Brazilian rental company Rentalvale Equipment, based in Sao Paulo, has put one of its Barin under bridge inspection units out to work on a new road bridge leading to FIFA World Cup stadium Arena Sao Paulo.
The ABC 60/L has a maximum underbridge working length of 6 m and is mounted on a 2-axle Iveco Daily 70C16 truck. The unit is made of aluminium and has a platform width of 1 m, with a 300 kg capacity.
The machines can negotiate sidewalks up to 1.7 m wide and 2 m high wind barriers and can work parallel to the bridge axis with an underbridge rotation of 135°.
During road operations, the ABC 60/L occupies one lane of traffic, allowing the second lane to flow.
