K>MOBIL 31 // FAUN Markets: Success
At the beginning of the year the fifth FAUN POWERPRESS fitted with a 3-ton rear crane for
picking up 3,000-liter underground containers was commissioned in Canton Graubünden near
the city of Chur in Switzerland.
J. Ochsner AG –
Swiss waste needs good ideas
At the end of February J. Ochsner AG and its
customer, the City of Schlieren near Zurich,
celebrated the demonstration of a waste disposal
vehicle that has everything modern technology
can offer together with an audience of 120 invited
guests from local politics and the waste disposal
industry.
The combination VARIOPRESS with its new, fully
automatic ALPHA lifter system featuring a lifterintegrated
solution for weighing the waste bins
with Ochsner’s own WIGA system presented a
great challenge for the technical experts at
Ochsner. After three months of trial service for
vehicle, lifter and weighing system, the solution
developed by Ochsner has proven to have very
fast lifting and weighing cycles (5 seconds per
two-wheel bin) and very reliable weighing results.
The enhanced WIGA system from J. Ochsner AG
makes it possible to separately identify, weigh and
calculate the waste produced for each separate
household. WIGA is the most-sold waste weighing
system in Switzerland and is currently being used
in over 400 cities and communities throughout
Europe.

good company of reference in Switzerland: the first FAUN
FRONTPRESS on a 4-axle Scania chassis is being used to pick
up industrial waste for the company Schneider in Meilen on
the shores of Lake Zurich.
