The IAA 2024, one of the world's most important trade fairs for mobility, transport, and logistics, once again provided a platform for innovations and technological advancements in these fields. Among the exhibitors were PALFINGER EPSILON, presenting the new EPSILON TL12 TEC, a state-of-the-art crane currently undergoing Customer Acceptance Testing. This phase is expected to be completed by mid-2025, with the first deliveries to follow after the tests are concluded.

The EPSILON TL12 TEC exemplifies the fusion of mechanical precision and digital innovation. Its modular design and the wide range of TEC features, offered as optional, allow the crane to be customized and tailored to the specific needs of the customers. This makes the TL12 TEC especially future-proof and versatile in its applications. Some of the standout features include:


•    End position damping (Full sensor integration): This function reduces mechanical shocks at the end of the movement range, helping to avoid wear and tear, while increasing operational safety and operator comfort.
•    SMART CONTROL: The innovative SMART CONTROL system enables intuitive and precise handling of the crane. This feature allows the operator to control the crane with minimal effort and high precision, significantly enhancing the efficiency and safety of crane operations.
•    Connected+ (Telematics module): By connecting the crane to the telematics system, operational data can be monitored and evaluated in real time. This enables operators to detect maintenance needs early, minimize downtime, and optimize the overall fleet operations.
•    Automatic weighing system: The integrated weighing system allows for accurate measurement of the material being lifted or transported. This not only increases efficiency in work processes but also helps to comply with safety regulations, as overloads can be detected early.
HPLS+ (High Performance Lifting System)
For crane models equipped with HPLS+, the EPSILON TL12 TEC offers even higher performance. This feature provides additional lifting capacity and stability, which is a significant advantage in demanding and heavy-lifting environments. It greatly expands the crane's range of applications, making it a reliable tool in particularly challenging situations.


The IAA as a Stage for Innovation
The IAA 2024 once again demonstrated how the latest technologies and developments are revolutionizing the transport and logistics industry. At the heart of this transformation was the digitalization and networking of machines, making equipment like the EPSILON TL12 TEC not only more efficient but also safer and more sustainable.
The continuous development of such machines highlights that automation and intelligent control will play a key role in the future of the recycling and transport industries. The EPSILON TL12 TEC is an outstanding example of how digital solutions are being integrated into mechanical engineering to meet the growing demands of customers and markets.


Conclusion
The EPSILON TL12 TEC garnered a lot of attention at the IAA 2024. With its innovative features, flexibility, and future-proof expansion options, it sets new standards in the recycling industry. Visitors to the IAA were impressed by the crane's wide range of applications and high performance. The positive feedback underscores that EPSILON is on the right track with the TL12 TEC, not only meeting industry demands but setting new benchmarks.
