avoid the inherent problems associated with adapted PRM vehicles, such as chain maintenance, slow loading times and uncomfortable, often manually intensive, experiences for passengers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baumann has almost 50 years of experience in development, design and production of industrial vehicles.
