Terex Crossover 8000 Expands Lifting Applications

摘要

According to Terex, the Crossover 8000, with a rated lift capacity of 80 tons, blends truck crane and boom crane designs to offer a 360-degree load radius that out lifts any other boom truck in North America. Featuring the same upper structure as the Terex T780 telescopic truck crane, the Crossover 8000 boom truck, says the company, offers almost identical load ratings throughout most lift situations, regardless if lifting from the front, rear or sides of the machine. The Crossover 8000 crane uses the Terex X-pattern outrigger design, which, says Terex, lowers the overall center of gravity and isolates the crane's upper structure from the truck chassis, reducing chassis torsion and extending chassis life. The three-position outrigger system also is designed to eliminate the need for a front stabilizer jack, thus decreasing overall length and weight of the crane, says the company.
