Terex Debuts its Largest Luffing Jib Tower Crane

摘要

The Terex CTL 1600 luffing jib tower crane has two-and-a-half times the load moment and an approximately 32-foot-longer jib than the previous largest Terex luffing jib tower crane. Topping the existing Terex tower crane portfolio of eight CTL luffing jib models, the company says the extra-large CTL 1600 crane integrates extensive feedback from customers to combine lifting power with easy assembly, operator comfort, and job site safety. Offering a maximum lifting capacity of 72 tons, a maximum load moment of 1,600 metric tons, and equipped with an extra-long 246-foot jib, the crane offers high lifting capacities and reach as well as ease of transport. It has a maximum freestanding height of 291 feet on a concrete base and 288 feet on a chassis. The CTL 1600 tower crane uses HD 33 tower segments, which come equipped with pre-assembled tower platforms, aluminum ladders, multiple lifting points, and the new "Engage System." This new system includes all the required components for tower crane assembly already positioned and ready to be connected.
