Patrik Starck, Regional Sales Director in Europe for Konecranes Lift Trucks, said: “Rauma want their machines to come with cutting edge lift truck technology, therefore our new C model with the spacious cabin OPTIMA together with our TRUCONNECT system played a big role in winning the deal. We are proud that our machines and technologies continue to earn Rauma’s trust.”

Petri Viinikkala of Euroports Rauma, said: “The TRUCONNECT Remote service means that no matter where the trucks are we have a clear and precise picture of how they are being operated, and how they are running. We can clearly anticipate any issues, to significantly increase uptime and efficiency of our fleet.”
