In woodworking, every square foot matters 鈥� and so does every load. Whether you鈥檙e storing full-length panels, stacking doors, or feeding machines with oversized parts, your material handling equipment must be as reliable as your craftsmanship. At AWFS 2025 in Las Vegas, HUBTEX North America will showcase electric, multidirectional sideloaders designed to enhance shop flow, reduce emissions, and address the specific handling challenges of woodworking operations.
On Display: MAXX 30 and FLUX 30
At Booth 2479, HUBTEX will showcase two of its most versatile electric models for woodshops and manufacturers.
- MAXX 30: A multidirectional sideloader designed to navigate confined production spaces while safely transporting long or bulky materials like panels, moldings, or fabricated parts. Compact yet powerful, it helps optimize storage and maintain material flow.
- FLUX 30: A hybrid of a sideloader and a counterbalanced forklift. It can switch between moving pallets and longer loads without changing machines 鈥� ideal for shops working with mixed materials, such as lumber packs, sheet goods, and framed assemblies.
Both trucks operate quietly and cleanly, thanks to their electric drive systems, which help shops reduce energy costs and improve air quality while maintaining productivity both indoors and outdoors.
Newest in the Lineup: The MAXX 50
Although not displayed at the show, the newly released MAXX 50 is the latest addition to the HUBTEX MAXX-Series. With an 11,000 lbs load capacity, reinforced drive components, and increased ground clearance, it is designed for shops that routinely handle larger and heavier loads. From solid wood slabs to stacked finished goods, the MAXX 50 provides power and precision, without the drawbacks of diesel or gas trucks.
