New small bridge inspection from Moog

The new crawler version of Moog’s MBI 50 unit has been designed especially for operation on narrow pedestrian bridges. With the load distribution on two crawlers it is possible to stick to a minimum area load even though the overall width is 1.6m and the weight 3,000kg. This makes it possible to work on bridges that are rated low-weight only.

Moog’s MB1 50 designed for operation on small bridges
The new crawler version of 724 MOOG’s MBI 50 unit has been designed especially for operation on narrow pedestrian bridges.

With the load distribution on two crawlers it is possible to stick to a minimum area load even though the overall width is 1.6m and the weight 3,000kg. This makes it possible to work on bridges that are rated low-weight only.

The assembly is fast and uncomplicated requiring one person and a few minutes of time to complete.

The system has two versions of assembly – standard and an option where the platform can be rotated 90 degrees downward before the tower is buckled in sideways. Using this version the unit can be deployed on very small bridges or between aerial lines. The 5m platform has a load capacity of 300kg, making the unit suitable for inspection work as well as smaller repair work.

    Mecalac is expanding its telescopic handler offering with the introduction of a line of four-wheel steer telescopic machines. The AT series will initially consist of two machines the AT900 and the AT1050, both using what Mecalac calls Z plus kinematics to provide strong breakout forces with a parallel lift. The AT900 weighs 6,554kg and can be used with 0.9-1.5m3 capacity buckets. The larger AT1050 has been designed to work with 1.05-1.6m3 buckets and offers slightly high breakout forces and dump height.
