Bluelift's 22 m compact spider

Italian manufacturer Bluelift will show the Bluelift C22/11 at Bauma for the first time. The new machine offers a 22 m working height but is lightweight and compact enough to be transported by a trailer pulled by a 4 by 4 vehicle.

The 3-ton C22/11 has a maximum outreach of 11m, with a 200 kg payload. The 110° moveable jib and the ± 80° basket rotation add flexibility. The travelling height is 1.98 m and the length is 5.2 m, although the detachable basket makes it possible to reduce the length to 4.5m; thechassis is 0.9 m wide. The compact dimensions allow access to restricted spaces and through standard doorways. Bluelift says, "This is the most compact 22m spider-lift around."

Other notable features include: the adjustable track width for higher ground clearance and improved stability on rough terrain; auto-leveling outriggers with three different set-up positions, for optimal set up and radio remote control.
