Sany has begun production of the Sany STH1056A telehandler in Bedburg for the North American market.

The main focus is on combining European components, for example German Deutz engines, Italian Dana axles and gearboxes, and a Parker hydraulic system, with a Japanese Kawasaki Load Sense piston pump and Chinese steel components. The obligatory end-of-line testing is also conducted on-site in Bedburg.

"The short transport routes, as well as the fact that delivery to the USA is reliable and continually possible, were a major factor in our decision to produce these machines in Germany," explains Tanja Altjohann, spokesperson for the Port division of Sany Europe. "We are also looking forward to further strengthening the Bedburg site and its production expertise within the Sany Group."

The Sany telehandlers have been tested in the toughest of conditions. They have completed more than 10,000 circuits of the test course and over 20,000 cycles of the entire lifting structure at the full nominal load.

Sany Europe is a division of Sany Heavy Industry from Changsha, China, one of the three largest manufacturers of construction machinery worldwide.
