HYVA is presenting a skiploader at the bauma 2019 trade fair in Munich. The automatic covering of the load not only ensures greater work safety for the driver, it basically pays for itself through greater efficiency.
HYVA produces cranes and skiploaders. What are the innovations at bauma 2019? At first glance, it looks like a skiploader with a sunroof. Of course, it's not. The detachable system is used to secure the load. This immediately seems logical, but is still very new for Germany.
The development is already being sold in very large numbers in the UK, where health and safety conditions are much stricter. Ultimately, the system is designed to prevent drivers from injuring themselves by climbing onto a container to secure the load. But work safety is not the only aspect - it is also about working speed. With the automatic system, which can be operated with a radio remote control, the containers can be covered much faster. This means that with around 10-12 trips a day, the system works so efficiently that you can drive one more container a day. The additional costs for this system are therefore amortized very quickly. Money saved and additional safety on top of that - that sounds good.
