The project involved a lift of 171,000lbs at a 46ft radius, which the Japanese manufacturer said utilised over 90% of the cranes’ capacity. The crane was equipped with maximum.
Tadano said that the crane was then brought back to the Barcelona yard for two weeks of training with Tadano service technicians. Two of these technicians were from the Tadano Faun factory in Germany, where the ATF 400G-6 is manufactured.
Bob Steiner, president of Barcelona Equipment, said, "Barcelona Equipment plans to utilize this crane in HVAC, infrastructure projects, power industries, water treatment plants, commercial construction and any project that requires a versatile crane.
"The ATF 400G-6 exhibits an exceptionally strong main boom, a six-axle carrier and all wheel steering that provides tremendous mobility and easy set up. The steering has the ability to be switched from every position without having to move the crane into neutral."
Justin Steiner, sales manager of Barcelona Equipment, said, "We found that Tadano’s exclusive Safety Lift Adjuster was an asset, giving the operator of the crane extra confidence when lifting in critical conditions. If the crane lifts a heavy load in a small working area and the lift adjuster is activated, the crane will adjust itself to lift the load automatically.
