en.Wedoany.com Reported - Portuguese construction company Primazia - Engenharia e Construção, Lda. has introduced the Bobcat TR60.260 rotating telehandler to improve construction efficiency and safety. Headquartered in Bragança and founded in 2022, the company operates in residential and non-residential building construction, real estate development, building restoration and renovation, technical installations, real estate sales and purchases, construction equipment rental, and engineering and architectural design projects.
Company partner and manager Vasco Afonso stated that the choice of the Bobcat TR60.260 was driven by a specific need: to acquire a versatile machine with high lifting capacity and a wide working range, capable of safe operation across different construction fronts. Previously, the company relied on multiple machines for various tasks, increasing construction time and operational costs; limitations in reach, lifting capacity, and flexibility made working at height difficult, often requiring additional equipment.
The Bobcat TR60.260, with a maximum load capacity of 6 tons, a maximum lift height of 25.8 meters, and a 360° continuous rotating turret, allows Primazia to consolidate functions that previously required multiple machines into a single unit. This change has significantly improved site organization, increased productivity, and enabled more efficient resource management.
The machine is regularly used for construction projects, steel structure installation, material handling, and site logistics operations. Among its most important tasks are structural installation, palletized material handling, heavy lifting, and working at height support across different project types. A recent operation involved moving and placing materials at height, executed quickly, precisely, and with high safety standards.
The company particularly emphasizes the machine's stability and precision of movement, which are crucial when handling heavy loads or working at height. Operators appreciate the cab's comfort, excellent visibility, and ease of operation, contributing to safer and more productive workdays.
Another decisive factor is the versatility offered by using Bobcat original attachments. In this case, Primazia uses a rotating platform, a 6-ton Bobcat hydraulic winch, rotating forks, and a concrete skip. These attachments allow the machine to be quickly adapted to the specific needs of each project.
The introduction of the Bobcat TR60.260 has also significantly reduced construction time and improved operational efficiency, decreasing the number of machines required for certain tasks and simplifying site logistics. The company highlights that operator safety and comfort conditions have improved due to the overall stability and advanced assistance systems built into the machine.
Vasco Afonso concluded: "The Bobcat TR60.260 telehandler makes our work faster, safer, and more efficient."
The purchase decision was supported by advice from the dealer Michaelis & Martins, whose guidance was crucial in determining the configuration best suited to the company's needs. Based on the experience gained, Primazia recommends this model for its versatility, performance, reliability, and ability to effectively address a wide range of applications in the construction industry.
