While the trend on the market tends to be “go big or go home”, the Finland-based material handling machine manufacturer Mantsinen Group Ltd Oy swims against the current. Mantsinen launched the world’s largest material handling machine Mantsinen 300 already two years ago and paved the way for evolution on the market. Mantsinen is well known for “from bigger to smaller” approach for their large-scale large-capacity machines and Mantsinen 60 will forge ahead the approach by setting new lifetime expectancy for material handling machines in 60-70 t category.

„We have an outstanding offering for large-capacity machines, and now we are aiming to offer our clients something more targeted and tailored for especially round-wood and scrap handling”, said Tapio Pirinen, Vice President for Mantsinen Material Handling Machinery. „Indeed, nowadays more is not necessarily more in material handling, but the key factor seems to be the combination of optimal features for the task at hand and long life expectancy for the machine. The Mantsinen 60 carries all the operation-proven Mantsinen qualities in a condensed package. Combining agility, intelligence, and strength, the Mantsinen 60 also comes equipped with the Mantsinen Telematics Systems (MTS) as standard, and it is optimized for mid-scale material handling. We want to offer operation-specific solutions for our customers”, Mr. Pirinen describes.

Mantsinen 60 comes equipped with Volvo Penta diesel engine, and it has a maximum stick end reach of 20,5 meters with a typical lifting capacity range of 6 to 9 tons. A combination of either rubber tire or track undercarriage and a wide selection of original Mantsinen attachments is ideal for optimizing your material handling operation.

For Mantsinen the main advantage compared to their competitors is the strong experience in hands-on material handling. That gives the company a head start in both machine and attachment R&D and consulting sales. „It can’t be denied, that an industry-specific practical know-how is a great asset in our line of business. For example, when it comes to round-wood, through our own Logistics Services – business unit, the company possess in-house experience of handling over 500 000 000m3 over the years which creates an unbeatable foundation to our proposals. We know exactly which specific demands and challenges our clients face, and we can offer solutions to their challenges”, Tapio Pirinen concludes.
