With the sun shining, Bauma 2016 opened in Munich and lured
April 11, 2016, it was about time again: for the 32nd time, the largest trade show Bauma opened the gates again for its about 580,000 visitors from all over the world. With a share of 63% the exhibitors were more international than ever before. More than 3,400 exhibitors from 58 countries presented their latest developments and innovations on 605,000 m² exhibition area – inside and outside. For the KINSHOFER Group, Bauma 2016 was also larger than ever: on about 2,000 m² the manufacturer of crane and excavator attachments informed interested parties and professionals about standard products as well as new developments. Especially with the latter KINSHOFER was not reluctant at Bauma 2016! With the sun shining, Bauma 2016 opened in Munich and lured numerous visitors to the open-air fairground of the Neue Messe München. Just as in 2013, the booth of the KINSHOFER Group had not only hosted its subsidiaries Demarec B.V. (The Netherlands) and RF-Systems AB (Sweden), but also the two sisters Brokk (Sweden) and Darda (Germany). And a new subsidiary to the KINSHOFER Group could also be found there – additionally to its own booth in hall B3: the new KINSHOFER subsidiary Auger Torque Europe Ltd. Again, KINSHOFER did not only count on the static presentation of its products, but additionally demonstrated a range of different products mounted onto two carrier machines in the proper demonstration area on the huge booth. Both carrier machines were equipped with the new types of the innovative NOX Tiltrotator – TR14NOX (prototype) and TR19NOX – allowing for different tasks within a very limited space. Excavating and levelling works were performed as well as the rehandling of pallets, the positioning of curb stones and even the installation of screw piles. The demonstration was attended by two presenters, that led the German- and English-speaking audience through the show. Additionally, the spectators could follow the show on a huge outdoor screen. However, it was not only in to watch: interested parties could test the NOX Tiltrotator themselves thanks to the external excavator seat via remote control! The handling of the tiltrotator is so easy, that even little children were able to perform excavating works without any problems. As present as the large demo area was also the latest KINSHOFER product group: a complete series of quick couplers and buckets for excavators. Buckets for different applications from a tiny mini-bucket for 1t-excavators up to general buckets up to 28t could be found there as well as different mechanical and hydraulic quick coupling systems. One new KINSHOFER development here: the fully hydraulic CMX SmartFlow quick coupler! And not only for the excavator range, but finally also for the use on loader cranes! The latter fully hydraulic and fast exchange function could be tested by the visitors themselves on a hydraulic unit, simulating the change between two attachments with shaft rotator on a loader crane. The word spread quickly on the fairground and you could listen to discussions about this innovation at all booths of the large loader crane manufacturers! Another KINSHOFER-newborn is the new, huge re-handling clamshell bucket with the revolutionary HPXdrive! All advantages of the cylinderless and maintenance-free, already proven and widely known HPXdrive-system, used in an attachment for excavators with up to 40t operating weight. Even the shell exchange function remains, thus easily change from shells to e.g. timber tines. And those were just some examples of what could be found at the KINSHOFER booth! As in 2013, there had also been a lottery at the KINSHOFER booth again. This year‘s first prize had been a complete bucket set with quick coupler adapted to the winner‘s excavator, the second prize a complete set of the new KINSHOFER workwear, and the third price a voucher for a relax weekend in hotel at the winner‘s choice. KINSHOFER‘s managing director, Thomas Friedrich, drew the lucky winners‘ tickets at the end of the show after Bauma‘s traditional honking fest! Enough of words now, let the pictures rather speak for themselves, and we hope to welcome you again in 2019 on our next Bauma appearance! The new quick coupler and buckets series for excavators also called the attention of the media A KINSHOFER Group employee explains the new fully hydraulic quick coupling system for loader cranes to a TV-team While our two operators Conny and Kimmo operated the carrier machines and demonstrated their skills, our hosts guided the visitors through the show The demo show at the KINSHOFER booth attracted a lot of attention Part of the demo area from above with the huge screen in the back A control as easy as a "child‘s play": the NOX tiltrotator that was mounted to the larger demo excacavator could be tested by remote control Operator Conny from Sweden was excited, too!
