Here’s Ra<br />
For some people the Finnish manufacturer Ramtec is<br />
perhaps a <strong>com</strong>pletely new name. However, the <strong>com</strong>pany dates<br />
back to the 1970s even if it was founded in 2002. Ramtec,<br />
located in Lahti, Finland, was since the 1970s a development<br />
and production section of Rammer, today Sandvik.<br />
Will Ramtec be<strong>com</strong>e<br />
a new strong Nordic<br />
brand of demolition<br />
and recycling attachments?<br />
With its<br />
determined drive, a<br />
very modern production<br />
plant and their<br />
long reputation in the<br />
market the <strong>com</strong>pany<br />
has a good chance to<br />
succeed.<br />
The Ramtec CG series contains of<br />
three models for carriers between<br />
10 to 60 t.<br />
Once a part of Sandvik/Rammer<br />
<strong>In</strong> 2002 Ramtec became an independent <strong>com</strong>pany through a<br />
management buy-out from Sandvik. Ramtec still has a close<br />
co-operation with its previous owner and manufactures several<br />
of the basic <strong>com</strong>ponents of Sandvik’s demolition attachment<br />
and breaker series.<br />
After the management buy-out Ramtec started to develop<br />
a line of hydraulic handling, recycling and demolition tools,<br />
called the Robi Series. “We have invested the time necessary<br />
to build up our own strong line of attachments, but we are<br />
not in a hurry and we want to meet our customers’ exact<br />
requirements. Our first new products were invented in 2003<br />
but launched globally during 2008. They have been very well<br />
received by the market,” says Ramtec marketing manager<br />
Vesa Santala.<br />
Four Robi Families<br />
The Robi products are divided into four groups. The DGseries<br />
has five models of demolition and sorting attachments,<br />
the DG6r, DG8r, DG15r, DG20r and DG30r, which cover<br />
weights from 250kg to 1.77t and suitable for carriers between<br />
2.5 to <strong>40</strong>t. The concrete crusher series CG contains three<br />
models; the CG20r, CG35r and CG50r. Weights are 1.8, 2.6<br />
and 3.5t and suited for carriers between 10 to 60t. CG35r is<br />
<strong>com</strong>pletely new for the international market and was launched<br />
at the <strong>In</strong>termat show in Paris this spring. It has been sold on<br />
the Finnish market though for about two years. The HG-series<br />
are the three sorting grapples, HG10r, HG20r and HG30r<br />
weighing 1.6, 2 and 2.6t, and developed for carriers between 10<br />
to 60t. The last series are the Multi Master screening buckets<br />
for screening and recycling of different types of building materials.<br />
Multi Master is available in three different sizes, MM104,<br />
MM154 and MM254. MM104 weighs 1.7t and has a screening<br />
capacity of up to 1.4m 3 and screening area of 1.2 m 2 . MM154<br />
weighs 2.3t and has a capacity of 1.9m 3 and a screening area of<br />
1.8m 2 . The biggest unit is the MM254, weighing 2.9t. It has a<br />
capacity of 3.2m 3 and a screening area of 2.7m 2 . The buckets<br />
have been developed to screen and crush soil, wood, bricks and<br />
other types of demolition waste and glass. All Robi products,<br />
except the Multi Master buckets rotate 360°.<br />
