Terex Cranes has implemented a new cab design for all new Demag all terrain cranes in the AC 55-3 to AC 300-6 series.

The biggest change in the cab, Terex explained, is the cockpit display in the superstructure cab. It used to be installed on the instrument panel but is now integrated into it so that the operator has a better view of the front right area while operating the crane. The display can also be tilted in order to avoid glare and reflections caused by direct sunlight.

To ensure that the re-engineered carrier and superstructure cabs will open and close even under extreme weather conditions, Terex said they have particularly sturdy mechanical lock systems. A central door locking system is available as an optional extra. Finally, the remote controls for the carrier and superstructure diesel auxiliary heaters are also new.all new Demag all terrain cranes in the AC 55-3 to AC 300-6 series.
