Scheuerle expands PowerHoss series

摘要

Scheuerle has extended its SPMT PowerHoss series by adding a six-axle unit with a 364-ton payload. The 10-foot-wide self-propelled transport modules can also be used in a vehicle combination. The width allows them to offer up to 40 percent more stability than competing products, the German manufacturer said.Previous SPMT PowerHoss modules have had two or four axles. Their payloads are 94 and 193-tons per module, respectively. Its built-in PPU drive unit (power pack unit) means it is ready to go with minimal set up.Individual PowerHoss modules can be connected and operated in a simple plug-and-play manner, Scheuerie said. This can be either connected mechanically or electronically in a loose coupling mode or coupled together laterally or longitudinally. Combining four SPMT PowerHoss 330s will move loads up to 1,455 tons.
