Video – Safedem aims high with VTN…

Leading Scottish contractor puts multiprocessor through its paces.

Dundee-based Safedem has been testing the power of its newly-purchased VTN MT20 multiprocessor as part of a contract to strip out and demolish 20 Rosemount Street, Roystonhill, Glasgow, one of three blocks in this area scheduled for demolition between now and 2015.

The attachment, supplied by ECY Haulmark, is mounted on a newly purchased Liebherr 954 fitted with a 34 metre high reach boom. The VTN MT20 weighs in at 2,000 kg, has a jaw opening width of 860 mm, and is equipped with interchangeable jaws, making it the ideal tool to use where there is a variety of different materials to process, ideal on this particular job as it can tackle the concrete and rebar in one cut.
