Where normal (de-)construction vehicles have only one arm, the ASTACO (Advanced System with Twin Arm for Complex Operation) has two!
That way, it can handle a big variety of tasks, like gripping, pulling, cutting, bending very heavy things and more.
For that reason, it's used for things like recycling building materials, handling hazardous materials and disaster relief.
