Towable Potain Hup

Potain has launched the towable version of its new Hup M 28-22 self-erecting tower crane at the Dach + Holz exhibition in Germany.

Previewed as a concept machine at bauma, the M 28-22 features an integrated transport axle and is rated to speeds of 80km/h. It has a maximum capacity of 2.2 tonne and can handle 850kg at its 28 metre jib tip. Maximum hook height is 31 metres.

With an overall length of 11.6 metres and a travel height of 3.6 metres, the crane is suitable for road transport on a standard truck licence in Germany complete with its permanent ballast. Designed with the German home building, timber and roof markets in mind, the company claims it is the only self-erecting crane with a 28 metre jib that has such a compact transport format.
