Buy second-hand specialist machinery for construction, workshops and industry – directly from specialist dealers. Not every machine fits into a standard category: material-handling excavators with grapples, mounted sweepers, sandblasting and vacuum equipment, induction tools for loosening rusted-fast bolts, vehicle lifts, and tile cutters for the building site. Here, Kraus Baumaschinen from Frankenthal and GSK Baumaschinen from Hanhofen bring together equipment that’s hard to come by – with the year of manufacture, operating hours and a description included in each listing. If you’re looking for something specific, you’ll find it here or you can ask us.
What you’ll find here
Material-handling and specialised excavators: Terex Fuchs F118R material-handling excavator with grapple for scrap, timber and recycling – high cab, long reach, hydraulics for grapple and magnet.
Mounted sweepers: Tuchel Plus 590 for wheel loaders, forklifts and tractors – courtyards, halls, construction site access roads, winter maintenance with sweeping roller and collection hopper.
Blasting and vacuum technology: Munkebo MB-750E4 vacuum unit/abrasive recovery system, Clemco sandblasting machines – rust removal, paint stripping, façades; suitable compressed air supplied by construction compressors; the equivalent system without abrasive can be found under dry ice blasting machines.
Workshop and industrial equipment: Thumm JE3 induction heater (contactless heating of bolts and nuts, without an open flame), Zippo 5205 lifting platform for vehicle workshops and vehicle fleets, Norton Clipper CK24L tile cutter.
What we look for in specialised machinery
Ask for a demonstration: With specialised equipment, there are no standard market prices and few points of comparison – a demonstration under load (grapple on a material-handling excavator, sweeping drum in operation, lifting platform with a vehicle on it) is the only reliable benchmark.
Spare parts and service: Ask whether the manufacturer still supplies parts and who services the machine. A cheap material-handling excavator without a spare parts supply ends up being expensive.
Interfaces: Attachments (sweeper, grab) require the correct mounting and hydraulics on the carrier machine – clarify oil flow, pressure and control circuits.
Documentation: CE marking, declaration of conformity, operating instructions; annual inspection of lifting platforms in accordance with BetrSichV, excavators and lifting equipment in accordance with DGUV; blasting equipment with pressure vessel inspection.
Dealers
Kraus Baumaschinen in Frankenthal stocks equipment here from trade-ins and business liquidations – inspected, with photos and descriptions; GSK Baumaschinen in Hanhofen supplements this with specialised equipment from its own stock. Prices are usually on request – enquire stating the intended use, and you’ll receive an honest assessment of whether the machine is suitable.
Frequently asked questions about specialised machinery
How do I find out the price of a specialised machine?
Based on the year of manufacture, hours worked, condition and the manufacturer’s original price – and by comparing it with the closest standard machine. With us, you can enquire directly via the advert; the dealer will provide the price and background details of the machine.
I’m looking for a machine that isn’t listed here – what should I do?
Write to us via the contact form or at info@machinery-market.eu, stating the machine type, intended use and budget. Our dealers handle many machines that aren’t advertised and will enquire within their network.
Can I get spare parts for specialised machinery?
For brand-name manufacturers (Terex Fuchs, Tuchel, Clemco, Zippo), yes – often for decades. For small-batch production and discontinued models, check in advance – the dealer will know where to source the parts.
Can I lease specialised machinery or finance it via hire purchase?
For many listings, you can submit a non-binding leasing or hire-purchase enquiry directly. You can discuss the terms with the dealer or their finance partner; the purchase and payment are handled directly between you and the seller.
