UNIC Cranes Europe has launched two new mini spider cranes featuring a telescoping luffing jib/searcher hook.
The new models build on the features of the existing URW-546-2 and URW-295-2 cranes, but feature four new attachments.
The new telescoping luffing jib/searcher hook of the URW-546-2 offers a maximum capacity of 850kg, and a jib extension range of 2.4m to 5.6m. It boasts a luffing range of -10° to 60° offsets and a max lifting height of the crane to 22.8m with a maximum working radius of 17m.
The telescoping luffing stub jib attachment can be installed with either a positive or negative offset to suit the lifting project, offering a maximum capacity of 850kg and a hydraulic extension range of 2.4m to 4m, a luffing range of -10° to 60° offsets and a max lifting height of the crane to 21.5m and working radius of 15.3m. When in the reversed position, UNIC revealed the lifting point can be positioned within 75mm of any obstacle.
The new heavy duty rhino hook attachment fits directly to the main boom head and has a maximum lifting capacity of 1,500kg.
Graeme Riley, CEO of UNIC Cranes Europe, said, “We have been working closely with UNIC Furukawa in Japan to develop the latest UNIC Cranes range in response to customer demand. Complimenting the existing fleet these new additions maintain unrivalled performance and reliability while introducing increased flexibility and usability for a diverse range of applications.
“By developing our popular pre-existing models, we have been able to harness the tried and tested ability of these market leading cranes. Customers can continue to lift with confidence with the familiar controls and reliability of the UNIC cranes range with the added versatility of an integrated hydraulic fly jib.”
The new UNIC URW-295-2 builds on the features of the URW-295 and introduces four attachments, enhancing its versatility for diverse lifting applications.
The new telescoping luffing jib/searcher hook offers a maximum capacity of 750kg, jib extension range of 1.2m to 2.8m, a luffing range of -10° to 60° offsets and a maximum lifting height of 12.5m and working radius of 8.7m.
The URW-546-2 and URW-295-2 are both equipped with the RaycoWylie i4500 safe load indicator system for enhanced flexibility. Both models can be upgraded to the UNIC Cranes Europe variable outrigger/foot print system.
