Magni TH 6.20 builds new railway bridges in Buenos Aires
The TH range is the ideal solution on any construction site in terms of performance, versatility and compactness. This is why CONSTRUCCIONES OMI SA chose Magni as its lifting partner. The objective of the project is building several railway bridges in the west of Buenos Aires.
Trenes Argentinos S.E., a state-owned company which ensures the operation and maintenance of Argentina’s railway network, decided to carry out a major project: the construction of modular bridges on 44 railway stations. It is a huge step forward for the area, as it is the first time that such state-of-the-art architectural structures are built in Argentina. In case of need, the bridges can be disassembled and moved without the need to demolish them. This significantly contributes to environmental issues, saving materials and costs.
CONSTRUCCIONES OMI SA took charge of the project, started construction at the beginning of 2022 and plans to finish within 18 months. In order to complete the task, the construction company contacted our local dealer American Vial, which provided a solution in line with their needs and the site’s requirements: the TH 6.20.
This TH fixed telehandler model offers a lifting height of 20 metres and a load capacity of 6 tonnes. The machine is mainly used as a support for larger cranes within the site, delivering concrete and installing the bridges at height.
The TH range of telehandlers for construction is designed to ensure maximum performance in every situation. Standard 4-wheel drive guarantees maximum grip on any kind of ground. The hydrostatic transmission ensures optimal off-road performance. The compact size is ideal for tight working spaces, guaranteeing maximum manoeuvrability in any location.
These features proved essential on CONSTRUCCIONES OMI SA’s job sites. The company needed a machine capable of operating on muddy field in tight spaces, as the railway passes alongside one of the busiest roads in Buenos Aires.
Magni’s fixed telehandler range combines craftsmanship with innovation and technology, to offer high-end performance in each application. To learn more about all the models and their features, consult the TH range catalogue and the product section of our website.
