Sinoboom Launches Dual-ETM Smart Technology

09 Mar 2026 CW Team

Sinoboom recently introduced its Dual-ETM Smart Technology at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026, designed to enhance battery endurance and operational efficiency in electric boom lifts.

The new technology integrates advanced components that enable real-time optimisation of power usage during equipment operation. By calculating the precise power requirement instantly, the system delivers only the energy needed for each movement, reducing the inefficiencies associated with conventional maximum-demand power systems.

The solution incorporates multiple sensors—including pressure, weight, length and level sensors—which continuously relay operational data. A permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) improves the efficiency of the oil pump drive system, while a CAN-bus controlled multi-valve system reduces flow loss and enhances control precision.

According to Sinoboom, extensive real-world testing has shown that boom lifts equipped with Dual-ETM Smart Technology consume about 30 per cent less energy and deliver nearly 30 per cent longer endurance compared with machines operating on standard systems.

Hyman Yu, Head of the Global Product Management Center at Sinoboom, noted that the technology represents a significant advancement for electric boom lift performance and efficiency. The company believes the new system could establish a practical benchmark for energy-efficient aerial work platforms in the construction and industrial equipment sector."
