Size matters

The GR1200XL-2 has a lifting capacity of 120t and sits at the core of Tadano’s large rough terrain line-up, and features the industry’s longest boom and jib combinations. The main features include a six-section formed boom of 56.0m. It is complemented with a 10.1–17.7m jib and sits on a compact two-axle carrier.

Considered the “new generation of rough terrain cranes”, Tadano aims to expand the GR series rough terrain crane line-up that now includes seven models ranging from 15–160t. These cranes can be used in the energy, petrochemical and construction sectors, and Tadano’s customer base of large fleet owners recognises the GR series as being the lowest-cost rough terrain cranes to own and operate.

“We are particularly eager to unveil this new crane at ConExpo that fills the gap between our popular and market leading GR1000XL and GR1600XL models,” says Ingo Schiller, incoming president of Tadano America.

“Tadano continues to lead the rough terrain crane market by building high-quality cranes that have the lifting performance and ease of transport that our customers need.”

Other features include Tadano’s Load Moment Indicator (AML-C) with full, on-board diagnostics; Cummins powered Tier IV compliant QSB6.7 direct-injection engine; multiple tie-off points; and safe access and egress points.

The 121t ATF110G-5 has been upgraded to provide new and enhanced features, such as multiple counterweight configurations for ease of transport and the new AML-F load-moment system that also includes full on-board diagnostics.

The ATF110G has a five section formed boom and a jib configuration ranging from 3.8–32.0m. The jib includes an integrated heavy-lift jib.

“The former ATF110-G-5 was one our most popular cranes,” says Mark Krajci, all terrain crane product manager. “We have been looking forward to the new model introduction and the improved ability to work and transport the machine in multiple counterweight configurations.”

Additional features include asymmetrical outrigger set-up; an exclusive lift-release adjuster safety system that provides radius correction for boom deflection under load; main and auxiliary drum and front-mounted driver-cab cameras; cost-effective flat-front driver-cab glass; and a quickly removable hose reel with stand.

Tadano will be also be displaying five units from its full line of rough terrain and all terrain cranes.

The GR150XL ORI has been upgraded to include additional ground clearance and offer a more aggressive tire tread for better offroad performance. This rough terrain crane can be used in confined spaces and petrochemical or refinery applications. The six-section full power synchronised telescoping 23.8m boom is complemented by either 3.6m or 5.5m two-staged offsettable jib.

The GR1000XL is equipped with a long 47.0m five-section boom and a 33.2m bi-fold jib. Additional features include Tadano’s operator friendly AML system with on-board diagnostics, asymmetrical outriggers and Hello-Net telematics.

The three-axle GR1600XL was originally equipped with a 61.3m boom and a two-stage, bi-fold lattice hydraulic tilt jib, Tadano now offers two optional 7.0m inserts that extend the jib to 32.0m, achieving a lifting height of 92.2m.

The GR1600XL can be simple and easy to transport thanks to a self-removable counterweight, and front and rear outriggers.

The ATF70G-4 has a lifting capacity of 77t with a 52.0m-long boom crane, which comes with a 1.6m–16.0m jib. This four-axle crane is equipped with Tadano’s exclusive lift-release adjuster system, asymmetrical outriggers and two engine design.

The ATF400G-6 has a lifting capacity of 450t and a key feature is the lifting strength of the five-section 60.0m boom. The superior load charts out-perform competitive cranes that require expensive and time-consuming heavy-lifting systems. Equipped with the optional luffing jib, it can reach a maximum tip height of 121.9m.

An optional power lift system is also available for increased capacities.
