Shuttlelift, the US manufacturer of carrydeck and gantry cranes, has taken over Pitman Manufacturing Company, which makes digger derricks (Pitman Polecats) and aerial work platforms for companies in the utilities sector.
Pitman’s manufacturing operations are to be moved from Duluth MN to Shuttlelift’s base in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin, but the Pitman brand name will be kept for the Pitman product line.
