COMANSA is expanding its range of luffing jib cranes with the launch of its first hydraulic model: the LCH300.
Boasting a maximum load capacity of 16 tonnes and reach of 60 metres, the crane will be showcased at bauma 2022.
Comansa explained the LCH300/16 t is available in various versions: embedded, supported on bases of six or eight metres, or moveable. The crane can be assembled with 2.5 x 2.5m tower sections. Its modular jib has a reach of 25 to 60 metres, with configurations every five metres. The manufacturer added that it has a minimum working radius of four metres and a minimum radius of nine metres when out of service.
The luffing moves the jib and counter jib jointly by a hydraulic cylinder at the cathead and jib hinge assembly. The hydraulic pump unit is located on a moveable platform in one piece.
From the cabin there is direct visibility of the lifting mechanism of between 50kW (standard) and 65kW (optional). Thanks to Effi-Plus technology, Comansa explained it is possible to increase the speed of the lifting mechanism without affecting consumption, which allows loading cycles to be reduced.
