New 40m from Ruthmann

German truck mounted lift manufacturer Ruthmann has announced plans for a 40 metre T400 truck mounted lift.

The T400, scheduled to be unveiled this summer, will fit between the company’s 38 metre T380 and 46 metre T460. Although details are sparse we do know it will be mounted on a two axle chassis and that it will offer an outreach of up to 31 metres. It will also include the same technical features as the other models in the height performance range.

The company said: “Work platforms in the 40 metre working height range are gaining in popularity with rental companies because mobile telecommunication providers are expanding their LTE transmission networks. These networks will eventually need to be maintained and serviced and in order to reach the majority of LTE towers with the greatest degree of efficiency, mobile network operators often choose truck mounted work platforms with a working height of 40 metres.”
