Grove sales manager Holger Haber said: “Heavy lifting capacities, especially in daily use with up to 13.3 tonnes of counterweight on the crane with 12 tonne axle load or with up to 5.1 tonne counterweight on board with 10 tonne axle load, will enable very flexible and versatile applications and outstanding ranges in the future.”
The Ratekau, Lübeck, based company was founded in 1994 and offers crane rental, heavy haulage along with industrial installation and moving services. Its fleet now includes 13 mobile cranes with capacities from 30 to 300 tonnes as well as three large loader/articulating cranes topped by a 163 metre/tonne model.
