  • Continuous Operation For Terex RT 90 Rough Terrain Crane At The Cadarache Nuclear Research Center In The South Of France

    Use on construction site for thermonuclear research reactor requires highest precision and sensitivity

    For two and a half years now, the French branch of the Italian crane service provider Vernazza Autogru has been working on the construction site of the international research project for the generation of electricity from fusion energy, ITER. The Terex RT 90 rough terrain crane was chosen as part of the working equipment and has been in service there for months. During this time it has been reliable with no downtime.

    The high reliability of the Terex RT 90 was one of the main reasons for using this crane in Cadarache. "In addition, the RT 90 with its width of only three meters is the most compact crane of this type on the market. This, too, made it our first choice for this construction site. It also has the intuitive IC-1 control system, which ensures precise crane movements, and has an innovative diagnostic function," states Paolo Delfino, General Director France for Vernazza Autogru, as further reasons for using this crane.

    Regina, Saskatchewan ­– The Brandt Group of Companies has announced that effective November 1, 2018, they have acquired Camex Equipment Sales & Rentals Ltd. of Edmonton, Alberta. This deal represents an important expansion for Brandt into the specialty transportation equipment industry.

    “This is an exciting acquisition for us as Camex is a world-class company with the largest inventory of industry-specific transportation equipment in the business,” says Brandt President and CEO, Shaun Semple. “The combination of these two strong organizations guarantees unrivalled value for our customers and secures our place as the #1 provider of specialty transportation equipment in the industry.”

    The Camex name (C – Canada, A – America, MEX – Mexico) has been synonymous with excellence in custom truck rigging and on-highway specialized trailers for over 25 years. Camex products are in demand across North America and the company is a leader in the oil & gas, mining, pipeline, infrastructure, municipal and environmental sectors.

    The result of this acquisition is a new Brandt Group of Companies division called Brandt Truck Rigging & Trailers. This new division carries on the proud Camex tradition of supplying premium-quality specialty transportation solutions for industry.

    The Camex name lives on as a product brand for the specialized transportation equipment that the company manufactures, rents and sells; continuing to deliver the outstanding dependability and performance that customers have counted on for over 25 years.

    The Camex staff, with its outstanding reputation, dedication to excellence and track record of superior service in the industry is a strong addition to the Brandt team.

    “We couldn’t be more excited about becoming a part of the Brandt organization,” adds Camex Chief Operating Officer Sue McGregor. “It ensures that Camex customers will continue to receive the same great products and services that we’ve always been proud to offer them, but now with the addition of the tremendous value and heavy industry experience that Brandt brings to the table.”

    As a result of this acquisition, Canadian companies will now enjoy one-stop access to Brandt and Camex’s combined lineup of products and services and unmatched customer support infrastructure at the current Camex location as well as at Brandt branches across Canada.

    This acquisition includes three buildings – a 71,000 sq/ft sales and service facility and two others – totalling 150,000sq/ft, situated on a 26-acre property located at Hwy 16 and Hwy 625, near the Edmonton International Airport.

    The deal with Camex officially closed on November 1, 2018.
