MD 610 M40

Non current product

The new MD 610 model is available with a K850 2.45 m strong mast and a 2.5 m mast.


The MD 610 M40 replaces the MD 560 B M40. It comes with the 270 LVF winch the latest generation of frequency-varying winches which can generate very high speed/load performance – up to 162 m/min. for a load of 2.8 t.

 

A Power Control function is also available. This feature allows the winch to be operated at several different levels of input power. Thanks to this system the winch can be used even at construction sites where power is limited.
In addition the Optima function allows for constant speed optimization according to the hoisted load.

Specifications

  • Description

    Reinforced mast: K850 2.45 m or round R 2.5 m

    The frequency variation mechanisms (lift distribution orientation) allow the following circumstances:

    • The regulation and control of the motor can be adapted to the machine's features notably height jib length and the load being hoisted: the behaviour of the crane while in operation is adapted to its configuration.
    • Acceleration and deceleration for the machine and the crane operator are optimized: the crane structure is protected over the long term.
    • Deceleration phases can limit the use of brakes. Brakes can be dropped at zero speed. This protects the crane structure over the long term.
    • The crane operator can interact with the deceleration curves (it is possible to operate against orientation with Optima+). This allows the machine to be adapted to operating habits.
    • The technician can quickly establish detailed diagnostics on the mechanisms thanks to the various menus on the variation panel (reading parameters meters) permitting a simple fast and efficient dialogue between man and machine.
    • Inrush current can be reduced.
    • Consumption can be reduced.

    The MD 610 combines numerous innovations designed to reinforce safety and simplicity during assembly:

    • The auxiliary winch used to ready the counter jib and jib cables considerably reduces assembly time. It also serves to mechanise the arm on the 25 t version.
    • The large platforms and designated access distinctly improve and secure working conditions for lifting personnel.
    • Every crane component is equipped with anchoring points for safe handling.

    The next-generation Ultra View cab meets all the requirements for the crane operator to work safely in a comfortable ergonomic environment.
    Extremely spacious it also provides excellent visibility of the construction site thanks to its 9 m² glass surface.
    It comes with state-of-the-art equipment and a highly functional layout that allows the operator to personalise his space:

    • Auto-regulated climate control upholstery
    • Dialog Visu II indicators (display area showing information to assist in operation: immediate range permitted range height suspended load permitted load time wind haul)
    • Front window wipers side window wipers sun visor
    • Storage table electrical outlets
     

    Key Advantages

    • Fastest winch in its class: 270 hp for a maximum load of 40 t 532 m cable winding capacity
    • Auxiliary winch standard for assembling cables
    • Jib assembly possible in 1 2 or 3 parts. Maximum weight during assembly can be limited to approx. 16 t
    • Comfortable access for assembly and maintenance
