Platform Basket 54 T

Innovative self-propelled aerial platform with extendable tracks and simple, intuitive controls. It can reach an operating height of 54 m and can be used (also) as an actual mobile crane. A mix of efficiency, reliability and versatility that once again proves our commitment to providing high-tech solutions, developed with utmost attention to detail.

Platform Basket 54T is a concentrate of technology;
its potential allows it to be the ideal solution for large projects and ‘logistical’ challenges requiring a higher vertical load-bearing capacity.

Its distinctive feature is its working height, which places it at the top of the industry. Thanks to Platform Basket’s experience and design and construction expertise, operators can now reach places that are not usually accessible, opening up new perspectives in areas such as construction, infrastructure maintenance, telecommunications and industry.

• Automatic stabilisation/destabilisation
• 4 independent stabilisers
• Triple stabilisation area
• Positioning precision
• Expandable tracker with double travel speed
• Single beam steel frame S700
• High working height with 7-stage telescopic system
• made of high-strength steel
• Telescopic JIB with 3 hydraulic extensions
• Radio-controlled control system
• Aluminium basket (4 persons, 400 kg)

The platform is equipped with a telescopic jib with three hydraulic extensions, which allows a horizontal reach of 18.5 m at a height of 45 m and with 400 kg in the basket (the maximum value is 20 m with 136 kg capacity).

The working height, together with the triple stabilisation area, offers a versatile solution for large projects and contexts with highly variable placement conditions.

Performance without compromise

Diagnostics and monitoring.
Platform Basket has always invested heavily in the improvement of remote diagnostics and monitoring systems, with the aim of creating an advantage even for users who had hitherto avoided the use of these systems, but who, with technological advancement, increasingly need support and the possibility of analysing the use of their vehicles.

The optional PBT (Platform Basket Telematics) device is the result of this development and consists of a hardware part connected to the machine, containing an integrated international data SIM card that sends all the vehicle’s essential data to the cloud: geolocation on the globe, working hours and their breakdown, load cell data and active or past alarms, and a software part that can be consulted from a dedicated web portal, with protected access, which allows viewing the data saved in the cloud. Even if there is no data coverage, these are saved on a built-in memory card to be sent when the signal is restored. In order to make the system more userfriendly, the web platform can be consulted from fixed PCs or mobile devices. The most important purposes of use are diagnostics and assistance, man/machine communication and monitoring of vehicle use.

Stability on inclined planes.
A key feature of this machine is that it is able to reach places normally inaccessible to conventional vehicles, thanks both to the advanced stabilisation system and to the robust frame structure and large tracked undercarriage; all of which allows Platform Basket 54T to tackle even the roughest terrain.

Radio controlled.
A sophisticated system that offers flexibility and safe handling for operators. It allows the platform to be controlled remotely, providing greater freedom of movement and a better view of the work area. The colour display with anti-glare technology ensures a clear and sharp view of vital information, even in direct sunlight. In addition, a second radio control is available in the basket workstation, which can also be used as a remote control, guaranteeing the same diagnostic functions via display.

Simplified transport.

There are two possibilities for loading Platform Basket 54T onto the trailer for transport to the workplace:
1. the trailer in reverse is positioned underneath the Platform Basket 54T with the stabilisers raised
2. the Platform Basket 54T, thanks to its mobility on tracks, is positioned independently on the trailer.

Winch version (WCH)

“A real mobile crane”

The new Platform Basket 54 T is a highly innovative self-propelled tracked platform that makes no compromises in terms of reliability, quality and efficiency. A telescopic machine capable of working in winch configuration at 54 m with 1000 kg of load capacity in total safety, a performance among the highest in the world, encompassing a combination of state-of-the-art technology and advanced control. A machine that exceeds all expectations in the field of heavy duty lifting. The winch configuration involves a winch mounted directly on the jib, in order to ensure better performance and speed when converting the machine from an aerial platform to a lifting device.

With great attention to detail, a lightweight and easily transportable system was designed to support the basket assembly during the conversion from a spider to a hoist.
