Comansa, Jaso, Liebherr, Manitowoc-Potain, Terex and Wolffkran have backed the objectives of the two-year-old standard, said CECE. They include increased safety, minimum requirements for noise emissions, ergonomic design and comfort for the crane user

Estimates of the costs and benefits are still under development but the final rule is scheduled for approval by July 2010.

German based tower crane specialist Wolff Kran will launch two new luffing jib tower cranes and a brand new tower system at Bauma.

Heavy transport and lifting company ALE based in the UK has been awarded its largest contract to date.

“Even though Terex will no longer be in the mining equipment business, we feel we have helped launch a superior product range upon which Bucyrus can build,” said Ron DeFeo, Terex chairman and chief executive officer

The crane will help the hotel builders reach the height that will make it the tallest building in Charlottetown, if not on the Island.

This system can detect the angle, weight of load lifted and ground radius of your crane. The crane is fitted with multiple sensors for each of the measured parameters which are then displayed in the operator’s cabin to keep them informed.

“For the last couple of months it is zero, totally dead,” David Semple, managing director of Manitowoc Cranes, said of the number of orders the company has received from Dubai.

The wind energy market continues to grow as does the capacity of the turbines, particularly offshore.

Manitowoc delivered the GTK to China Power Equipment Installation Engineering Co. Ltd. (CPIE) at the end of June 2009, accompanied by two of the company’s most experienced service personnel.
