The MCT 275 is designed for easy transport and offers jib length configurations from 30 to 70 metres in increments of five metres. It has a maximum capacity of 10 tonnes and at its 70 metre jib tip, it can handle 2.3 tonnes. The cranes were initially erected in a freestanding configuration before climbing to a final working height of 150 metres. The cranes have been configured with 45 and 50 metre jibs to support lifting operations as construction has progresses. The MCT 275 is also available as a 12 tonne model, which can handle a maximum of 2.2 tonnes at its 70 metre jib tip.
Carrying out daily operations
Potain service director, Konstantin Guba said: “Maintaining crane availability on a complex project like Central Park Towers needs more than just reliable equipment; it depends on strong service support throughout. The Manitowoc team has been on the project from the start, handling erection and commissioning, then training the local team in maintenance and operation.”
When complete, the hotel will form part of the Central Park Towers project, a five star resort in central Tbilisi.
