Smart charging starts with smart energy use.
You hear it more and more:
“The grid is overloaded.”
“Everyone wants to charge at the same time.”
“Charging on-site is way too expensive.”
“How do I get power to my machine, or my machine to a power source?”
Yes, building electrically definitely puts a strain on your energy network and your planning. Especially when working with heavy machinery. So how do you make sure you always have enough power without breaking the bank?
At Limach, we see it a bit differently.
The challenge: charging on-site
Heavy electric equipment uses a lot of energy. Naturally, everyone wants to plug in during lunch or at the end of the day. The result? Insufficient capacity and a lot of frustration.
Many companies turn to charging containers or hydrogen generators. Understandable - you want to keep working. And yes, these are great solutions: sustainable, flexible, clean. But also expensive. The price per kWh is often much higher than your regular energy contract. Not ideal if you want to keep costs under control.
Our solution: charge where and when it works for you
At Limach, we do things differently.
We don’t bring the charging solution to the site - we simply take the empty battery pack back to the workshop. Or smarter still: charge one battery while the machine runs on the other. That way, you're never dependent on what’s available on-site, and you can charge at the lowest possible rate.
That means:
- Charge when it suits you.
- Charge where it suits you.
- No more waiting for a free socket or expensive emergency connection.
But isn’t swapping batteries a hassle?
Not at all. Our battery swap system is designed with the operator in mind.
You can switch out a battery pack in under five minutes - no tools, no help needed. Every Limach machine from 6 tons and up comes with a built-in lifting arm system, so you can swap batteries quickly and easily, all by yourself.
The bottom line?
Electric construction calls for smart choices. By using your battery packs wisely, you reduce costs and avoid stress on-site. That way, you get the most out of your machine and your workday.
