Bobcat presents new forklifts and warehouse equipment at LogiMAT 2025

At LogiMAT, to be held March 11-13 in Stuttgart, Bobcat will showcase two major innovations as part of a comprehensive presentation of its various product lines for logistics and material handling. These include diesel and electric forklifts, order picking trucks and warehouse equipment such as pallet trucks and stackers. New features include the Class 3 warehouse equipment line and a new series of 3-wheel Li-ION counterbalance forklifts. Bobcat can be found during LogiMAT at booth B57 in Hall 9.

The new line of warehouse equipment consists of the following models:

• the BPM16/20N-7 walking model pallet trucks with a capacity of 1.6 and 2 tons
• the BPR20/25N-7 powered pallet trucks with platform and capacity of 2 and 2.5 tons
• the BSR12/16N-7 electric stackers with platform and capacity of 1.2 and 1.6 tons
• the BSR16N-7i electric stacker with platform and first lift function with a capacity of 1.6 tons

The new BPM16/20N-7 pallet trucks are the perfect solution for various applications in small and medium-sized businesses, manufacturing plants and warehouses. The long steering arm allows for ergonomic operation. As a result, less effort is required while the operator maintains an optimal distance from the pallet truck. Top quality components, strong construction, a travel speed of 6 km/h and easy maintenance make the pallet trucks in this series reliable partners for logistics operations.

With a travel speed of 8 mph, the BPR20/25N-7 pallet trucks with platform made for optimal horizontal transport over longer distances. Equipped with electric power steering (EPS), these pallet trucks offer ergonomic and safe operation. The sprung folding platform minimizes body vibrations and the protective side arms provide additional stability and protect the operator during turning movements. For walk-behind mode, the platform and arms fold into the pallet truck's storage compartment.

The BSR12/16N-7 stackers with platform have capacities of 1.2 and 1.6 tons. Designed for high efficiency, they excel in operations where heavy loads need to be stored or collected. The ergonomic, suspended and folding platform with protective arms greatly improves operational efficiency. The pallet trucks can lift up to a height of 5.5 meters and are also perfect for operations at longer distances. 

Thanks to the robust 8 mm. thick metal guard, strong chassis, durable mast, metal battery cover and components from leading suppliers, these models reduce maintenance costs and are guaranteed to always be ready for professional use. The EPS system and proportional lift function ensure smooth and effortless stacking.

Li-ION forklifts with 3 wheels 

Bobcat is also introducing at LogiMAT the BNT series of 3-wheel Li-ION forklifts designed for light to medium duty applications. The three models, the B16NT, the B18NT and the B20NT, offer a cost-effective, environmentally friendly solution - tailored to the growing CL1 market. The new series is a great addition to Bobcat's counterbalance electric range. 

Good maneuverability is the main advantage of the design of these forklifts, making them ideal for use in tight spaces. Despite the compact size, these forklifts have excellent stability during all operations. An ergonomic design with guaranteed sufficient legroom and optimum operator comfort.

There are 3 models with different load capacities available:

• the B16NT with a load capacity of 1.6 tons and a lift height of 500 mm.
• the B18NT with load capacity of 1.8 tons and lift height of 500 mm.
• the B20NT with a load capacity of 2.0 tons and a lift height of 500 mm.

The main features of the forklifts are the dual drive with 4.5 kW motors for increased productivity; the maintenance-free 51.2 V, 300 Ah lithium battery (LFP) and 150 A charger (380 V); the electric parking brake for greater ease of use and safety and the comfortable dimensions. The forklifts are designed for tight spaces while still providing the operator with a spacious, comfortable cab.

Finally, on display at LogiMAT are Bobcat's LSM12N-7 and BSL12/16N-7 stackers, which now have a first lift function. They are also now available with lithium batteries.
