 Tadano Mantis is putting the final touches using a new 130-ton capacity telescopiccrawler crane which is to be shown the first time at ConExpo 2014 in Nevada. The modern GTC�\1200 will be the largest capacity crawler in the Tadano Mantis product range and ��represents the 1st blank sheet design since Mantis was acquired by Tadano in 2008,�� in accordance with Ed Hisrich, vp, sales and customer support.

As you move the crane design was managed with the Tadano Mantis engineering team in Franklin, TN, the GTC-1200 can be a collaboration with the engineering teams of Tadano LTD and Tadano Faun Gmbh. It utilizes the strengths of every group and Tadano Mantis��s core competencies, the company said.

��By making use of the worldwide synergies one of several Tadano Group Companies to take this new design to completion, were bringing forth the best and strongest crane we’ve got ever introduced,�� he said. ��The idea behind the creation of the GTC�\1200 were to design and build a telescopic boom crawler crane that met the prerequisites of the growing Tadano Mantis core markets of power transmission, bridge and civil, and foundation construction while expanding the broader benefit of the crane toward lift crane based markets.��

The model GTC-1200 represents one step forward in design for Tadano Mantis, including the whole power round boom with two extension modes, HELLO�\NET telematics, the Tadano AML�\C load moment system, and integration of hydraulic cylinders, winches, and jib systems on the other Tadano Group companies.

The GTC�\1200 is powered by way of a Cummins Tier 4f, QSL9 diesel rated 350 hp (261 kW) @ 2100 rpm. The load sensing, power controlled hydraulic system optimizes the hydraulic output to the diesel power output for highly efficient operation and control; the swing system is controlled by the separate closed loop hydrostatic transmission for superior swing performance. The travel system features 2�\speed track drives with maximum speeds of just one.6 mph (2.6 km/h) plus a maximum unladen gradability of 52 percent.

The entire power, 5�\section 42.1 foot �C 155 foot (12.8m �C 47.2m) boom function is to do well for lift work, whilst being capable of out�\of�\level, pick�\and�\carry, and foundation work. The leading boom is complimented using a jib system that includes a 12.5 foot (3.8m) heavy lift jib using a maximum capacity of 44 tons, (39.9t) and that is perhaps the standard bi�\fold jib that has lengths of 33.9 feet / 59 feet (10.3m / 18m). There are also optional 23 foot (7m) lattice insert (max 2) sections. Your entire jib system can offset at 0��, 20��, and 40��, and once fully erected, offers a maximum tip height of 269 feet (82m).
