The new SPX1280, the versatile minicrane featuring endless options of stabilization You might see the world in black or white, or consider a glass always half-full or half-empty. But between the extremes there are endless options. This is the concept underlying the new SPX1280: beyond the limits, the world has no limits, and the operator turns into a painter whose palette offers all the colours of the rainbow and their endless combinations and nuances. From art to yard, the step seems far too long but it’s the principle that counts and makes everything easier. The SPX1280 encompasses new-generation technology that fully exploits the concepts of stability and hoisting. This results in straightforwardness and versatility for the operators to enjoy a new working experience and endless operating configurations, pushing to the extremes the concept of performance. A closer look at the characteristics and performance of the new SPX1280 will make you feel several light-years have gone since the launch of its predecessor, the SPX1275, that now gives way to Jekko’s newborn after long years of good and loyal service. This machine is a real blank page for the operator, who can use endless configurations to be exploited very easily, notably through a completely revised user interface – maintains Mauro Tonon, Export Sales Manager Jekko. – The SPX1280 has a maximum safe working load equal to 8 tons and reaches 26.6 m in height when the hydraulic jib is installed. Considering its weight, size and stabilization area, it’s no doubt the most performing machine within its sector. And of course the Pick & Carry mode for operation at 360° with a 2-ton load, Jekko’s trademark, is obviously available. The stabilization system of the SPX1280 considers several factors in order to determine the possible working conditions. Depending on the opening angle and the extension of the stabilisers – as well as the possible use of the counterweight – the machine software can define in real time the maximum safe working load in a specific point. In the past this wasn’t possible at such an extent since partial extensions of the stabilizers and 0° to 45° intermediate angles couldn’t be taken into account. The stabilization degrees have increased from four to seven and their displaying on the interface is easier and user-friendly.   AN ADVANCED AND PRECISE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

Leonardo Dei Tos has won again, this time earning a well-deserved silver. The 26-year-old of the Athletic Club 96 Alperia won the silver medal in the Italian Championship in 50-kilometre race walk event in San Giorgio di Gioiosa Marea (Messina) this morning, after winning the gold in 2018.He was satisfied with his performance and with a final time 3h56’56” he improved his personal best by almost three minutes. “I have bettered myself by almost three minutes, finishing at a little more than one and half minutes after the winner”, he commented from Sicily. This result is the minimum qualifier for the world championship in Doha in October. Meanwhile, he will be called to the European Race Walk Cup in Alytus, Lithuania, on 19 May. “My sensations were not very good at the beginning of the race, but I paced myself well, crossing the 25-kilometre mid-race mark in 2 hours and scoring a time of 1h56’56” in the second half of the race. The last 8 kilometres were really tough, but that can be expected when you attempt two 50-kilometre races in little more than three months because you feel the physical toll. I will rest now and have the Cup in my sights“. The year 2019 started for Dei Tos in the best of ways, with another top-three result in a national event. In the last 10 Italian indoor and outdoor championships, the 26-year-old athlete, who moved to Milan from Vittorio Veneto six years ago, collected a dozen medals including a gold in the 5000-metre indoor event in 2015. He attended electrical engineering school and is a keen mountaineer. His trainer is Enzo Fiorillo.   © Salima Barzanti – Messaggero Veneto
