New record for XGC88000
A 4,000 tonne capacity class crawler crane from XCMG has broken a lifting record at a coal liquefaction project in Shenhua Ningxia, China. The XGC88000 heavy lift lattice boom crawler, built in China, lifted a Fischer-Tropsch oil synthesis reactor into place. The reactor had a diameter of 9.6 m and a height of 54.4 m. It weighed 2,155 tonnes and took 2.5 hours to install into position.
