A glimpse at Fauns new 220 tonner

Tadano Faun has provided the first photographs and details of its new ATF220G-5 All Terrain crane that we first reported on last October.

The new crane was shown at Tadano-Faun's second international distributors meeting in Lauf, Germany, earlier this month.

The ATF220G-5 features a seven section 68 metre boom, which uses a single cylinder extension system, allowing partial telescoping of loads. The cranes rating is at 2.5 metres over the rear, the three metre 360 rating is 182.5 tonnes.

As with most Tadano-Faun All Terrain models the new crane will boast impressive lift duties through the load chart. Examples given include 3.9 tonnes to 60 metres radius, over 30 tonnes at 20 metres and 10.6 tonnes to 40 metres.

The maximum lattice boom extension is 37 metres, which includes a 5.4 metre heavy duty jib that can offset by up to 40 degrees.

The carrier has an overall length of 15.1 metres with a three metre width and is powered by an eight cylinder Mercedes coupled to a ZF AS-Tronic transmission. The upper engine is a six cylinder Mercedes.

The crane has a 10x8x8 configuration, with the third axle lifting for crab steer while the rear two axles feature Faun’s electronic steering system that automatically shuts off at speeds of over 25 kph. 16.00 tyres are standard with 20.5’s as an option.
