Peri is introducing an innovative new formwork system that is easier to assemble than before. Highly adaptable, the firm’s formwork solution can be used in a wide range of applications, while also featuring fewer components.
Versatility is a key feature of Komatsu’s highly adaptable PW148-10 wheeled excavator. This new short tail machine is suited to use on job sites with limited space, such as in towns and cities or on narrow roads with heavy traffic.
Power comes from a Komatsu SAA4D107E-2 engine that is emissions compliant for use in Europe, highly fuel efficient and delivers 90kW, an increase in output over the earlier model. The operating weight of the machine ranges from 13.7-15.6tonnes depending on the specification.

Liebherr is working together with Teufelberger to develop a high-strength fibre rope for use with cranes. This innovative rope will be suitable for use in tower cranes, mobile cranes and crawler cranes and Liebherr is carrying out field tests at present on a number of different cranes. Austrian firm Teufelberger is a leader in the field of crane ropes. This project is being carried out jointly between Liebherr engineers from various divisions, as well as Teufelberger.
