Just in time for LIGNA, the world’s leading trade fair for tools, machines and equipment for woodworking and processing in Hanover, SENNEBOGEN is launching two new pick and carry timber handlers: the 724 G with 29 t and the 726 G with 31 t operating weight. The mobile timber handlers offer a tailor-made, state-of-the-art solution, especially for efficient log handling in medium-sized timber businesses and sawmills.

The reliable pick and carry timber handlers from SENNEBOGEN have been proving themselves in demanding practical use for decades. Now, not only has the 723 E been relaunched in the new, 6th machine generation as the 724 G, but the product range has also been supplemented by the slightly larger 726 G. With an operating weight of 31 t, this closes the existing gap to the 34-tonne 730 E.

735 E Electric Drive
The two material handler exhibits will be accompanied at LIGNA 2025 in Hanover by the SENNEBOGEN 735 E Electric Drive with an operating weight of around 44 t and a reach of 11.3 m. This pick and carry material handler with electric travel drive is unique on the market and impresses with its particularly energy-saving operation in demanding continuous operation. Thanks to the electric travel drive, the SENNEBOGEN 735 E Electric Drive ensures optimum performance and efficient processes in the log yard and sawmill. The machine has very high driving dynamics with high acceleration values. At the same time, it saves up to 30% fuel.

Proven pick and carry con¬cept trans¬ferred: safe and efficient
With a stacking height of up to 9 m and load capacities of up to 3.7 t at 10.5 m radius for the 724 G and 4.6 t for the 726 G, the new mobile material handlers can not only stack high, but can also reload and sort quickly and safely.

In direct comparison to wheel loaders and high-lifter solutions, the proven SENNEBOGEN pick and carry concept, which has now been used for the first time in this machine size, not only ensures even more safety in the log yard, but also enables optimum use of the available space thanks to its high maneuverability.

The pick and carry machine concept means that the boom linkage is positioned behind the center of the machine. This ensures that the center of gravity of the material handler is close to the center of the slewing ring. The weight of the machines is ideally distributed and a small rear ballast is sufficient to compensate, making the machine more compact and maneuverable. This allows fast handling in narrow pile aisles and shorter travel distances without time-consuming maneuvering – for efficient processes in the sawmill.

Added to this is the resulting increase in safety, which is not only due to the elimination of complex maneuvering, but above all due to the clear view from the cab. This is because the rear-hinged boom arm gives the driver a clear view to all sides. The rigid cab elevation also ensures optimum visibility from the cab – even when working on high piles and when unloading trucks.

Strong and stable when maneuvering and loading
The 724 G is powered by a 123 kW and the 726 G by a 129 kW Cummins Stage V diesel engine, which can also run on HVO fuel. Thanks to the stepless all-wheel drive, the robust machines can travel quickly at speeds of up to 20 km/h and, with their extra strong special axles, can also pull heavy, hydraulically braked trailers of up to 25 t with ease. The new pick and carry material handlers are therefore ideally equipped for use on inclines and difficult ground. The eight tires and optional stabilizing plates offer additional stability when loading heavy loads.

Update to the G series: increased efficiency and user-friendliness
As material handlers of the 6th generation, the SENNEBOGEN G series, the new pick and carry material handlers impress with maximum efficiency in use. This is achieved not only by the increased efficiency of the new 2-circuit hydraulics, but also by the fuel-saving engine technology.

The redesigned Maxcab comfort cab offers outstanding driver comfort and, with its new interior design, meets all requirements for ergonomic and comfortable working. The new SENcon control system, which is based on a completely new technology platform, is at the heart of the cab redesign. It can be operated via a 10-inch touch display and allows quick access to all machine functions. These can be individually configured and saved as part of driver profiles. This makes it possible to personalize the machine to the highest degree for the respective operator or application. The operator is also supported by intelligent assistance and diagnostic systems, ensuring safe and performance-optimized handling of the machine.

The service concept for the machines has also been further optimized and made particularly user-friendly. Clear and simplified access to all maintenance and service points makes regular maintenance work easier. The machines can also be conveniently refueled from the ground.
