Putzmeister Wins Another Big Order from Tokyo Electric Power Company

< P > < FONT face = Verdana > The leakage of the Fukushima nuclear power plant triggered by the tsunami in Japan shocked the world and attracted wide attention from all countries. Since March 21, 2011, the first Putzmeister 58-meter pump truck rushed to the scene for rescue. After a week of emergency construction, the high efficiency and high quality of Putzmeister pump truck were unanimously recognized by the Japanese government and Tokyo Electric Power Company, and additional orders were immediately placed.

< P > < FONT face = Verdana > On March 26, 2011, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) once again purchased two 70-meter pump trucks and two 62-meter pump trucks from Putzmeister, with a total contract value of nearly $10 million. It is the second batch of Putzmeister pump trucks used by Tokyo Electric Power Company after Putzmeister 58-meter pump trucks carried out cooling tasks at Fukushima Nuclear Power Station Unit 4 in Japan. These products are required to be delivered before March 31. At present, Putzmeister is arranging delivery and on-site support training. At least two operators and after-sales service personnel will be arranged to follow Putzmeister's 70-meter-long boom pump truck, because there are no experienced personnel in Japan to operate such a huge pump truck.

< P > < FONT face = Verdana > About the 70-meter Putzmeister pump truck, the concrete pump truck M70-5, which was released to the world by Putzmeister to create a new world record on the occasion of celebrating the 50th anniversary of the company's birth at the end of May 2008, has a stretching height of nearly 70 meters and the largest motion radius of the placing boom. The large < FONT face = Verdana > width of the pump truck improves the coverage of concrete construction. The pump truck is equipped with a high-capacity double-piston pump with a maximum displacement of 200 m3/H. Originally developed for the American market, it is very suitable for large construction sites because of its large displacement and long boom. Later, it received orders from all over the world. Putzmeister's 70-meter pump truck is also the only pump truck with super-long boom used in practice all over the world.
