Raimondi to Unveil Terex TRT 55US at CONEXPO 2026

11 Feb 2026 CW Team

Raimondi Group is set to present the Terex TRT 55US rough terrain crane at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026, marking the first product launch under the newly established Raimondi North America operations. Engineered specifically for North American operational, regulatory and environmental requirements, the new model reflects the Group’s strategic expansion in the US market.

Developed in Italy by the Terex Rough Terrain engineering team and shaped by customer insights from the American market, the 55-tonne crane builds on Terex’s proven rough terrain platform, now fully integrated into the Raimondi portfolio. The model features a compact transport-friendly design, an additional jib configuration and a redesigned operator environment to enhance precision, performance and long-cycle efficiency.

The TRT 55US offers a 55-tonne lifting capacity and a maximum jib length of 122.7 ft, supported by three telescoping boom modes, including the Proportional Telescoping Boom mode, a hallmark of Terex Rough Terrain cranes designed to simplify operator workflows. With a maximum tip height of 130 ft on the main boom, the crane can be equipped with a 26.25 ft jib, extending the tip height to 157.5 ft for demanding lifting applications.

Key advancements include optimised off-road mobility, improved load chart performance across the working radius and enhanced stability through upgraded control and monitoring systems. Advanced technologies such as TEOS, T-Link and IdeaLift further improve operational efficiency and jobsite versatility through asymmetric outrigger use.

The launch will be a central highlight of Raimondi Group’s presence at the exhibition, where the company will showcase its consolidated lifting ranges for the first time, reinforcing its technical and industrial expansion following the integration of Terex’s rough terrain crane business.
