Innovative solutions for the Magni telescopic handlers
Cabs without a control panel, an intelligent stabilizing system and the quick and safe fit of accessories to the boom head are only a few of the technologies Magni Telescopic Handlers is bringing out with the debut of the RTH handlers range
The RTH is a line of seven models of rotating telescopic handlers built with the most advanced technologies to become the crown jewels of Magni Telescopic Handlers headquartered in Castelfranco Emilia, near Modena. Though the enterprise was established only in 2013 Magni can count on the competence and inventiveness of Riccardo Magni and his thirty years of experience in material handling in partnership with the Manitou Group. The end of this joint venture with the French group in 2009 marked the conclusion of a phase of professional experience for the Magni founders but not for Riccardo Magni's work as an entrepreneur. He expanded the company to an enormous business and personally registered over forty national and international patents, all for rotating and non-rotating telehandlers for which he is the designated inventor. With his sons, Riccardo Magni created Magni Telescopic Handlers as a dynamic manufacturer based on research and innovation. As for the other ranges developed in the Castelfranco Emilia plant, the big HTH heavy duty forklifts for work on rough terrain and other special machines, the RTH fully reflects the high technology and construction architecture of Riccardo Magni's vision.
The control panel has disappeared from the cab
Settling into the drivers seat of an RTH model, one of the first striking features is an extensive glass surface in the place of a control panel. Below is the movable steering column allowing the operator to climb in and out and settle comfortably in the seat. The controls are grouped on a glass touch screen with a layout of graphics created in collaboration with a team of designers specialized in this type of interface and experts in software applications in a company in the Magni group. The concept behind designing the new controls was for allowing the operator to control all the movements of the turret, boom and accessory with the touch screen or two Sauer Danfoss multifunction joysticks. The cab itself, with FOPS/ROPS type approval, is fully enclosed and airtight, pressurized by a powerful ventilation system (240 m3/hr) in accordance with ISO 10263 standards.
High-tech stabilizing and quick-fit for accessories
Equally innovative is the system for stabilizing these telescopic handlers, patented by Magni. Combining pivoting and telescoping provides greater stability and superior lifting performance over conventional stabilizing systems. Moreover, the software developed by Magni controls an active dynamic stabilizing system based on the extension length measurement of each outrigger. When the machine is not equally stabilized on its four feet, the system, which is available on all models of the RTH range, constantly calculates the bearing capacity and adapts the load chart of the machine to its real situation of stability. Yet another outstanding, and patented, technology applied to the RTH range is the quick-fit system, significant lighter in weight than conventional arrangements, resulting in improved performance capacity thanks to less weight at the end of the boom and also increased safety when particularly sensitive attachments like long jibs or baskets are fitted. In fact, even if the operator forgets to lock the accessory with a mechanical retainer or hydraulic locking system here again, and thanks to a special design, it is impossible to separate the implement from the machine when lifted, consider the case of aerial work platforms, because even without the safety bolt the system provides a 100% guarantee that the implement cannot be released unless it is on the ground.
Great lifting capacity and lift height
The RTH telescopic handlers are powered either by JCB Ecomax Tier 4i engines or Daimler Mercedes Benz Euro 3B engines for the seven models, the 4.18, 5.18, 5.21, 5.23, 5.26, 5.30 and the 6.24 providing lift heights of between 17.50 meters and lift capacity of 4 tons for the 4.18 up to the height of 23.55 meters and 6.24 tons for the 6.24.J.
