Worthington expert sees AHSS and active noise cancellation making off-highway cabs safer and less-stressful places to work.
Worthington Industries made its first-ever appearance at bauma in April, showcasing the new Global Cab modular design along with its European manufacturing partner Fritzmeier. The cab's length and width can be varied by using different modular parts and the ROPS (rollover protection structure) incorporated to meet varying requirements while optimizing the cab structure to increase visibility.
Aluminum extruded structures can be applied in weight-sensitive applications such as in crane construction, providing a ROPS loading capacity of up to 20 t. For heavier-duty applications, the cab can be reinforced with an integrated steel INNO-ROPS structure that increases the loading capacity to 50 t.
