June 1, 2026; Linamar Corporation’s (TSX:LNR) Skyjack division announces the launch of the all-new SJ6940 RTE, taking their electric rough terrain scissor lineup to new heights. With a platform capacity of 363 kg (800 lbs) and a platform height of 12.19 m (40’), this new rough terrain scissor sets a new benchmark as the tallest electric machine in Skyjack’s compact RT scissor class.

Engineered with productivity and jobsite versatility in mind, the SJ6940 RTE delivers the longest working area in the class with a main platform at 3.38 m (11’ 1”) in length. A smart electric drive system and front oscillating axle tackles tough jobsite terrain with superior traction, manoeuvrability, and a 35% gradeability rating. Auto-leveling outriggers (standard on CE models) maximise usability. These features, combined with Skyjack’s renowned durability, make these scissors an ideal solution for indoor and outdoor construction, maintenance, and industrial applications.

“At Skyjack, we pride ourselves on designing for rental and building machines that optimize productivity and sustainability,” said Charlie Patterson, Skyjack President. “The new SJ6940 RTE scissor offers outstanding performance, zero emissions, and an impressive 363 kg (800 lb) capacity to support more people, tools, and materials.”

Skyjack’s new RTE electric scissor lift features high-performance AC electric drive motors and an AC pump motor system optimising torque, power, and speed. Smart 414 ah AGM battery power and universal smart charging technology maximises environmental performance and long-term sustainability.

“The SJ6940 RTE is purpose-built to outperform in rough terrain conditions while delivering a clean, quiet, and sustainable rental solution,” said Mark Trowman, Skyjack’s Product Development Manager. “Our four-level scissor stack, with a single-cylinder design, significantly reduces leak points and simplifies maintenance.
