Sennebogen 830 E Aids Selective Deconstruction of a German Car Dealership
Published: 27/9
Rebuilding and modernizing large multi-brand car dealership in Germany required gutting and demolition of the front part of the building to make room for the dealership’s new variety of brands. To accomplish this delicate job, contractor Metz Erdbau chose the Sennebogen 830 E material handler for the work.
The 830 E was the perfect tool for the project’s location in the middle of a residential area. The two-piece equipment enables precise work at lofty heights, while the quick coupler allows attachments and grabs to be changed individually, depending on the work application. The sorting grab, which can be easily and conveniently coupled from the cab at the push of a button, can be used in between to tidy up the job site and pre-sort the demolition debris for recycling. That means a variety of tasks can be completed with just one machine, saving time and costs. As the machine operator for the job says that with the sensitivity of 830 E, “it feels like the machine grab is my hand, able to grip the individual materials directly with my fingers.”
Saftety first: The overriding motto on a demolition site
The elevating and 30-degree tilting cab of the Sennebogen 830 E provides a perfect view of the upper building elements. This allows the heavy concrete walls of the top floor to be cut through with the demolition shears almost at eye level so that they do not thunder to the ground in their entirety. The heavy work at the height of the top floor requires the highest level of safety for the machinery and the team.
And because a demolition excavator handling heavy work at high reach needs a large stand width, the 830 E’s telescopic crawler tracks can create a base of more than 14.7 ft (4.5m). The Sennebogen machine’s service points are clearly arranged. Specially developed lubricants SENlube and SENprotect perfectly matched to the machines help reduce fuel and maintenance costs and prevent wear.
