French access and telehandler manufacturer 712 Haulotte returned to profit in 2012 and, though the first quarter of 2013 is down year-on-year, CEO Alexandre Saubot remains confident about continued growth this year.

“We achieved a decent performance in 2012 with almost 16% growth,” said Saubot. “2013 will remain a challenge for us, we will have to continue to work hard for sales growth.”

Latin American markets showed the strongest recovery last year, led by Brazil, with sales up 76% in the region. This was followed by North America, up 27%, Asia Pacific gaining 24% and Europe recovering to 5.3% growth.

Saubot admitted that sales in the first quarter are down 5% on last year but he said this related to a number of large deals, which have been moved to the second quarter.

“Quarter two will be key and 688 Bauma is definitely one the key events of the year,” he said.

Stand: F9 903/5

    ZF used bauma 2013 to show the next stage of development for its cPower continuously variable transmission (CVT). By combining the transmission with a hybrid module, ZF said greater operating efficiencies were available from the integration of start/stop technology and energy recovery from regenerative braking. Potentially, the hybrid drive system has the ability to boost fuel efficiency by up to 25% in addition to the 20% higher operating efficiency already offered by the cPower transmission, said ZF.
