The jib has a capacity of 500kg and can be telescoped when under load, while the electric drive winch has a 1.5 tonne line pull. An optional work platform offers a maximum working height of 32 metres. The onboard battery allows for 140 lifting cycles, and recharges from a standard 230 volt outlet.

The new chassis design includes an improved outrigger setup with auto levelling and sensing, which also increases the working slope angle at the rear by 25 percent, while also providing greater ground clearance when stowed for transport. The outrigger set up includes auto levelling and monitoring.

The company said: “As a Böcker trailer crane of the NeXt generation, the battery powered crane combines uncompromising performance with sustainable drive technology and sets standards for demanding construction sites. With its hydraulically extendible jib, the electric 1.5 tonne winch, a revised chassis and optional additional ballasting, the new crane always utilises its performance potential - without compromising on range, payload or working speed.”
