Manitowoc Mct 185 Topless Crane
Th e crane boasts an impressive 65 m jib, yet the entire upper works of the MCT 185 can travel in just five containers thanks to its intelligent, compact design. Each crane section benefi ts from minimized component dimensions and weight to simplify assembly, as demonstrated by the shorter, simpler ballast shape on the counter-jib. Th is section is available in two lengths – 13.5 m for use with a 30 m - 45 m jib, or 16 m for the 50 m - 65 m configuration. Th is choice in confi guration allows projects to plan crane positioning more efficiently, a useful feature as jobsites become more congested.
For assembly, users can choose from Potain’s existing 1.6 m (L46) and 2 m (L68) mast sections, both of which use pinned joints for fast, easy connection. Also available is the newly introduced 7.5 m-high S46JR reinforced basic mast for taller setup, with freestanding heights for the MCT 185 stretching up to 59.2 m.
