Manufacturing expansion at E-ONE targets faster aerial truck delivery

E-ONE expands Ocala aerial production

E-ONE has announced a $23.5 million investment in its manufacturing facility in Ocala, Florida, to expand aerial production capacity by 35 percent.

The Terex Corporation-owned company announced the project on 17 March 2026 and said it is intended to reduce lead times for fire departments ordering ladder trucks and aerial firefighting platforms.

Fire departments across North America are facing increasing demand for modern ladder trucks and aerial firefighting platforms for urban and suburban emergency response.

The expansion is expected to increase manufacturing efficiency across the Ocala campus.

Facility work and planned next steps

E-ONE said the project will include expansion of its existing assembly, fabrication and paint facilities, alongside new construction for ladder manufacturing and assembly operations.

Paint operations will double in size to increase throughput and improve quality.

A dedicated ladder manufacturing facility is planned to address current production constraints and support further capacity expansion.

A new facility for aerial body assembly and completion is also planned to increase assembly capability and line rate output within the aerial complex.

Construction of a second test pit at the Ocala campus is intended to remove a single point of failure and improve product flow across all E-ONE product lines.

Mike Virnig, President, Specialty Vehicles segment at Terex Corporation, said: “This investment reflects E-ONE’s unwavering commitment to the firefighting industry.

“Every day of reduced delivery time means people and property are better protected, and that drives our continuous improvement in manufacturing excellence.”

A groundbreaking ceremony is due to be held at E-ONE’s Ocala facility in the next couple of months, with state and local legislators, local fire chiefs, E-ONE fire apparatus dealers and community leaders expected to attend.

E-ONE introduces new 2020 CYCLONE® cab with voice recognition

E-ONE, a subsidiary of REV Group, has introduced the 2020 Cyclone® cab following feedback from firefighters, which features significant updates and refinements, including more interior space, greater visibility and easier access.

The new 100” wide cab provides more interior space, including a 4” raised roof for more headroom and a generous 27 inches between door and engine cover for both driver and officer.

The Cyclone cab provides excellent visibility for driver and crew with its low-profile dash, one-piece door glass, and a reduced profile interior A/C system.

The new rugged dash, constructed from heavy-duty cast aluminum, features a redesigned centre console area. It is available in both a low profile and a raised design for mounting of sirens, radios, and other electronic equipment. The officer’s side also has a very low-profile designed to provide additional legroom.

Other critical features of this new cab design include:

  • New vertical pull handles on cab doors along with extended lower and full-width intermediate steps
  • High-capacity air conditioning system, closer to the ceiling for greater visibility, with eight vents in rear and six in front.
  • LED strip lights configured as daytime running lights or turn signals, allowing for additional forward warning lights.

“We’re very excited about this new Cyclone cab. The increased interior space, combined with its rugged construction, and classic styling make the Cyclone cab a perfect choice for fire departments adding to their fleets,” said Joseph Belle, E-ONE Vice President, and General Manager.
