SCHWING-Stetter: 8 new innovations

SCHWING Stetter exhibited 16 products, out of which eight were innovations or fundamentally revised machines. It was a proud moment for the Indian arm of Schwing as three 'Made in India' products were displayed at their stand first time at bauma. These were the two trailer-mounted concrete pumps and a self-loading mixer. The company presented the newly developed S 47 SX III from its wide range of truck-mounted concrete pumps, for which numerous orders were received at the trade fair. Orders were also received for the impressive 63 tons S 65 SXF.

The S 36 X DirectDrive, which, with its two DirectDrive motors at the boom, can be used more flexibly than any other machine in its class, attracted a great deal of attention. Due to its DirectDrive hydraulic motor developed by SCHWING, the last boom element can be rotated 360° endlessly.

Stetter also presented the 111,000th truck-mixer with a design to match the anniversary. The Memmingen-based manufacturer of truck-mixers and batching plants with the AM 10 EDrive truck-mixer showed that hybrid technology has long since arrived in the world of construction machinery. During loading and unloading, its mixing drum can be driven either by the vehicle's diesel engine or emission-free by a battery-operated electric motor. The emission load on the construction site and at the batching plant is significantly reduced. Another advantage is that maintenance work, during which the drum has to rotate, can be carried out in workshops and halls without the emission of pollutants.

Another innovation was the mobile batching plant M3.0, which can be set up for operation within 3 days and produce up to 135 m³ of fresh concrete per hour.
