Genkinger Trucks
North American operations that move steel coils, cable reels, and other heavy, awkward loads need equipment that is safe, compact, and purpose built. On this page we introduce selected Genkinger solutions on the HUBTEX platform, engineered Low Lift Truck and High Lift Truck models for precise Coil handling and other Specialized heavy duty handling solutions. Genkinger is part of the HUBTEX Group, combining decades of application expertise with global service coverage.
All Genkinger Trucks
EGU Low-Lift Truck for Cable Drum Handling
Electric low-lift truck for cable drum handling with prismatic forks, compact counterweight-free design, full visibility, low floor load, and quiet, emission-free drive for precise, crane-free placement.
EGP Pedestrian High-Lift Truck
The Genkinger EGP is a pedestrian, electric high-lift truck built to move coils directly from storage to the payoff reel without a crane.
HUBTEX Clear Aisle Assist
Clear Aisle Assist is a patented LiDAR aisle-monitoring system for narrow aisles on all PHOENIX multidirectional sideloaders, detecting protruding loads in both directions. It warns the operator and automatically slows or stops to prevent collisions—
MSL multidirectional sideloader
The electric multidirectional sideloader MSL is designed for outdoor use. It handles long and heavy loads of up to 11,000 lbs efficiently and with zero emissions, even on uneven surfaces and over long travel distances.
ML 50 electric multidirectional sideloader
The HUBTEX ML 50 H is a multidirectional sideloader specifically engineered for the German Armed Forces for the transport of heavyweight torpedoes. Its custom-engineered fork tines ensure optimum load carrier pick-up and transfer. The hybrid drive
HUBTEX Connectivity Solutions
Instant access to live data on your forklift fleet – anytime, anywhere. Previously only possible for remote maintenance of HUBTEX forklifts, a comprehensive fleet management solution is now available. The new connectivity solutions provide you with a
Electric towing tractor with hydraulic gooseneck
The HUBTEX seated electric tow tractor with hydraulic gooseneck is designed for handling cargo trailers in applications where coils must be transported frequently, quickly, and reliably. It is also ideally suited for the fast and reliable transport
DRUM TRANSPORTER
HUBTEX drum transporters are custom-engineered special-purpose vehicles designed for the in-house transport of heavy cable reels and pipe drums weighing up to 60 tons. They ensure safe handling even in confined spaces and are ideally suited for
Skip and container transporters
HUBTEX skip and container transporters are engineered for wastewater treatment plants, waste-to-energy facilities, and waste management companies, providing reliable transport of heavy skips and containers weighing up to 25 tons, even in challenging

Low Lift Truck: Ground level power, maximum stability
Genkinger Low Lift Truck platforms, walk behind or rider, are ideal for ground level moves up to line side delivery. Key advantages:
- Low pick heights for fast changeovers and reduced operator strain
- High traction electric drive for smooth starts on polished industrial floors
- Integrated coil cradles, reel mandrels, or V attachments to prevent load rotation during acceleration, braking, and cornering
- Compact chassis options for narrow aisles and dock congestion
Use cases include steel service centers, wire and cable manufacturing, paper and film converters, and automotive stamping plants.
High Lift Truck: Precise stacking and elevated transfers
When stacking, racking, or feeding machines at height, Genkinger High Lift Truck solutions offer controlled vertical travel and fine positioning:
- Rigid mast designs with proportional lift and lower for delicate Coil handling at tooling infeed points
- Straddle and counterbalanced configurations for varying drum diameters and pallet footprints
- Visibility optimized mast and carriage layouts to keep the load and fork tips in clear view
- Optional side shift and tilt functions to align coils or reels without re spotting
Genkinger: Built for heavy duty, tuned to your process
Every application is different. Genkinger systems scale from frequent short shuttle runs to continuous multi shift duty, with battery technologies and charging concepts tailored to throughput. Attachments are quick to change, control interfaces are intuitive, and safety options such as load backrests, end of stroke damping, and speed dependent cornering support consistent, incident free operation.
