More Brontos for Boom Logistics

Australian crane and aerial lift rental company Boom Logistics has taken delivery of three new Bronto truck mounted work platforms with a further five on order for delivery over the next few months.

The units included two 56 metre S56XR and a 70 metre S70XR. The company has also ordered five more new Bronto platforms to be delivered in the spring - three more S56XR’s and two S70XRs.

The S56XRs are mounted on a Scania P 410 four axle 8×8 chassis and are loaded with optional equipment such as radio remote controls, hydraulically extendable 600kg work platforms, a detachable 200kg platform mounted winch, a hydraulically driven superstructure mounted generator and an emergency back-up system on the deck.

The S70XR is also mounted on a Scania P 410 all-wheel drive chassis and is equipped with a similar range of options including a 400kg capacity winch and 440 degree platform rotation.

All three units are also equipped with a full superstructure control station that enables safe and easy operation of the boom and platform from the ground. The heavier four axle Australian compliant chassis also allows the units to achieve more outreach than the standard European models.
