More Palfinger Sanys for Yapi Merkezi

Turkish contractor Yapi Merkezi has placed a follow up order with Palfinger Sany worth $3.2 million for use on a major big Ethiopian railway project and projects in Turkey.

The latest order includes two CE certified 180 tonne five axle SAC1800 All Terrain cranes - which feature six section 62 metre booms plus 12.2 to 43 metre bi fold swingaway extensions with up to 40 degrees of offset - as well as a range of truck mounted cranes. The first units have already shipped.

This latest order follows a $6.4 million order placed in 2014, but this is the first time that the company has ordered CE models.
