Big Sarens on test
The 3,250 tonne capacity twin boom Sarens SG120 crane is now built, erected and on test.
The massive 120,000 tonne/metre heavy-lift ringer crane was photographed taking a 625 tonne test load out to 120 metres radius on its 130 metre main boom – a 125 percent overload test lift.

I have been invited to visit the new SGC-120 at the Ghent site.
I must say :this is an incredible machine: huge and massive! I took some great pictures in high resolution.
