BUILDING MATERIALS HANDLING

Wherever there is short-distance movement or transport within the confines of a building project, operators use material handling equipment to load, unload, erect, place and transport various goods in variety from point to multipoint.

There are many types of building materials that we handle, mainly in these 3 types of applications: 

·  Brick/Blocks: Brick Handling Application (Flyash or concrete)

·  Precast/Pre-fab: Heavy-Lift Application

·  Other General Building Materials: Scaffolds, Shuttering plates, Jumbo Bags, Marble Slabs, Piling Cage etc:

 

The Building Materials Handling segment is driven by rising urbanization, resulting in increased demand for residential and commercial buildings, and construction activities required to develop these. PALFINGER knuckle boom cranes offer a versatile, safe and efficient way of handling the building materials these sites, or transporting them from factories to construction sites.

 

HOW CAN WE HELP YOU?

 

 

EQUIPMENT IN ACTION

High stability rotating grab

  • Durable and stable even after years of use
  • Allows for smooth manipulation of load on construction sites
  • Minimal damage during transportation

precise brick stack loading

  • High precision enables tight packing of brick bundles
  • Greater efficiency as loads are packed closer together 
  • Precision reduces damage from load collision

concrete blocks & Other building materials

  • Suitable for concrete blocks and other construction material
  • Different attachments available for different building materials

Features & Options

HPSC (Stability Control System)

The High Performance Stability Control (HPSC) is a fully proportional system for monitoring the stability of the crane vehicle. Sensors for proportional travel measurement in the outriggers allow completely variable outrigger positioning. In this way, the permissible, safe working range can be calculated for any support situation.

Paltronic 50/150

With the PALTRONIC 50 and PALTRONIC 150, PALFINGER offers the latest control electronics for the series production crane. The most important safety and comfort functions include:

  • Overload cut-off
  • Stability control (HPSC)
  • High Power Lifting System (HPLS)
  • Active Oscillation Suppression system (AOS)
  • Dual Power System plus (DPS plus) in the fly jib insert

AOS

The patented PALFINGER "AOS" oscillation suppression system cancels out vibrations and blows that occur during crane operation. Any "post-oscillation" is prevented through rapid braking or load changes. The result is a decisive increase to safety in crane operation for employees, the load and building.

Fly-Jib System

A fly-jib system extends the working range of the crane and thereby increases the possible areas of application. The same crane can be used with or without the fly jib and can therefore be adapted for different applications. Applications with additional attachments (grabber, rotator) and/or cable winch are possible.

  DPS-Plus

Maximizing lifting power of the fly-jib available when crane’s extension booms are not fully extended.

 

  Inner hoses (TEC - Series)

Hoses are routed inside the extention boom system, preventing any accidental damage from entangled tree branches during the cutting and loading process.

 

 

  Additional hoses

On extension booms, the hoses enable additional functionality on equipment attached . (e.g. rotary grabs)

Additional hose equipment on Fly -Jib  enables the use of further equipments attached (e.g. grapple saw, workman basket)

 

  IMPRoVED SAFETY

Slewing limitations to ensure safety while working on roads
