Tadano launches all-terrain crane line with 75 tonne lifting capacity

09 Aug 2021 CW Team

Tadano, a Mobile crane manufacturer, introduced an upgraded four-axle all-terrain crane line with a lifting capacity of 75 tonne and two boom lengths. The new AC 4.070L-1 and AC 4.070-1 feature multifunctional crane controls and a new carrier cab.

The 171 feet six-section main boom can lift 12,786 pounds at full length. The lifting capacity has been enhanced further for steep main boom positions with small radii, and a 144-foot main boom is available as an option.

The main boom's extension can be utilised with manual or stepless hydraulic adjustments from 0 to 40 degrees to overcome several obstacles with a length of 29.5 to 52.5 feet. The larger total lifting capacity changes in line with all radii constantly, and on the opposite side of the double swing-away jib on the boom, an additional 5.9-foot runner can be mounted.

The AML-F crane control system and asymmetrical outrigger settings of the Tadano make the work of setting up and positioning quick. The automatic lifting capacity selection function makes it easier for crane operators, and the crane chooses the optimal extension sequence for each radius by itself. Additionally, the Tadano lift adjuster decreases the load swinging during lifting and loading.

The counterweight can be subdivided and configured accurately to meet various axle load limits for roading. The crane can comply with the 11 ton axle load limit without the main boom extension and with 9,700 pounds of counterweight that is becoming more common in the US.

The crane can travel with up to 26,900 pounds of counterweight for roads and bridges with a 13-ton axle load limit. The crane's configurable axle load limits go up to 36,376 pounds on the top end.
