MBI 70-1/S to Norway
Mid September 2016 the final acceptance and training on a brand new MBI 70-1/S under-bridge unit took place at MOOG’s Germany facilities. The customer was the company Drammen Lift Utleie AS from Norway, who already owns a MBI 180-1,4/S. They now have added a second MOOG under-bridge unit to its vehicle fleet.
The MBI 70-1/S was mounted on an IVECO chassis and has a horizontal range under the bridge of up to 7,0 m. If the additional platform extension is used the horizontal range can be extended up to 8.0 m.
According to the customer’s request the under-bridge unit was also equipped with the special erection function (excavator erection) which enables erection of the unit between e.g.catenaries in railway areas or on truss bridges. The included scaffolding can be set up on the platform and thus enables access to e.g. box girders. The additionally installed night lighting enables safe operation of the machine even low light and dark periods.
Having a both small and a big MOOG under-bridge access unit in its vehicle fleet ensure many different fields of application for this Norwegian customer.
