Loader crane manufacturer Hiab has launched four new models in its eX.HiPro light and medium series.

The new models are Hiab eX.142 HiPro, plus the 162, 192 and 232 versions, all of which are available in different configurations.

Efficiency is a key element of the new models. Hiab claims energy savings of up to 30 per cent thanks to the new hydraulic system. It is a pressure-compensated and load-sensing system optimised for high oil flow.

On a diesel truck the Dynamic RPM and Automatic Start/Stop functions further improve fuel efficiency for minimal environmental impact.

Latest technology

Future-proofing includes compatibility with electric trucks and other vehicles.

The eX.HiPro models have the SpaceEvo control system, combined with the Olsbergs V200 valve and PFD function for smooth simultaneous movements.

Commenting on the new models Barry McGrane, Hiab SVP light and medium loader cranes, said, “With our customers’ needs in mind, we created the Hiab eX.HiPro loader crane range to offer a leading market performance, substantial energy efficiency savings, superior capacity, speed and precision.”

Confidence in the product’s robustness and quality is backed by a five year warranty on the steel structure and two years (three as option) on all other parts.

Optional features include variable pump flow and crane tip control to add to the crane’s versatility.
