en.Wedoany.com Reported - Italian construction machinery manufacturer Merlo showcased a range of innovative products at the 2026 Samoter exhibition, covering technical upgrades and new product models in its compact rotating telehandler series, with optimizations in power, stability, and operating comfort.

As one of the main highlights of the exhibition, Merlo updated its ROTO16 and ROTO18 series compact rotating telehandlers. The new models feature a widened frame design, which can increase lifting capacity by up to 75% under maximum outreach conditions, while simultaneously optimizing balance and operational performance. The extended ON/OFF stabilizers and redesigned frame further enhance overall machine stability, while the ASCS (Adaptive Stability Control System) improves the smoothness of motion response and operational precision, thereby ensuring a safer and more accurate working process.

Merlo also introduced a new premium radio remote control, featuring an intuitive interface and a color display, capable of storing up to six operating configurations. The remote control is compatible with uncoded attachments, increasing the machine's versatility while ensuring safety and performance.

Furthermore, the ROTO series has been expanded with two new models, the ROTO60.22 and ROTO60.27, designed with a focus on increasing load capacity and lifting height to meet the demands of larger construction sites.

In the Samoter Innovation Awards, Merlo won in the telehandler category, with the jury's rationale being "for further improving the safety level for telehandler operators using various types of attachments."
