CTE adds to truck-mount range

CTE has unveiled the ZED 20.2 - its new articulated truck-mounted platform with a loading capacity of up to 300kg and 20m working height. Said to represent the evolution of ZED 20C, the ZED 20.2 platform is aimed at meeting the increasing demand of the European market to provide machines with capacities increased on license B for greater versatility of use. The platform has an improved hydraulic rotation lock and ring rotation up to 340°. The ZED 20.2 is also said by CTE to have the same compactness as the

4846 CTE has unveiled the ZED 20.2 - its new articulated truck-mounted platform with a loading capacity of up to 300kg and 20m working height.

Said to represent the evolution of ZED 20C, the ZED 20.2 platform is aimed at meeting the increasing demand of the European market to provide machines with capacities increased on license B for greater versatility of use.

The platform has an improved hydraulic rotation lock and ring rotation up to 340°. The ZED 20.2 is also said by CTE to have the same compactness as the ZED 20C and ZED 20 CH platforms, with a stowed height of just 2.5m.

Meanwhile, patented H stabilisation with connecting rods is said to guarantee the release of the beam, and consequently the stabiliser, in one movement, without the aid of screw jacks and of cylinders. When working with the platform near a pavement, you can stabilise the platform with two stabilisers on the pavement and two on the street. The ‘A’ shape H stabilisation system reduces the usual 220mm difference in level between the pavement and street to just 120mm.

The ZED 20.2 has, according to CTE, a new ergonomic protection panel in the basket to ensure better visibility and ease of use. The platform’s controls are positioned tilted towards the operator and repaired by a new hinged lid.

    The improvements to articulated dump trucks (ADTs) have been substantial in recent years. Comparing a present day machine with one from 20 or even just 10 years ago shows how far design has come. Major improvements have been made in visibility, operator comfort levels, rough terrain performance, driveline efficiency and productivity, to name but a few key areas. All of the latest generation ADTs available on the world market now come with Tier 3/Stage IIIA compliant diesels that produce far lower noise and

    The market for concrete pavers continues to fuel research and development into new models writes Mike Woof. The range and breadth of concrete slipforming and paving equipment on the market continues to grow as firms develop new and improved models. Prior to the recent CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2011 construction equipment show in Las Vegas, some of the best known manufacturers had already announced their new and improved slipforming machines. GOMACO, Guntert & Zimmermann, Power Curbers and Wirtgen all had recent or ne
