Mantsinen Introduces New Medium-Sized Crane To Market

While the trend on the market tends to be “go big or go home,” the Finland-based material handling machine manufacturer Mantsinen Group Ltd. Oy swims against the current. Mantsinen launched the world’s largest material handling machine, the Mantsinen 300, two years ago and paved the way for evolution on the market. Mantsinen said that it is well known for its “from bigger to smaller” approach for its large-scale, large-capacity machines.

The new Mantsinen 60 will forge ahead with the approach by setting new lifetime expectancy for material handling machines in the 60- to 70-ton category.

“We have an outstanding offering for large-capacity machines, and now we are aiming to offer our clients something more targeted and tailored for especially round-wood and scrap handling,” said Tapio Pirinen, vice president for Mantsinen.

The company said that its latest medium-sized material handler includes a  combination of optimal features and a long lifetime expectancy. The Mantsinen 60 combines agility, intelligence and strength and comes equipped with the Mantsinen Telematics Systems (MTS) as standard, and it is optimized for mid-scale material handling.

“We want to offer operation-specific solutions for our customers,” Pirinen said.

Mantsinen said its material handler gives its customers a head start in both machine and attachment R&D and consulting sales. “It can’t be denied, that an industry-specific practical know-how is a great asset in our line of business,” Pirinen said. “For example, when it comes to our own logistics services, the company possesses in-house experience of handling over 500 million cubic meters over the years. We know exactly which specific demands and challenges our clients face, and we can offer solutions to their challenges.”
