Crane World Asia called on the team at Terex Cranes to manufacture 15 customized flat top tower cranes for the Singapore market.

The new Terex CTT 541-24 flat top tower cranes are explicitly designed for the needs of contractors in Singapore, adhering to government regulations that restrict crane jobs from extending beyond a site’s boundaries.

The Terex CTT 541-24 flat top tower crane has a compact counterjib that is only 16.5m long and a maximum jib length of 55m, while maximum free-standing height is 40m to comply with local regulations. The crane’s load chart has been engineered with input from the team at Crane World Asia, so it can efficiently lift heavy loads into place, including prefabricated bathroom units that can weigh as much as 22t and are commonly used when constructing residential flats.

In addition, Terex designed the CTT 541-24 crane to use H20 masts, instead of HD23 masts because many Singapore companies already have the smaller sized masts in their equipment inventory.

Roger Poon, the director at Crane World Asia, commented: “It’s attention to details like this one that also helps reduce our expenses. We don’t have to invest in new masts sections to utilize these new cranes.”

According to Poon, Terex Cranes is a great partner because they can adapt quality cranes for specific regional needs. 

The new Terex CTT 541-24 flat top tower cranes will be delivered in early 2019 and are available through Crane World Asia.
