Monster machinery: started production of all-terrain crane DEMAG

It is called the compact sectional crane of similar capacity and lift height

One of the largest and oldest manufacturers of construction equipment – the American company “Terex Corporation” announced the beginning of serial production chestionare all terrain crane model DEMAG AC 300-6 with a nominal capacity of 350 tons and a maximum main boom length of 80 meters (with extenders up to 118 m).

With the ability to reach a maximum speed of 85 km/h, this mastodon among lifting equipment, capable of operating on gradients in 63%, and with 12 multi-turn wheels, with its length of 17.32 m it has a turning radius of 13 and 55 m, which provides the opportunity to exploit such a powerful crane even in the city.

In the “chest” of his “beats” 577-strong powerful “heart”, the operation of which is controlled by a patented system Demag IC-1 Plus. It gives the technique the ability in real time to calculate the safe load capacity, and enables the use of asymmetric positioning of the outriggers. And smart, controlling the efficiency of the crane, the system “start-stop” gives the opportunity to minimize downtime, reduce fuel consumption and reduce engine hours.

The crane can be configured by the manufacturer to fit the individual needs of the customer. So, I have two possible modifications of the wheel base – 12 x 6 x 10 x 8 and 12 x 12. Also, depending on the legislative norms of the region may change the maximum axle load, which, by the way, are displayed on the dashboard of the operator.

With power steering and understeer control rear axles depending on the speed tap AC 300-6 has a high resistance, unmatched maneuverability and high traffic. Factor offering ease of maintenance of equipment is the compatibility of many of its components and assemblies with parts pationic cranes.

To date, this lifting equipment can rightly be called the most compact sectional crane of similar capacity and lift height.
