RSSItalian company, 7067 Barin Italy which designs and constructs access equipment of various types and complexity, has developed a new state-of-the-art aerial work platform.

Designed for checking and maintenance of road galleries and overlaps, the ATC 850 can be mounted on a truck with a total load of 12tonnes, and is able to reach working heights up to 5-10m (measured from the road surface).
