Chinese construction equipment manufacturer Sunward is showing new crawler, truck and rough terrain cranes at the BICES show in October.

The 55 tonne capacity rough terrain and the 55 tonne capacity truck crane make their debut at the BICES construction equipment exhibition that runs in Beijing, China, from 18 to 21 October. The 50 tonne capacity telescopic boom crawler crane, pictured, is based on an excavator undercarriage.

The rough terrain has a 3B6 control system from Italy, Allison transmission and OMS drive axles. The truck crane complies with GB3847-2005 and GB17691-2005 engine emissions standards, Sunward said.
