Zoomlion is celebrating a successful visit to INTERMAT after selling both the tower crane and the crawler crane that it brought to the show. The T320-16 tower crane has been sold to Germany rental company Streif Baulogistik, which operates a fleet of hundreds of cranes in Germany and Poland. The T320-16 combines Chinese and European know-how, as it features technology from Jost. Dutch end-user Crane House has brought the Zoomlion QUY 80 crawler crane. Zoomlion chief operating officer Delfino Corti said that

Effer is extending its product range with the addition of the new 525 models. Aimed at the medium-large capacity class, the 525 models are said to offer the best power-to-weight ratio in their class. High lift capacity is claimed due to the use of new materials, which help boost structural strength. Sophisticated electronics help deliver precise operation as well as high operating speeds. According to Effer, the advanced electronics used in the Progress control package maximise working efficiency. At INTERM

Kobelco used INTERMAT for the European introduction of its G series CKE range of crawler cranes –displaying the CKE2500G and the CKE800G, with lifting capacities of 250tonnes and 80tonnes respectively. Both benefit from lower fuel consumption of up to 25% partly attributed to their Stage IIIB engines having an auto idle stop (which cuts the engine if it is idling and automatically re-starts it as soon as a control is touched) and the G Winch that retains its winching speed even if the engine revs are reduce

Sennebogen’s three machines on display at Intermat 2012 have been chosen by the company to represent its crane, lifting and industrial material handling technology.

Terex Cranes is using Intermat as the launch venue for its new Challenger 3160 all-terrain crane.

Nylacast will be exhibiting its health and safety feature enhanced Nylacast Bigfoot, said to be the construction industry leading crane outrigger pad, at Intermat 2012.

The 100tonnes capacity class Roadmaster 5300 Truck Mounted Crane is said by Terex to have an innovative superstructure and outrigger frame which allows it to be mounted on a commercially-built, rather than a custom, five-axle truck chassis.

Xuzhou Heavy Machinery Company, known as XCMG, says its fourth-generation XCT30 on show at INTERMAT 2012 marks a “new level” of the firm’s truck crane manufacturing.

Zoomlion is now offering a novel new tower crane model that complies will all CE requirements. This is the first crane model Zoomlion has developed following its acquisition of a German specialist in 2011. Lifting capacity is said to be good for this class of machine, which offers high performance and productivity and also comes with an array of safety features. The crane structure is said to be extremely strong and able to cope with repeated load cycles, allowing a long working life.

The Zoomlion HCC-80 is the latest edition to its crawler crane range. Weighing in at 72.5tonnes, GCS says the HCC-80 is easy to transport, and is among the first in the industry to meet ANSI standards for safe operation. The crane is also said to be ideal for general construction, bridgework and pile driving applications, as well as oil refinery and power plant work.
