Mercedes-Benz Actros 4144 - Birsner
Birsner from Singen (DE) is owning next to their transportcompany a fleet with concrete pumps. Also two Mercedes-Benz Actros 4144 with a Putzmeister M 46-5 concrete pump.
The truck weights 41 tonnes and has a 440 hp engine. Remarkable on the pump construction of Putzmeister is, that the boom doesn't overpass the cabin.
The full outrigger base of the pump is 8.9 x 8.7 meters. The base is so big because the concrute pump gets his stability from his outriggers because no counterweight is used.
The rear outriggers are folded outwards, the front outriggers are extendable. The delivered concrete is always suplied in the box at the rear.
The reach of the concrete pump is 45 meters vertical and 41 meters horizontal.
A nice truck.
