Full flexibility thanks to battery and AC power operation: SENNEBOGEN 826 G Electro Battery in waste wood processing

Hahn Kompost is active in the processing of waste wood and green waste, composting, and wood chip production. To reduce the use of fossil fuels and consistently utilize renewable energy, the company is gradually converting its facilities to electric operation. The first step is the waste wood processing line, which now uses an electric shredder, wheel loaders, and the SENNEBOGEN 826 G Electro Battery A photovoltaic system supplies the electricity generated on-site for this purpose. “We simply want to move away from fossil fuels and use the energy we produce ourselves,” explains Managing Director Michael Hahn.

Machine operator Franz Traidl is also convinced of the advantages in his day-to-day work. He knows how it compares to a diesel machine from his own experience. For him, the lower noise level, ease of operation, and reduced maintenance requirements make all the difference. 

“You have less maintenance because you no longer have air filters, no need to refuel, no AdBlue, and it’s significantly quieter,” Traidl summarizes.

Especially when working indoors, the quiet electric operation ensures pleasant working conditions. The audio comfort system with active noise cancellation provides additional support. The precise controls are also impressive: The machine responds immediately to joystick movements and can be operated with great sensitivity. Using the SENcon control system, Traidl can also customize lift speeds and functions.
