Meanwhile, Bronto Skylift had two new
prototype truck mounts on its stand.The S 56
XR and S 65 XR have a maximum working
height of 56 m and 65 m, respectively.
The XR models are the start of a new
generation of the existing XDT range. Both
ranges will run parallel to each other until the
new XR range is full, then it will supersede
the XDT range.
Both machines will be available on a 3- and
4-axle chassis and will provide 30% more
outreach volume than previous models, the
company told
AI
. For example the S 56 XR
has an outreach of 37 m and an up-and-over
reach of 15 m. Safe working load is 700 kg.
