Develon DX230WMH-7 Material Handler

Specialising in the collection and sorting of household and industrial waste, Pizzorno Environnement, the international group based in Draguignan in France, has just purchased new 24.5-tonne Develon DX230WMH-7 material handler for its sorting and recovery centre in Le Muy.

The Develon DX230WMH-7 – the first sold in Europe, and supplied by 510 Location (an agent for Develon dealer HMD in Arles) – operates 13 hours a day, 6 days a week. One of the largest and most modern in France, this site receives nearly 120,000 tonnes of recyclable waste from selective household and industrial collections every year.

Pizzorno's material handler from Develon has a 6m straight boom and 4.2m straight arm, equipped with a sorting grab for handling various materials. This is the first DX230WMH-7 sold by 510 Location, a specialist in the rental and sale of Develon equipment in the Var region.

The DX230WMH-7 is equipped with a standard elevating cab that can be raised by 2.5m to reach a floor height of 3.75m in the raised position. The operator can adjust the height of the cab without leaving their seat, thanks to a lever at the rear of the seat. Inside, the operator can access the video feed from the side and rear cameras on a screen. They can also monitor vital machine information.

Develon's Fleet Management TMS 3.0 Cellular telematics system on the DX230WMH-7 provides owners, dealers and the manufacturer with geolocation information as well as complete operational data for the machine, transmitted via computer or smartphone, in order to manage maintenance and reduce operating costs. A 510 Location technician presented the machine to operators on delivery, together with a demonstration of the maintenance procedures.
