Prototype information: Menck & Hambrock was founded in 1868 in Northern Germany by Adolf Menck and Diedrich Alexander Hambrock, and over a longer period it was one of the most significant European manufacturers of power shovels. As early as 1869 the company introduced their first developments. The company’s heyday started in 1891 with the construction of steam-powered cranes. The first bucket power shovel was developed in 1904. Menck shipped the first crawler power shovels in 1922. In 1978, the history of the Menck power shovels came to an end. Many thousands of power shovels had been produced, some of which are still performing their extraordinary services. Menck M 75 The M 75 was introduced in 1949. As the first power shovel in some parts it introduced the later visual form of all Menck power shovels. The M 75 was offered on the market until the mid 1950’s. Its performance range was then handled by the newly-developed types M 60 and M 90.
