MDT 109

• Potain dealer for the Rhône-Alpes region Valente Grue Assistance has assembled two Potain MDT 109 top-slewing tower cranes on France’s largest glacier, the Mer de Glace “Sea of Ice” near Chamonix in the French Alps.
• The respective cranes will be used to help construct a logistics base and a cable car station and, due to the remote location, had to be assembled by helicopter.
• In each instance, it took less than four days to carry out the entire operation, from the delivery of the elements to the commissioning of the cranes.

Contractor Totalbud S.A is using two Potain MDT 109 top-slewing cranes and one Igo T 70 A self-erecting crane to construct the Oszmiańska 20 apartment complex in Warsaw, Poland, on a tight schedule.
