Grove GRT780 to make European and trade show debuts at bauma 2025
- The replacement for the RT770E and GRT880 is currently built in Shady Grove, Pa., U.S.; plans are underway to build the model in Niella Tanaro, Italy.
- It is the first Grove rough-terrain crane to offer the Grove CONNECT™ telematics system.
One of Manitowoc’s newest Grove rough-terrain cranes will be seen for the first time at a trade show – as well as for the first time anywhere in Europe – when the 80 t capacity Grove GRT780 is presented at bauma this April. The crane in Germany comes hot off the production line in Shady Grove, Pa., but it will also begin production at the European Grove facility in Niella Tanaro, Italy, in the coming months to serve both Europen and emerging markets.
The new crane will be one of the highlights at the booth and will replace the RT770E and the GRT880 in the Grove rough-terrain crane lineup. It delivers best-in-class boom length and strength with a five-section MEGAFORM™ full-power boom spanning 11.9 - 47.3 m. At full extension, it can handle loads of up to 8.16 t at working radii from 9 – 16 m, while a bi-fold swingaway jib extends reach to 67 m. It can achieve a maximum capacity of 715 kg when working at its maximum radius of 46 m. For pick-and-carry operations, this compact and highly maneuverable crane allows 15.2 t to be handled at 3.5 m with the boom fully retracted.
These impressive load charts are accompanied by other productivity-focused features, including the MAXbase™ variable outrigger system, a 12-in CCS 1+ touchscreen display, a wider full-vision tilting cab, and a new carrier design. Along with the GRT765, it is the first rough-terrain crane to offer Grove CONNECT™ telematics and fleet management, while the oCSI (on Crane Service Interface) further simplifies diagnostics and service capabilities.
The standard 7,938 kg of counterweight can be supplemented with an optional 1,360 kg for even greater strength, and either configuration is compatible with the optional hydraulic counterweight removal system for fast and straightforward self-assembly. Despite its more spacious cab, the overall width of the GRT780 is still around 300 mm narrower than competing cranes.
“The GRT780 is a great demonstration of the productivity, performance, and reliability advantages customers get with the latest generation of Grove rough-terrain cranes,” said Daniele Montanaro, product manager for rough-terrain cranes at Manitowoc. “We are looking forward to producing this model in our Niella Tanaro factory. It’s a great option for customers in both European and emerging markets equipped with the latest Cummins Stage V engine to support its impressive strength improvements while delivering cleaner, more efficient operation.”
