Fussey Piling invests in more Sennebogen machines

02 June 2008

Working all over the UK, Fussey Piling Limited is one of the leading steel sheet piling contractors. Established in 1972 the company has more than 35 years experience serving the construction and building industry.

Having previously invested in two Sennebogen HD 630 telescopic crawler cranes the company has now added a third brand new HD 643R telescopic crawler crane to its impressive plant fleet.

The new Sennebogen HD 643R supersedes the HD 630 and reflects a new dimension in lifting, providing a strong, dynamic swing drive for fast working cycles this compact and efficient telescopic crane can be put to optimum use in very confined work spaces – whether on construction site, in tunnelling, on tight inner city job sites or industrial premises.

With a full powered, hydraulically extendable 4-section telescopic main boom length of 30 metres it features a folding type fly jib of 6.5 -13 metres.

Weighing in at 42.5 tonnes the machine incorporates a rear counterweight of 7 tonnes, plus an additional carbody weight of 4 tonnes. This has been specified over the standard counterweight of 5 tonnes providing an improved duty table.

Finally, the 643R is powered by a 135 kW Deutz engine, with the operator residing in the latest MAXI type operators cabin.

Currently working on various UK projects the new 643R is pulling its weight for Fussey Piling.

Graham Hall, Contracts Director, commented, “This crane is a real asset to our operation. Working exclusively with our Stillworker ‘silent and vibration free’ pile driving machines the speed of set up is something to be seen. Being just 3.0m wide and less than 10.m for transportation it can be employed almost anywhere within minutes of arriving on site. Sennebogen was certainly our first choice when adding to our fleet.”
