Bobcat has collaborated with Magni of Italy, to launch an expanded line of new generation rotary telehandlers for markets in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Russia and the CIS countries.
The new Bobcat rotary telehandler range includes ten Stage V compliant models for the European market, with lifting heights from 18 to 39 m and lifting capacities from 4 to 7 tonne. These are complemented by another four Stage IIIA engine powered models aimed at the Middle East, Africa and Russia/CIS regions with lifting heights from 18 to 25 m and lifting capacities from 4 to 6 tonne.
Olivier Traccucci, Bobcat Telehandler Senior Product Manager, said: “Our new rotary telehandler range offers an expanded model selection and increased lifting heights and lifting capacities. The new range offers cutting-edge technology that continues the theme of reinvention that is at the core of our ‘Next is Now’ philosophy. As a result, they offer enhanced 360° performance to create the ultimate tools for even the most complex site handling jobs. A big choice of over 20 attachments and various options also ensures that working at height has never been so versatile, efficient, comfortable and safe.”
Features of the cab include a fully pressurized environment; 100% air filtration; heating and air conditioning (except TR40.180); large windows; ROPS/FOPS certification; adjustable steering column and fully adjustable seat.
The attachments of the Bobcat rotary telehandlers are usually forks (supplied as standard), crane jibs, winches or jib winches, man platforms and buckets. Most of the new Bobcat rotary telehandlers are equipped with a remote control to operate the machine from the man basket when elevating people as well as operating the machines remotely to enhance visibility and precision at work.
Bobcat offers a choice of additional options including:
• Remote control with drive function. This provides radio control equipped with a screen, that allows the machine to be driven remotely and the stabilization phases to be managed directly from the basket. This results in increased productivity and efficiency in winch, jib and man platform operations (among others).
• The Twin Power allows the machine to be used without starting the diesel engine keeping the emissions on zero level and providing noiseless operation. By connecting the machine to an external electricity supply (380 V), this provides power for the machine, allowing it to perform all normal lifting and load positioning operations. A 15 kW electric motor and a 90 litre/min piston pump guarantee the performance and precision required for each and every movement.
Bobcat rotary telehandlers are named according to the product line [(T)elescopic (R)otary], lift capacity (6.0 tonne) and lift height (25 m). The range for Europe comprises ten models – the TR40.180, TR50.180, TR50.210, TR50.250, TR60.210, TR60.250, TR70.260, TR60.300, TR60.350 and TR60.390 rotary telehandlers. In MEA and Russia/CIS, the Bobcat range comprises the TR40.180, TR50.210, TR60.210 and TR60.250 models.
