• The versatility and maneuverability of the Grove RT550E rough-terrain crane suit a wide range of tasks around the marina, which lies on the Bay of Lübeck in Germany.
• Because the crane handles high-value yachts, its tight turning radius and CCS control system ensure faultless operation.
• At 39 m and 45 t, the Grove RT550E has the longest boom and highest capacity in its class.

• Manitowoc will be displaying the Grove GMK5150XL and Grove GMK5120L for the first time at an exhibition.
• Both cranes set new standards for strength and reach, pushing the envelope of what’s possible for a five-axle all-terrain crane. 

• Legacy 275-USt crawler gains productivity updates drawn from the successful MLC range; boom length and load charts remain unchanged from the 999.
• Manitowoc’s Crane Control System (CCS) offers a user-friendly interface, full graphic display, and intuitive controls.
• A wider cab, with up to 20° tilt, and ample access to service compartments improve ergonomics for operators and techs.

• Léon Gosse, client de longue date de Potain, a déployé deux grues à flèche relevable MR 295 pour participer à la construction de la nouvelle tour Mirabeau sur le front de mer de Marseille.
• L'entrepreneur français a choisi les grues Potain pour leur format compact, leur fiabilité éprouvée et leur efficacité dans le processus de construction requis sur ce chantier.

• A Grove GMK5250XL-1 and GMK5250L teamed up to lift precast concrete beams for a new parking garage at the offices of a major online retailer in Bamberg, Germany.
