BG Lift’s line of Compact Crawler Cranes will arrive in North America this month, offering a new range of lifting solutions for confined jobsites.
The compact crawler cranes can lift 1,322 to 88,185 pounds and are available in both diesel or lithium-ion battery-electric configurations. The M Series models — the M060, M100, M250 and M400 — will be the first released.
Key features and specs include:
- M060 Mini Crawler Crane: Maximum load capacity of 705 pounds at 13.9 feet high, with the boom in the vertical position.
- M100 Mini Crawler Crane: Maximum load capacity of 1,124 pounds at 16.1 feet high, with the boom in the vertical position.
- M250 Compact Crawler Crane: Maximum load capacity of 2,756 pounds at 34.1 feet high, with the boom in the vertical position or a maximum load capacity of 1,433 pounds at 52.5 feet high, with the boom and jib in the vertical position.
- M400 Compact Crawler Crane: Maximum load capacity of 4,630 pounds at 48.6 feet high, with the boom in the vertical position or a maximum load capacity of 1,653 pounds at 69.2 feet high, with the boom and jib in the vertical position.
BG Lift, based in Italy, touts the M Series smooth and quick movements, ergonomic controls, automatic electronic stability control and choice of diesel or electric power units.
The cranes can be equipped with a range of operator baskets. Their low center of gravity simplifies movement on uneven terrain, while the wide ground clearance angle eases loading and unloading, the company says.
Hydraulic hoses and electrical systems have been routed inside the telescopic boom for enhanced durability.
The BG Connect telematics system allows operators to perform diagnostics, modify parameters, customize machine movements and update software remotely.
