A beautiful shine!

When we´re out at exhibitions we often receive comments on the shine and luster of our products. Many are those that comments that our products really shine, and indeed in many ways stands out among all the other products. What´s the secret?

Maybe we should not tell all the details behind the nice finish but like most things in this world it is all about the groundwork. A few years ago, Fors MW invested large in a number of machines, one of these investments was our huge (it almost takes a large machine room of itself) blaster. To blaster a complete chassis contributes to a great finish and a good base to paint. A year ago we also installed a new paint system in the Fors MW painting facility. Nowadays, there is a two component paint that comes out of our paint sprayers. The paint has a harder surface and a UV protection for a shine that lasts!

Meet another BIGAB user – Trädgårds Göran!

Gardening Göran (Göran is a common Swedish name) is the English translation of the company name of this successful company that was founded by Göran Carlsson. He has six employees that work all year around but in peak season it can be up to 15 people. They handle turf and maintenance of facilities and buildings for both companies as well as private persons, all in need of assistance. In winter they also take care of snow removal and sanding.

The machine park consists of several nice items but the latest purchase was BIGAB 10 – 14 with a Z crane with radio control all which was bought when he traded in his old BIGAB 7 – 10 with a FARMA crane. They applaud the cranes unique advantages mainly because it can park the bucket so that it is not in the way when they need to tip or hook the container. They also stated that they will never again buy a trailer without frame steering. The frame steering is praised again and again for the opportunities it provides to handle those really tight areas.

The hook lift trailer is mainly used to drive dirt and gravel and to transport shrub and brushwood and to lay out the topsoil. It is also used to move a lot of machinery that other way would take time to move, or that are not allowed to drive on public road.

This is yet again another very successful entrepreneur who has understood the use of BIGAB in his work. That is for us the best of ambassadors for BIGAB!

Hot day´s in Sweden

The second day of the show MaskinExpo in Stockholm, Sweden has provided us with sunny and really warm weather and quite a lot of visitors. Lots of interest for the new hook lift trailer by the name BIGAB Generation 2 has made our day. The orders keep s on coming. Today we also enjoyed a visit from Estonia. It was four of our fantastic ladies that came for a visit to have a good time and to be inspired for future work. We thank them for the visit and hope that they have a safe journey back!

BIGAB proudly presents – BIGAB Generation 2!

At the contractor show in Sweden, named MaskinExpo, Fors MW today presented this year´s main transportation news in the stand. A patent - pending hook lift trailer that we call both faster and smarter. BIGAB Generation 2 has a tip angle of 65 degrees, an increase of almost 20 degrees to the previous model. The tip rate is improved by 38 % and the hooking is 46 % faster.

This trailer is equipped with frame lock/ bogie blocking for safer and quieter hooking and a bolted drawbar for increased flexibility. Another feature is the double sided hydraulic lock on the frame. That the trailer has a shoot blasted chassi painted in two – component paint (now standard on all our products) makes it even better. The paint has higher UV – protection which makes the paint harder with a lasting glow.

This is a product development of Fors MW. A stronger link in your chain of transport!

More information will follow after the exhibition. In production earlier September.
