Sennebogen Improves Productivity 100% +
Metalcorp NZ, located in Christchurch haven taken delivery of a new Sennebogen 825M D series materials handling machine complete with;
13 metre reach
Hydraulic elevating cabin
Factory fitted Genset
Factory supplied Magnet
SMAG 0.6m 360 degree rotating orange peel grab

One of the [many] key factors in Metalcorp purchasing the machine from Pacific Materials Handling was the ability to purchase the complete machine & attachments from Pacific Materials Handling and have the machine commissioned and operating within 1 hour of delivery on site.

This machine is serial number #13 and the superstitious might have wondered if it was ever meant to be given the headaches and stress surrounding getting the machine to New Zealand. First the shipping vessel
the machine was on board was delayed in Europe by 2 weeks due to severe storms then the same vessel was delayed further again off the coast of NSW with more severe storms. This meant that in theory the machine would miss its booked space on the trans shipment from Melbourne to New Zealand. However due to some very heavy Melbourne fog and pure luck the vessel destined for NZ docked into Melbourne later than expected and after many many many phone calls to wharf shift supervisors by PMH staff and our freight forwarders DSV in the wee hours of a Friday night the machine did eventually make it on board the vessel for NZ in time!

The machine is now deployed in Metalcorp NZ yard and performing extremely well--- boosting productivity by at least 100%. The Sennebogen 825m machine was also a large part of the recent NZ Scrap Metal Association annual conference, with all NZ Scrap Metal companies having the opportunity to see the Sennebogen 825M in work, which was very well received.
