THA, Magni TH's high-tech telehandlers

Modern agriculture requires reliable, powerful and versatile solutions. For this reason, Magni TH (Telescopic Handlers) of Castelfranco Emilia (Modena) has created the THA range, comprising seven fixed telescopic handlers, with three more models soon to be added. Of these, two have been specifically designed for heavy duty applications, and the third is 100% electric. At EIMA International, the spotlight at the stand of the Emilian manufacturer was on the THA 3.6, THA 4.8, and THA 5.10 telescopic handlers. The first, agile and flexible, has a lifting capacity of up to 3 tons and is suitable for working inside stables, chicken coops and nurseries. It is powered by a Deutz TCD 2.9 L4 Stage V engine producing 55.4 kW (75.3 Hp) at 2,600 rpm and is equipped with a hydrostatic transmission and a 255 hydraulic system (the flow rate is 87 l/min). Its compact structure (4.99 meters long and 1.81 meters wide) and its unladen weight of 5,000 kilos further enhance the maneuverability of the THA 3.6, which also boasts a maximum speed of 35 kilometers per hour. The THA 4.8 has a lifting capacity of 4,000 kg and a maximum height of 7.7 meters and features the power of a 125 kW (170 Hp) FPT N45 Stage V engine. The hydrostatic transmission is accompanied by a 350 bar electronically-controlled load-sensing hydraulic system (165 l/min flow rate). This model – Magni TH states – provides high performance with heavy loads and can move with ease even on the most difficult terrain without ever neglecting the comfort of the operator, who enjoys a suspended cabin. The THA 5.10 is the flagship of the Magni line. It has a lifting height of 10 meters, a reach of 6.2 meters and a maximum capacity of 5,000 kg. The THA 5.10 lift reaches 50 kilometers per hour thanks to its high-performance FPT engine and is suitable for operators who need to cover greater distances on the road and on rough terrain. This model, like the THA 5.8, has the same construction characteristics as the THA 4.8 and the THA 4.10, but stands due to its usage of some high-tech solutions, such as the continuously variable transmission (CVT) for optimal control on any surface, and the hydropneumatic axle suspension, which is extremely effective on uneven terrain. Further innovations include the lateral translation technology of the arm (+/- 4.5°) and the levelling technology of the machine on the horizontal plane (+/- 7°) for greater precision and better stability during lifting and positioning of loads. The hardware and software equipment of the THA telescopic booms is also innovative. The MCTS (Magni Combi Touch System) interface offers advanced features specifically developed for the agricultural sector. Among these, the up-down function to maintain the constant verticality of the tool and the memory position of the arm to quickly recall the preset working height and inclination, making repetitive operations faster. There is also a shake function for the shovel, which allows the tool to be emptied easily, facilitating the detachment of the material during unloading operations.
