Merlo’s new monitoring system is designed to stop telescopic boom equipment from tipping over sideways. The system has won one of the show’s top awards for new thinking and is designed to stop lateral overturns to the side of the machine.
Merlo has developed a visual display which looks down on the machine from above in real time, showing how the centre of gravity constantly moves about inside a defined triangular-shaped envelope displayed on an in-cab screen. The monitor evaluates the overall stability of

Emerging markets, such as North and East Africa, are developing an appetite for materials testing equipment, but suppliers need to provide expertise and training as well as a broad range of machines, as Kristina Smith finds out
Asking what sort of testing equipment is required for Africa is a little bit like asking what sort of food Europeans like to eat. The answer is that requirements vary enormously from the most basic and ancient of tests to the very cutting edge of dynamic testing.
