Schwing Stetter’s S47 SX III truck-mounted concrete pump comes with a 5-section boom package with roll-folding and is engineered to offer a vertical reach of 46.10 metres.

The company says the 12 metre long machine meets the challenge of increasingly scarce space available on construction sites with an installation area achieved by small support distances of 8.90 m in the front and 9.60 m at the rear.

S47 SX III’s boom package is more flexible through the fully usable opening angles on the boom elements 4 and 5.

The pump features only standard pipe bends with large radii to increase safety during pumping while minimising the risk of blockages caused by pipe radii that are too narrow.

Additionally, the pump is built on a 4-axle chassis and comes with an unladen weight of over 31 tonnes.

Assistance systems such as ‘Active’ for boom dumping and ‘Diractive’ are available to increase the ease of use. The hydraulic system’s individual control valves of the control block and safety valves are mounted on the hydraulic cylinders, allowing the signals of the Vector control to be converted into movement without delay at the hydraulic cylinder.
