Aebi Schmidt Ibérica expands its offer for municipalities and contractors with refuse collection vehicles

This summer, Aebi Schmidt Ibérica signed a distribution agreement for side loader refuse collection vehicles with AMS, a leading manufacturer of municipal waste management equipment based and producing in Italy. The CL1 series models are well-known and popular due to their ease of operation and high reliability.

Proven and continuously developed technology

Since its foundation in 1971, AMS has developed into one of the leading manufacturers of equipment for municipal waste management. The vehicles in the CL1 model series are available with seven different container sizes between 13 and 32 cubic metres. More than 1,500 of these models, which are popular due to their robust and fast container lifting system, are now in use. AMS offers efficient, reliable and economically sustainable vehicles. The many patents registered over the past decades testify to the company's commitment to developing and offering easy-to-operate, durable solutions with clever, state-of-the-art technology.

The CL1 is available as a conventional, electric hybrid and natural gas-powered model.

CL1 model series: Durable, reliable and safe

The CL1 bodies are made of a special steel alloy in a single, monolithic, continuously wire-welded structure. They are designed to harmonise optimally with the frame and maximise the total loading volume and the permissible payload. The CL1 is also suitable for the collection of organic waste thanks to its technically clever, high sealing. The patented lifting device is simple and robust and avoids memorising the container spacing, thereby preventing possible errors when placing it back on the ground. Special devices, perfected over time by AMS, eliminate the risk of hopper clogging due to the loading of light and/or bulky material. An advantage for separate waste collection. The container can be easily centred, picked up and repositioned on the ground using five colour cameras, two monitors and a joystick. The working area is displayed during the entire lifting and positioning cycle. Users can monitor the operating status of the entire system and perform on-board diagnostics.

The CL1 models are available in two basic versions and also as hybrid electric or natural gas-powered models. The Aebi Schmidt Ibérica team will be happy to provide you with further information at any time.
