Against the backdrop of its WOW communications campaign at 688 Bauma, seen on 20 free-to-travel rickshaws and at entrances, the company said it is “reconfirming its positioning among the major players in the off-highway tyre market”.

BKT product lines are now extended by new sizes and, among products it highlights, is the Earthmax, a tyre with an all-steel structure designed for dumpers and wheeled loaders to ensure optimum load distribution on the terrain. Tread sizes include for the SR 40, 29.5 R 25 and for the SR 45, 18.00 R 33.

Also new is the new Airomax AM 27 (size 445/95 R 25) for on/off-the-road high-speed crane applications and the solid-tyre Maglift (7.00-12) for forklifts.

BKT also highlights its Loader Special (L5) tyre in the size 35/65-33 and its new Container King 18.00-25, specially designed for handling heavy loads.

“By means of this extraordinary sponsorship, BKT highlights its presence by physically conveying the distinctive messages of the communication campaign from one hall to another, in baked earth colours for the industrial and OTR sectors,” said BKT.

  • ZF looks to combine hybrid module with cPower CVT transmission
    January 6, 2017
    ZF used bauma 2013 to show the next stage of development for its cPower continuously variable transmission (CVT). By combining the transmission with a hybrid module, ZF said greater operating efficiencies were available from the integration of start/stop technology and energy recovery from regenerative braking. Potentially, the hybrid drive system has the ability to boost fuel efficiency by up to 25% in addition to the 20% higher operating efficiency already offered by the cPower transmission, said ZF.
