Italian company 4846 CTE is introducing two new models belonging to its new telescopic truck-mounted platform range, CTE B-LIFT.

The company says of the world premieres that the name of the range shows a change of model designation to mark the changes made to the entire range, and the use of high-performance SSAB Strenx steel helps to reduce thickness and the weight of the boom. Changes have also been made to the electrical and hydraulic systems with the introduction of a CAN BUS management system and a new hydraulic management system.

CTE says its aim is to unify hydraulic, electrical and electronic components of truck-mounted platforms CTE ZED and CTE B-LIFT.

Belonging to the new telescopic range, there is the new CTE B-LIFT 17E which reaches 16.6m of working height, 11.3m of outreach, and has a 250kg maximum capacity.

The new CTE B-LIFT 27, a telescopic truck-mounted platform, reaches 27m. Maximum outreach is 13m (80kg capacity) and a maximum capacity of 230kg.
