MBI 110-1,2/S to South Korea
An under-bridge unit model MBI 110-1,2/S with some special features was shipped to South Korea in February 2016.
The platform unit was mounted on a MAN chassis and has a horizontal working range of 36 ft. 1 in. under the bridge, which can be extended by a platform extension giving it up to 42 ft. 8 in. of working range. For better access to the box girders a scaffold with a 5 ft. 7 in. of standing height was also delivered.
The machine was also equipped with a telescopic rotation frame which enables a wider sidewalk clearance of up to 10 ft. 10 in. The special feature: Per the customer’s request the steel ring which enables a wider crossing over of sound barriers was not installed. This steel ring is a standard feature for this unit model, but the customer decided that a wider crossing over of sound barriers was not necessary for operational purposes in South Korea. His decision led MOOG to extend the lowering depth to a maximum of up to 24 ft. 7 in.
MOOG again demonstrates that their under-bridge units are designed and manufactured according to the customers’ wishes and country specific conditions. As the South Korean customer was happy with the first unit, he ordered two more units for their equipment fleet.
