The Art of finding the rightMAterial At PALFINGER, nothing is left to chance. The synthetics, along with their manufacturing process, for all cover and functional design elements were specially developed in collaboration with universities and synthetics experts from the auto industry. The synthetics used in the crane column casings are manufactured by means of the R-RIM process (Reinforced Reaction Injection Molding). Wherever ergonomics, durability and shock-absorbent elements are called for, parts molded out of polyurethane foam are the ideal solution. Density, shore hardness, tensile strength, color and the fitting of fasteners and reinforcement elements can all be perfectly adjusted to each other. Surfaces can be designed in a wide array of options through the use of various structures and colors. The R- RIM production process makes optimal design and the robust, yet light-weight construction of crane casings possible. Another advantage of the R-RIM process is that small components can first be inserted into the tool form before the reaction takes place. This so-called "insertion technique" enables the small components to be integrated directly and stably into the design parts before being secured by foam. crane passion | 10
All crane column casings are applied with a pearl structure coating for longlasting UV protection. Qualities of synthetic casings at a glance: - Optimal light-weight construction - Ergonomic shapes - High resistance to temperature and UV rays - Premium appearance and surface feel - Impact-resistant, sturdy and robust Job-oriented stress tests confirm the durability of synthetic casings. The process: In R-RIM (Reinforced reaction injection molding) two components (polyol and isocyanate) and a flexibilizer are mixed in a so-called mix head to increase impact resistance and injected under high pressure into a molding tool. The exothermic reaction of the components produces the thermoset plastic polyurethane, which can then be removed from the tool. Treads designed to be both functional and highly resistant are produced with the aid of a polyamide plastic reinforced with fiber glass. These components are formed using the well-established injection molding process. ca. 80-90 kg ca. 30 kg crane passion | 11
