Four Tadano Mantis telescopic crawler cranes
25 January 2010
Crane manufacturer Tadano has announced four Mantis telescopic boom crawler cranes in 27, 40, 70 and 90 tonne capacities. The USA-built cranes are aimed at global markets.
Features include heavy duty telescopic booms, compact dimensions and extendable crawlers. They allow a Mantis crane to get closer to a job than either lattice boom crawlers with fixed boom length or wheeled mobile cranes with outriggers.
The range starts with the 27 tonne capacity GTC-300EX with 24.4 m boom and maximum 12.2 m jib. Next is the 40 tonne capacity GTC-400EX with 32 m boom and 15.2 m maximum jib, followed byt the 70 tonne capacity GTC-700EX with 34 m boom and 15.2 m maximum jib. Topping the range is the GTC-900EX with 39 m boom and 18.3 m maximum jib.
