Novità

• Aparna Constructions and Estates trusts Potain cranes for their reliable performance and excellent return on investment

• An MD 485 top-slewing crane and an Igo T 85 A self-erecting crane were strategically positioned to reach the full Haverly Apartments jobsite.
• Both cranes were assembled in tight spaces and needed to offer a small footprint to fit on the jobsite without sacrificing reach. The solution: 
  o An MD 485 with ZX 6830 cross-base — impressive free-standing heights and small 19.7 sq ft footprint without requiring a poured foundation.

• In line with the French R.495 recommendation for all tower cranes above 30 m high to include a mast elevator, Potain developed the Cab-IN internal mast elevator for the 1.6 m, 2 m and 2.45 m Potain K-mast.

• Since the launch of the Grove GRT655 and GRT655L rough-terrain cranes in 2017, they have proven a popular model on jobsites around the world because of their flexibility.
• Manitowoc offers the 60 t rough-terrain crane with two boom versions for different applications: the GRT655 with 34.8 m boom for heavy duty applications and the GRT655L with 43 m long boom for those applications where reach is a must.
