The reliable pick and carry timber handlers from SENNEBOGEN have been proving themselves in demanding practical use for decades. Now, not only has the 723 E been relaunched in the new, 6th machine generation as the 724 G, but the product range has also been supplemented by the slightly larger 726 G. With an operating weight of 31 t, this closes the existing gap to the 34-tonne 730 E.
Proven pick and carry concept transferred: safe and efficient
With a stacking height of up to 9 m and load capacities of up to 3.7 t at 10.5 m radius for the 724 G and 4.6 t for the 726 G, the new mobile material handlers can not only stack high, but can also reload and sort quickly and safely. In direct comparison to wheel loaders and high-lifter solutions, the proven SENNEBOGEN pick and carry concept, which has now been used for the first time in this machine size, not only ensures even more safety in the log yard, but also enables optimum use of the available space thanks to its high maneuverability. The pick and carry machine concept means that the boom linkage is positioned behind the center of the machine. This ensures that the center of gravity of the material handler is close to the center of the slewing ring. The weight of the machines is ideally distributed and a small rear ballast is sufficient to compensate, making the machine more compact and maneuverable. This allows fast handling in narrow pile aisles and shorter travel distances without time-consuming maneuvering – for efficient processes in the sawmill.
Added to this is the resulting increase in safety, which is not only due to the elimination of complex maneuvering, but above all due to the clear view from the cab. This is because the rear-hinged boom arm gives the driver a clear view to all sides. The rigid cab elevation also ensures optimum visibility from the cab – even when working on high piles and when unloading trucks.
