Enerpac will launch the Pow'r-riser lifting jack at bauma China 2010, a unit that can be either electric or air-powered. The unit can be rolled into place, and because it is self-contained it is easy to place, with no hoses or cables to worry about.

The main applications for this product in the construction industry are in the lifting of heavy equipment or objects. It can be used to service tires and other maintenance functions on heavy equipment, lifting and positioning of large constructed elements and many other applications that require heavy lifting equipment in remote locations.

The company will also show its new BP-Series battery powered hydraulic pump, for applications like powering small to medium size cylinders or hydraulic tools, or wherever portable cordless hydraulic power is needed. The 28-Volt Lithium-Ion battery pack delivers constant fade-free power for tools like cutters, spreaders and splitters.
