MSG 285 suspension can be fitted to the S 700 seat

8408 Grammer has introduced the MS 285 suspension for cab seats to offer more comfort to operators of excavators, wheel loaders, rollers and backhoes. The company took a high strength mechanical scissors-type suspension and added improved height and weight adjustment as well as a fore/aft isolator.

The MSG 285 can be combined with Grammer's S 700 range of upper seats, which include interfaces for the control carriers that are fitted to most modern construction machines. An easy to use combined weight and height adjustment mechanism is included that allows the seat to be set for weights from 50 to 150 kg.

Grammer also exhibited its new Dualmotion back support system at bauma 2016. The upper backrest section automatically adapts to the driver's position when twisting round to face the rear, providing optimal support.

Grammer is also a member of the CAB Concept Cluster – a consortium of designers, manufacturers, academics and others - that has created the Genius Cab prototype. The project aims to demonstrate a construction machinery cab optimised in all dimensions. Grammer has created a newly designed driver seat for the prototype with a number of electrically adjustable comfort features with the ability to store and recall the settings.
