These cranes are brand new and are avalable to rent immediately, they’re supported by Manitowoc Cranes USA.
The Potain MD-485-B is often a twenty (20) metric ton crane offering you a maximum rated capacity of 44,092 pounds. The 485 can be erected into a vertical freestanding height of 247 feet which enable it to be fitted with 262 feet of horizontal jib with a rated capacity with the jib tip of 6,834 pounds.
The MDT 178 is definitely an eight (8) metric ton tower crane supplying you with a maximum rated capacity of 17,637 pounds. The 178 might be erected to your vertical freestanding height of 176 feet using standard mast which enable it to be fitted with 197 feet of horizontal jib having a rated capacity at jib tip of 3307 pounds.
The turntable, cab and electrical control panel was designed to be one (1) pick, and weighs about 11,000 pounds, making what exactly is normally the critical pick within the erection/dismantle process very easy. The upper percentage of the crane goes together quickly a result of the deficit of a tower top and pendant bars which offer the jib and counter-jib. The counter-jib is attached with two (2) pins and the jib is that come with one (1) pin. And also to make things even easier, as the hoist drum is situated in the foot of the jib, it can be reeved and incapacitated ahead of the jib is lifted into place.
The two MDT 178 and MD485-B incorporates many design features helping to make the cranes very erector friendly. The MDT 178 tower crane may be used that has a portable concrete ballasted base or it is usually mounted inside a traditional concrete foundation. The ballasted base can be as tiny as 12�� 6�� square. The vertical mast in the crane is really a smaller version on the ��K�� mast utilized for the larger top slewing tower cranes. The beauty of this mast is always that it uses pinned connections rather then bolted connections. Pinned connections less complicated quicker to put together and they are maintenance free.
Once up and operational the operator will like what is being the nicest cab entirely on tower cranes today. The cab can be very big with ergonomic seating and controls and computerized indicators to support the operator. Yet another thing that both operator will appreciate is the variable frequency motors manipulating the hoist, swing and trolley functions.
Both Potain cranes are unique, extremely versatile, easy to assemble, low maintenance and operator friendly lifting solution for the medium to large sized construction projects.
