El gobierno del Tirol utiliza esparcidores tanto en verano como en invierno. Por su parte, el proveedor de servicios estonio EKT Teed OÜ confía en un vehículo multiusos con un sistema intercambiable que puede utilizarse todo el año. ¿Serán pronto todas nuestras máquinas polivalentes y utilizables todo el año? Hablamos con Henning Schröder, Jefe de Tecnología del Grupo, y Gerhard Neudorfer, Jefe de Ventas para Europa.

Sweepers are versatile, flexible and effective. Companies, municipalities and other organisations use them. The technology is used in street and pavement cleaning as well as for many other tasks. The requirements for sweepers could hardly be more different. This depends on the size of the area to be cleaned, the type of soiling and other factors. This is where we from the Aebi Schmidt Group come into play. With our broad portfolio of sweepers, we have the right solution for your problem - for sure!

Coffee stains, chewing gum, leftover food – The ground of the reconfigured “Kröpcke” square in Hanover city centre was covered with unsightly mess just a short time after it opened. The reason for this is that when the area underwent refurbishment three years ago, delicate light sandstone was laid and this really does attract the dirt. To make sure the square can gleam with a new splendour – and retain this in the future as well – the city has added two Schmidt City Jet 3000s to its fleet of cleaning vehicles. They clean the pavement with hot water which is blasted onto the stones at high pressure. The difference is clear to see at the places where the machine has been deployed. Instead of dark-grey paving stones, the stones look almost as good as new once they have been cleaned.

The state of Tyrol is responsible for a total of 2,236 km of road network, with the state roads lying at 470 to over 2,000 metres above sea level. The state authorities have been utilising salt and brine for their winter services since 2017. To do this, they use a Schmidt Stratos Combi Soliq Flex, a combined machine that spreads or sprays with abrasive agents, dry salt or wet salt containing the required proportion of brine. They have recently started using ‘the spreader’ in summer as well.

In the past days, some cities have decided to disinfect so-called “hot spots” such as bus stops in the fight against COVID-19. Under what conditions and with what risks in terms of material compatibility can disinfectants be used in a sweeper, washer or sprayer? We checked with our experts.
