Mantsinen brings a new material handling machine, Mantsinen 140, to the market. It is the first portal machine of this size with turning wheels, which enables sideways movement and efficient use in limited space. Other manufacturers do not have an equivalent option available.

Mantsinen 140 is designed mainly to be used at ports in loading and unloading ships, but it is also great in pulp and steel mills in feeding operations and terminal works. „140 model, positioned between 120 and 160 models, completes our material handling offering. It is a natural step for clients who are looking for more tons per hour from their material handling machine without significantly bigger investment. Mantsinen 140 machines are already delivered and sold to several countries, although the official launch took place at the beginning of September in our distributor meeting”, says Tapio Pirinen, Vice President of Material Handling Machinery at Mantsinen.

Mantsinen 140 offers notable competitive advantages. The machine is designed for a long lifetime and it is efficient, safe and maintenance-friendly. Undercarriage, power line and optional equipment are the same as in all the other Mantsinen material handling machines.

„The lifetime expectancy of the machine is in its own league, and it also has Hybrilift that makes it up to 50% more energy efficient. For maintenance work, it has a machine room with a roof on top. Mantsinen Telematics System makes IoT a part of material handling; it transfers important machine and operational data to cloud service, including for example handled tons, hydraulic pressures, temperatures and electronic service follow-up”, Pirinen sums.

All Mantsinen material handling machines are manufactured at Ylämylly factory in Finland. Mantsinen 140 was developed in only 1,5 years. The versatile product offering now has machines in all size ranges together with large selection of attachments.
