EPSILON cranes for cable yarding and timber transport - S280L94 und M12Z
Extensive load measurements carried out at the University of Leoben resulted in the technical specification for the PALFINGER EPSILON S280L94 – a log crane with a net slewing torque of around 50 kNm (gross 58.7 kNm). The crane also has a reach of 9.4 m and a lifting moment of 229 kNm at a working pressure of 250 bar. At its maximum outreach, a total weight of 2,353 kg can be hung from the crane boom tip, which will leave enough remaining lifting power for manoeuvring larger pieces of timber once the unit weight has been deducted. Because working with the cables results in extremely high forces, on the base of the crane in particular, the base was completely overhauled for Mayr-Melnhof and adapted to their special requirements. In addition to a general optimisation of the steel components and the use of the latest welding processes, the slewing cylinders were also specially adapted to the high torques. In order to ensure consistently high quality and a long service durability, the cylinders, like an average of 80 percent of all steel components in every crane, are produced by PALFINGER itself.
