Grove RT set for Bauma debut

Grove has announced that it will launch a new 45 tonne Rough Terrain crane at Bauma in April next year.

The new crane, the RT550E, was shown to customers from France and Italy at Manitowoc group's Niella Tanaro facility in Italy, alongside the first 400 tonne GMK6400 All Terrain crane in Italy.

The RT550E has a five section, 39 metre main boom and features the Twin-Lock pinning system. An eight metre swingaway extension can be fitted with offsets from zero, 20 or 40 degrees. The crane weighs just under 29 tonnes.
