BRN: Canethumper in Brazil

Report 2: The CaneThumper® and team transport bus

A problem that has been faced is the logistics of getting the CaneThumper® to and from the field efficiently with the entire team and the necessary back?up. This has been a concern for numerous future uses especially with labour unions being stricter and there being no room for error.

This caused a sugarmill in Brazil, who is a client of BRN, Della Colleta, to investigate for themselves and after purchasing 2 CaneThumper® decided to design their own transport bus.

The bus was made to fit 4 units and carry all 24 workers for all units. The bus was adapted with a partition down the centre to keep the workshop with the machines totally separate from the people.

As you can notice, the bus is equipped with :

  • transport seats ( front part )
  • special ramp and place to fit park up to 4 CT units
  • toilet
  • Clean, cold water
  • Tool storage place
  • special tanks for diesel and grease
  • chairs and tables for coffee break and lunch with cover from the sun

The following pictures shows all of this and are made available by the exclusive dealer for Southern and Central America, BRN with permission from Della Colleta:
