PM Group S.p.A. participates to the SAIE 2008, presenting lot of new products

High performances, maximum flexibility and a wide range of accessories to be chosen. These are the guidelines that PM (1st Italian manufacturer of Hydraulic Cranes for Trucks) of PM Group will follow during SAIE 2008 (held in Bologna from 15th until 18th of October 2008), announcing new models of cranes in the 14 - 17.5 TM range. This exhibition has always represented one of the Top Event for the whole PM Group and at their Booth (Outside Area 44 - Booth F36/G31), you will be able to find as well the novelties on Oil&Steel production.

PM will present at SAIE 2008 a new crane series with double linkage, PM 15S and PM 16,5SP. These have been developed in order to satisfy the market needs, for what performances and different configurations available are concerned, allowing PM to compete with the major worldwide producers. The new models feature a wide range of accessories and the application of the Electronic Moment Control Device (PT Compact o PowerTronic CAN BUS), solutions granting an improved performance. The new PM Cranes have been studied in order to reduce as well the installation issues, as they include the stabilizers cylinders to be tilting in axis. Аll the models are built following the European Regulations EN 12999, including safety devices for the design, verification and testing of hydraulic cranes.

From the structural side, the models PM 15S and PM 16,5SP show up for the great care placed on the protection. Besides having ABS carters, the hydraulic pipes have been placed inside the column, in order to minimize damages of the most common kind. The tilting in axis stabilizers are controlled by a lever valve block and they are available in manual or hydraulic version, with 3 different span sizes, in order to grant stability in any kind of application. Other features of these new models PM 15S and PM 16,5P: regenerative circuit on the boom extension , the boom group able to make an extra movement of 15° above the horizontal , the 405° slewing and the digital hourmeter (device important to have it in the renting sector). Peculiar care has been given in order to respect the environment: the working pressure of 295 bar allows to reduce the fuel consumption at equal performances and efficiency. The best granted coupling on Euro 5 and Euro 6 vehicles allows moreover to keep emissions low. Generally speaking all PM cranes are painted with very low impact environmental water soluble paints. The new models PM 15S and PM 16,5SP developed by PM are available until a maximum of 6 hydraulic extensions on the crane base and with jib configuration in versions 4+4 or 5+2, for a maximum total hydraulic outreach of 23 meters. Another innovation is the introduction of the new proportional valve block D4000, which will be offered as an alternative to PVG32, in order to supply a competitive remote control system also on the entry level models.
