ACM Brisbane is doing lacing replacement and repairs for a Manitowoc crawler crane with a damaged boom top and insert, as well as a major inspection and repairs for a 50t truck crane and multiple self propelled elevated work platforms.
ACM has represented Kobelco since 2004. The companies have signed a new agreement through which ACM is the sole dealer and exclusive representative for Australia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea and all the countries in the Oceania region.
