The world’s tallest concrete pump, mounted on a 7-axle Scania V8-truck, put Scania in the Guinness Book of Records. The pump, unveiled by Chinese concrete machinery manufacturer Zoomlion, is 101 metres long and has a 7-section boom, the last 4 sections being made of carbon fibre.

Scania’s longest chassis

To cope with the weight of the 7-section boom, a 7-axle chassis was required. This was built at one of Scania’s chassi lines in Sweden and complemented by Laxå Special Vehicles, with their long tradition of building custom cabs and chassis for Scania. The 15.5-metre chassis, with a 620 hp V8-engine, is probably the longest ever built by Scania.

The complicated superstructure was developed by Zoomlion and Italian construction equipment maker Cifa, a subsidiary of the Chinese giant, and built at Zoomlion’s main facility in Changsha in central China.

Altogether this very special vehicle is 18.5 metres long. An exceptional feature is the fact that the pump structure is mounted on a “normal” truck chassis, not on a special vehicle, which means that it complies with the maximum dimensions and footprints imposed for road transport.

“Officially amazing” is the slogan of Guinness World Records, the company behind the world’s best-selling copyrighted book, that awarded the honour for this amazing Zoomlion-Cifa-Scania vehicle.

“Pump 101” will be exhibited at the Bauma China 2012 trade fair for construction machinery, to be held in Shanghai 27-30 November 2012. It is currently at the prototype stage, and is due to undergo a detailed structural and functional analysis, involving very strict tests. The target market for this product is primarily China, but there may also be demand from Europe in the future.
