Link Belt launches TCC750 attachments

Link Belt has announced attachments for its 70 tonne TCC-750 telescopic crawler along with other new product announcements at its North American launch last week.

One of those new options is the Pengo hydraulic powered earth auger which comes in two sizes: the RT-15 with a 17.8 cubic inch/293 cc motor and 15,478 ft/lbs (20 985.3 Nm) of torque, and the RT-20 with an 11.9 cubic inch/195 cc motor and 22,662 ft/lbs (30 725.5 Nm) of torque. Also

Another option is an aerial work platform attachment. The TCC-750 sports a 35 metre main boom, providing a maximum tip height of 36.7 metre tip height. US crane rental company ALL Erection Crane Rental recently ordered 10 TCC750 for its fleet.

“This model has gotten a lot of attention. Our customers are really interested in a reliable telecrawler. We’re sold well out into 2010,” said Pat Collins, Link-Belt’s senior lattice boom product manager who is also responsible for the 750. “The new options we’ve added will expand our telecrawler base.”

Link Belt also announced a 544 tonne Super Lift option for its 548 crawler crane launched at Conexpo. The attachment includes a supermast, supermast and telescopic tray, and supermast with wagon attachment. It is currently undergoing testing on the test pad in Saijo, Japan.

Another new attachment for the 548 is a 7.6 metre auxiliary offset top, designed for heavy lifts where additional load-to-boom clearance is required such as vessel placement and wind energy applications.

Finally Link Belt also announced the 120 tonne HTC-3140 truck crane with five section 49.3 metre boom. The crane follows the launch of the six section – 59.4 metre Long Boom model the HTC-3140LB.

The five-section model offers more transportation alternatives when the reach of the LB is unnecessary. Both booms have five boom modes for improved lift capacities and can telescope a load. Both boom options offer a three metre heavy-lift fly with 22.6 tonnes capacity and can perform a single lift with two load lines. The heavy lift fly is integrated with the optional three-piece, bi-fold lattice swingaway and three 5.5 metre extensions which take the tip height to 94.7 metres.

The fly also offsets hydraulically or manually from two to 45 degrees. “Being the biggest truck crane available, the 3140 solidifies Link-Belt’s dominance of the truck crane market,” said Rick Curnutte, Link-Belt telescopic crane product manager.
