PALFINGER, during The Utility Expo in Louisville, Kentucky, unveiled two new additions to its bucket truck lineup: the PB 41 AT and PB 30 T. Designed and assembled in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, both models bring enhanced performance and operator-focused features.

“The Utility Expo is the ideal venue where we hear directly from our customers and partners. Their feedback helps drive our innovation,” said Ismael Daneluz, PALFINGER vice president, sales and service for North and Latin America. “The addition of PB 41 AT and PB 30 T strengthens PALFINGER’s bucket truck portfolio and reflects our strategy to offer a complete range of solutions in North America, supported by a service infrastructure.”

The PB 41 AT is built for demanding line construction and material handling applications. It offers a minimum of 700-pound lifting capacity from any position, a 46-foot working height, and single-hand proportional upper controls. Features such as hydraulic platform leveling, a 90-degree bucket rotator, adjustable boom wear pads, replaceable pin bushings, and powder coating help maximize uptime and extend service life.

The PB 30 T provides dependable performance with simplified operation. Designed for speed, it delivers a 35-foot working height, 350-pound platform capacity, and 390-degree non-continuous rotation. It also features a low bucket entry point at just 1 foot 4 inches, making access faster, safer, and more comfortable for operators. Additional features include speed-adjustable upper controls with start/stop functionality, and rapid boom movements for quick positioning.

Built with maximum serviceability and reduced maintenance downtime in mind, the PB 41 AT and PB 30 T bucket trucks offer long-term reliability and a cost-effective investment for utility fleets.

“With the PB 41 AT and PB 30 T, we’re broadening our bucket truck offerings to meet a broader range of customer needs, from insulated and non-insulated heavy-lift performance to straightforward, value-driven solutions,” added Brian Heffron, PALFINGER North America vice president sales, Aerial Work, Platforms and Service Cranes. “It’s about giving customers the right equipment for the job, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
