Zoomlion launches 3,200 tonne crawler crane

On 28 May Chinese manufacturer Zoomlion launched a 3,200 tonne capacity twin lattice boom crawler crane.

The ZCC3200NP has a maximum load moment rating of 82,000 tonne-metres, Zoomlion said. It is designed to work on the construction of China's third generation CAP 1400 nuclear power stations. In addition to the main crawler tracks, another pair support the rear counterweight wagon. The manufacturer claims more than 20 patents on the ZCC3200NP, including Parallel Closed Control System and Multiple Engine Power Unit.

Benefits of the design improve overall stability, anti-rollover capacity and safety, according to the manufacturer.
