Mini Cranes outreach increases,” he added.
Latest Models
Introduced about a year ago, the Jekko SPX328 mini crane has a maximum height of more than 56 feet and at the same time, when folded, is compact enough to pass through a standard single door. The model, designed with features for the rental industry, includes the Jekko Touch Experience, a user interface that displays a live load chart and stability area on the 10-inch touch screen display, which also includes tutorials for crane functions and operations without the need of Wi-Fi or Internet. An additional feature is Jekko Dynamic Pressure Control that allows for precise load handling and jerk free movement.
Lightweight and Maneuverable
Böcker’ s latest innovation is the AHK 36e, a fully electric mini crane featuring a newly developed electric winch that also recovers energy when the load is lowered and feeds it back into the battery.
“ Using a traditional truck crane would have required shutting down the street,” said Michael Gnazzo, president at Innovativ Hoisting.“ Instead, a roofing contractor working on a building in Boston that was bordered on one side by a busy street and on the other by a tight courtyard used a Böcker AHK 36 mini crane. With the crane’ s wireless remote control, they were able to drive the compact machine through the narrow courtyard, and thanks to its light weight over landscaped areas without causing damage.”
The Böcker AHK 36 is trailer-mounted and has a GVWR of only 9,980 pounds, meaning it is towable without needing a driver with a CDL. The mini crane can also be equipped with an optional personnel basket attachment that transforms the machine into a 95-foot boom lift.
