Hybrid Boom Lift: Able To Work Indoors and Outdoors
The Genie Z-60/37FE boom lift can run off electric power or in a hybrid diesel-electric mode. When operating in “full electric” configuration, the boom creates no emissions and can be safely used indoors for a full day on a single charge. The diesel-electric hybrid setting allows the lift to operate for a full week on a single tank of diesel. The lift has a maximum working height of 66 ft, with 36 ft of horizontal reach and 24 ft of up-and-over clearance. The platform has a maximum payload capacity of 500 lb. Lift controls allow for the boom to be moved from full height to below grade with a single control. Genie, a Terex brand; www.genielift.com
All-Terrain Crane: Adaptable for On-Road Travel
The Grove GMK4100L-1 is a 100-ton all-terrain crane that is designed around over-the-road transportability. In transport mode, it has a load of less than 12 tons per axle and a travel counterweight of 6.7 tons. When using the 26.2-ton maximum counterweight, the GMK4100L-1 boasts a 6.9% improved load chart over the earlier GMK4100L model crane’s. When the counterweight is fully removed, the GMK4100L-1 has the lowest gross vehicle weight of any 100-ton, 60-meter-boom crane, according to the manufacturer. Manitowoc Cranes; www.manitowoc.com
