Bucher introduce new truck mounted sweeper for heavy duty applications

The latest addition to Bucher Municipal’s range of truck mounted sweepers, is the MaxPowa V120, designed to excel in heavy-duty and public works applications whilst maintaining exceptional quality and performance. Mounted on a 3-axle, 26t GVM chassis the MaxPowa V120 offers a large 12 m³ capacity hopper, carries up to 6700 litres of water and allows a 10,000 kg payload ensuring on-station time is optimised.

One of the most innovative features of this latest product is the Tri-plate fan impellor which has been designed to handle the enhanced power from the new JCB 129 kW engine, also launched with the MaxPowa V120. This new patent pending fan design, together with an updated cooling pack and Bucher Municipal’s unique Smoothflow technology all combine to deliver outstanding pick-up performance in the toughest of conditions. Part of the V series family, the V120 is available with a full range of options including the new ‘Broomvak’ brush assist sweepgear allowing higher speed pickup performance or low fan rpm operation.

Public works applications typically require high pressure washing and full width suction and the modular platform means that these options, already offered on the MaxPowa V80, are carried over to the new V120. The full width nozzles together with the high pressure water option provides 100 litres @ 200 bar resulting in high performance cleaning to achieve ‘Back to Black’ results, a key requirement on highway and construction projects.
