The new model, designated the 150TP, uses a telescoping boom rather than a scissor stack, making it similar to a number of machines built in Japan by the likes of Tadano and Aichi.

The new model appears to offer a 13 metre platform height, a 6.5 metre long extended platform and 1,000 kg maximum lift capacity.

Another surprise was found on the Zoom Lion stand, this Chinese equipment manufacturer that had been dipping its toe in the European waters with its tower cranes, has turned up with a new 70 tonne truck crane.
