Manitowoc to showcase Grove, National Crane products at ICUEE 2017
Manitowoc Cranes will showcase a trio of cranes that thrive in utilities applications at the International Construction and Utility Equipment Exposition 2017 (ICUEE). At outdoor booth N2021, the company will highlight the Grove GHC30 telescoping crawler crane and a pair of National Crane boom trucks: the NBT45-1 and 890D. All three machines will be outfitted with special attachments to better show their effectiveness in the utilities market, and two of them ? the GHC30 and NBT45-1 ? will be shown at ICUEE for the first time.
The GHC30 is Manitowoc?s newest addition to its line of Grove telescoping crawler cranes. The 30 USt crane is the smallest member of the GHC range and offers the same 100 per cent pick-and-carry function as the rest of the line. With its full-power, three-section 83 ft telescoping boom, operators can easily handle a variety of lifts at various radii without setting up on outriggers like traditional hydraulic boom cranes. This saves time on the job and provides a better return on investment for the customer.
The National Crane NBT45-1 will also be at Manitowoc?s booth. The 45 USt boom truck sports a 142 ft boom and is well-suited to the utility sector, where energy work on de-energised power lines and new transmission infrastructure construction often requires the use of both a crane and an aerial lift. The model on show at ICUEE will be equipped with a two-person, 1,200 lb maximum-capacity, quick-attach yoke platform with wireless radio remote control. Also representing the National Crane line at ICUEE is the 890D boom truck, which will be equipped with an optional auger attachment on its 90 ft boom. With its two-speed auger, the 23 USt 890D boasts 14,000 lb-ft of torque and a 39-ft maximum digging radius. The boom truck can also be supplied with various flighting options that range up to 48 inches. The 890D?s capability for both lifting and high-torque digging makes it suitable for a wide range of utility work.
This year?s ICUEE will be held in Louisville, Kentucky, at the Kentucky Exposition Center from October 3 to 5, and more than 950 leading manufacturers will participate.
