Battery Material Handlers Advance Recycling Automation
SENNEBOGEN showcased emission-free recycling equipment and semi-autonomous process technologies at IFAT 2026 in Munich, Germany. www.sennebogen.com At the VDMA outdoor demonstration area, SENNEBOGEN and UNTHA demonstrated a semi-autonomous shredder feeding application with the new 826 G Electro Battery, showcasing the intelligent integration of modern recycling processes in practice. SENNEBOGEN presented battery-powered material handlers, intelligent process integration technologies and new recycling attachments at IFAT 2026, held in Munich, Germany. The company displayed nine machines across more than 526 m² of exhibition space, focusing on circular economy applications, recycling automation and emission-free material handling systems. Battery-powered recycling equipment targets emission-free operations A key focus of the exhibition was the expansion of the company’s Electro Battery machine portfolio. The battery-powered G-Series material handlers cover operating weights from 17 to 31 tonnes and are designed for recycling applications requiring reduced emissions and flexible operating modes. The machines incorporate modular battery systems and Dual Power Management technology, allowing operation either through onboard battery power or cable connection depending on site requirements. Such hybrid energy architectures are increasingly used in industrial equipment to support lower emissions while maintaining operational continuity during intensive workloads. The further developed SENNEBOGEN 360 G industrial telehandler impressed visitors at IFAT 2026 with new comfort, safety and assistance systems as well as the optional joystick steering system for precise and ergonomic operation. Semi-autonomous shredder feeding demonstrated at IFAT 2026 One of the main demonstrations at the VDMA outdoor area involved the world premiere of the 826 G Electro Battery integrated into a semi-autonomous shredder feeding process developed with UNTHA. The live application illustrated machine-to-machine communication supporting material flow optimisation in recycling operations. According to the demonstration concept, automated coordination between equipment can improve process efficiency and reduce operator intervention during repetitive tasks. The use of connected machines reflects broader industry trends toward digitalised recycling systems and automated material handling. IFAT 2026 took place in Munich and attracted approximately 142,000 visitors from nearly 160 countries and regions, alongside around 3,400 exhibitors. New orange peel grab expands scrap handling portfolio The company also introduced the MG4.1, a new five-tine orange peel grab developed for scrap and recycling applications. Manufactured at the company’s production site in Straubing, the attachment was engineered as part of an integrated machine-and-tool system intended to improve compatibility between handling equipment and attachments. The company stated that a dedicated production line has been established for manufacturing the new grab series, increasing production capacity and supporting regional employment growth. The new SENNEBOGEN MG4.1 orange peel grab celebrated its trade fair premiere at IFAT 2026 and attracted strong interest from visitors in the recycling and scrap handling sector. Telehandler developments focus on operator ergonomics and control systems Additional updates included enhancements to the 360 G industrial telehandler, incorporating new safety features, assistance systems and an optional joystick steering system. The telehandler combines conventional steering wheel operation with joystick control, enabling configurable handling preferences depending on application requirements. Operator assistance technologies and ergonomic controls are increasingly integrated into industrial machinery to reduce fatigue and improve precision during prolonged operation. Recycling technologies increasingly align with circular economy strategies The exhibition highlighted growing industry emphasis on circular economy practices, resource efficiency and resilient environmental technologies. Battery-powered equipment, intelligent machine communication and semi-autonomous workflows represent areas of ongoing development as recycling operations seek to improve throughput while reducing emissions and operational costs.
