Aebi Schmidt and South Cambs District Council’s Fleet and Asset Management look back to a great relationship for close on 25 years.

Moreover, its driver confirms how less tired he is at the end of a shift on an eSwingo.
Handling Ten Tons Single-Handedly
Even the best functions of a machine are useless if they cannot be controlled at the crucial moment. This is why the handling - the interface between man and machine - has always been a high priority at Aebi. Our operating concept is the result of decades of optimisation. It is best explained in the tidy cockpit of the Aebi TP 470 Vario.
Chasing Santa with the eCleango 550
Every year on 5 December, the town of Küssnacht am Rigi in Switzerland comes to a standstill. For the annual Klausjagen (Nicholas chase) festival, over 1,500 men parade through the town in central Switzerland with whips, bells, horns and colourful lanterns, known as ‘Iffelen’. Some 30,000 visitors flock to Küssnacht to watch the spectacle. This creates a lot of work for staff at the local road maintenance depot the following day. Aebi Schmidt has assisted the road maintenance team by providing three additional sweepers, including electric models Schmidt eSwingo 200⁺ and Schmidt eCleango 550, to clean the streets after the major festival.

The right wheel for every terrain
You can't reinvent the wheel?! This does not apply to our new double wheel system. Aebi offers a new, innovative double wheel concept for the Combicut motorised mowers in the large series. After a one-time pre-installation, the new system allows dual wheels to be attached in just a few seconds and removed again, for example for transporting the single axle machine.
From the family farm to a full-fledged manufacturer
When Eskil Swenson started Swenson Products in 1937, then known as Cherry Valley Pulverizer Company, he had no idea it would grow to the manufacturing company it is today! Back then, he worked on everything himself on his family farm, including their first twin roller chain drive spreader, which was used primarily in agriculture.
If the day starts at 4:30 a.m., it can be a little bit more comfortable
From the top of the Col du Pillon pass, in the west of Switzerland at 1546 meters above sea level, it takes about 15 minutes by aerial tramway to reach the top station of the glacier ski area Glacier 3000. Four snow blowers and two trucks equipped with plows ensure that the unique glacier ski area is always accessible, even for early risers. On arrival, you are usually rewarded with a breathtaking view of the Eiger, Jungfrau and Matterhorn. To ensure that access to the aerial tramway is possible at all times, heavy equipment is also needed at this altitude - for example the new Supra 4002 from Jean-Luc Busset.

And, it was not only the Street King’s features that impressed, but also the possibility of buying single source, service included.

The fire department Aletsch counts on the Aebi VT450 Vario with firefighting superstructure by Brändle The fire department Aletsch in the car-free municipality Bettmeralp in the Swiss canton Wallis expanded its vehicle fleet with a new “colleague” in November.

Supremely Slim – Aebi MT with Fire-Fighting equipment
COMPACT DESIGN COMBINED WITH MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE When the fire service is called, every second counts. However, large emergency vehicles often reach their limits particularly in tight little alleyways in old towns or on rough terrain in mountainous regions. These limits can sometimes be life-threatening if emergency workers and equipment cannot get to the scene of an incident quickly enough. By contrast, the 1.70-metre-wide narrow-track transporters Aebi MT750/MT740 (1.60 metre on the Aebi MT720) can maneuver with ease even in narrow little alleys and, with a fire-fighting attachment, it offers the full range of functions of larger emergency vehicles. With 115 kW (156 hp) and a VM turbo diesel engine (Euro 6) with six cylinders, the top-of-the-range model delivers plenty of power on the road. With all-wheel drive including a gear reduction ratio and locking differential, the Aebi MT is also an ideal off-road companion. An ergonomically designed 3-seater or 2-seater cabin provides a very pleasant and comfortable drive.
