The firm is offering a new range of truck-mounted pumps with booms in the 20m segment, a new K31L truck-mounted pump with a 31m boom and a new shotcrete pump for underground operations called the Wombat. In addition, the firm is offering new options and features for machine control and operator safety.

The Wombat has been designed to offer high performance in applications such as tunnelling, while meeting the latest requirements for safety. Sophisticated controls are said to optimise working, productivity and quality.
