MDT 389 L12

• When Implenia needed cranes for a complex construction project in western Lausanne, Switzerland, Potain dealer Stirnimann offered a holistic and tailored approach to meet the demands of the site.
• The solution involved one Potain MDT 308 and three MDT 389 top-slewing tower cranes to lift materials for buildings up to 80 m in height close to the railway line.
• Stirnimann’s longstanding expertise and dedication to customer service ensured a seamless process for the design and assembly of the cranes.

• With conventional crane solutions off the table for a variety of reasons, restoration of the historic Minneapolis Third Avenue bridge called for an innovative new approach. 
• Potain MDT topless cranes were built into the piers of the bridge, as traditional anchoring solutions would have required too much space.
• The solution is working so well that the contractors plan to take it into consideration right from the start of future bridge projects — even where more typical solutions would fit.

Eight Potain MDT 389 top slewing cranes are pouring the concrete and assembling prefabricated elements for all the buildings on the site of the new Servier Paris-Saclay Research Institute in France.
