AB Line

Mounted on standard trucks in the road version and on railcars and wagons in the railway version, the “AB” units guarantee versatility of use and they enable access to structures located both under bridge and overhead.
The bucket, large enough to accommodate 3 persons with tools, is made of aluminum alloy or fiberglass and it can reach overhead, depending on the machine model, a variable working height from 10 to 22.5 m. A triple leveling system enables to operate with bucket floor perfectly horizontal in any work condition.
The bucket can be used for inspection of bridge piers and road embankments as well, thanks to the huge downwards reach of the booms which is comprised, depending on the model, between 10 and 25.5 m. The horizontal reach of the bucket under bridge varies, depending on the model, from 5 to 22 m. Two control stations are provided, one in the bucket and one by the rotating turret. The equipment is hydraulic operated and all maneuvers are governed by means of electric and electronic devices.
Personnel on board the bucket can control the low speed hydraulic traversing maneuver of the unit in forward and reverse with the consent of the driver in the cab, which is made possible for whatever position of the booms.
