Potain’s MDT 219 has the highest capacity of all models in the MDT CCS City tower crane range, making it ideal for all types of complex projects in North America.
Potain said that its MDT 219 has faster setup and configuration, enhanced operator controls and simplified maintenance and monitoring functions over previous generation tower cranes, says Jean-Noel Daguin, senior vice president of Potain tower cranes.

In addition to the MDT 219, the MDT CCS City range includes the MDT 109, MDT 139, and MDT 189, all of which are updated versions of previous MDT City cranes. They range in working radius from 55m to 65m, and the maximum lifting capacities range from 6tonne to 10tonne.
“The MDT CCS City cranes allow complex multi-crane installations by considerably reducing the height gaps and interference of cranes on work sites,” explained Daguin. “And with CCS, it takes no more than 15 minutes to commission the crane on the job site, increasing productivity and getting the crane to work faster.”
All Potain MDT and MD range cranes will use the same cab and control systems, making them easier to commission, operate and maintain.
There is also an integrated diagnostics tool for easy monitoring of crane settings, operations and service maintenance, saving costs and reducing downtime. The system also features a remote function, CraneSTAR Diag, which allows technicians to monitor the crane from a distance and in real time.
