What Happened
At GALABAU 2026 in Nuremberg, running from 15 to 18 September in Hall 6, Stand 6-329, Henne Nutzfahrzeuge is presenting together with Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks and the Unimog ExpertPartners MULAG and Bucher Municipal. The display centres on two vehicles that show the Unimog's versatility as an implement carrier. The stated aim is to demonstrate the vehicle's suitability for a wide range of municipal tasks throughout the year, from green space maintenance to winter service.
260 kW (354 hp)
The displayed U 535 has a 3,350 mm wheelbase, a mowing door and the switchable hydrostatic drive system EasyDrive.
- Combination boom with a telescopic boom giving a reach of up to seven metres
- Fitted with an edge-strip mower and an MK 1200 mowing head
- Designed for efficient roadside operation, including maintaining steep embankments and clearance work
- Two integrated telescopic sections give a reach of up to 9.5 metres
- Dual telescopic design retracts into a very compact configuration for work close to the roadside
- Fitted with an AMK 1200 mowing head
- Integrated grass collection uses a suction hose to transport cut material from the mowing head into a towed collection trailer
For winter maintenance, Bucher Municipal is presenting a Unimog U 219, the smallest model in the Unimog range, which the company says offers exceptional manoeuvrability and is particularly well suited to urban operations. Bucher Municipal has equipped the vehicle with a Unix LN30u V-plough and a Yeti W16 spreader. Together, the combination is intended to enable efficient and versatile snow clearance as well as precise spreading operations in municipal environments.
- Snow plough width of 3,050 mm, configurable as a V-plough, scoop plough or side plough
- Neoprene cutting edge helps protect road surfaces and operates comparatively quietly
- Optional dual cutting-edge system engages a steel cutting edge during operation for more aggressive clearing tasks
- Yeti W16 spreader offers 1.6 m³ dry material capacity and 640 litres of brine, and is designed for FS30 operation
- Spreading disc provides variable spreading widths ranging from two to eight metres
Why this matters
The showcase is aimed at municipal and public works fleets.
