INNOVATION
during active braking. This makes continuous work easier because the grapple is better controlled. The active braking is
proportional and is based on a solution whereby when the crane swings, the pressure in the slewing cylinder tubes is used and transferred to the brake, which is activated. This solution is automated, ergonomic and practical.
Hose routing protected in a new way At the crane nose, hydraulic pipes and hoses have been routed together in a protected location. An entirely new, protected hose routing has been designed at the front of the crane nose, passing through the link to the rotator. The cranes will also be available with two extra lines out to the crane nose, one of which is used for the active brake.
Service friendliness In order to further improve service friendliness, Cranab has introduced individual tensioning of hoses in the telescopic boom, powerful chains in the chain mountings, soft-sealing hydraulic couplings in line with ORFS
Functionality, ergonomics and service-friendliness are top of the list – Olsson
and produces increased stability.
Cranab has developed a brake solution that is based on known technology and is used in Cranab’s innovative subsidiary company, Vimek
standards, as well as lateral slide blocks on the intermediate boom that can be adjusted from outside.
Stable parking position There has also been considerable focus on the parking position, a trademark of Cranab. It is
important to have good operating characteristics when working, yet it is also important to have a good parking position during transport. The parking position means that the crane can be lowered fully so that it rests against the bottom of the loading area. This looks after both the crane and the bearings,
Satisfies the most stringent demands The new crane has been dimensioned to satisfy the European standard, which is based on the estimated number of load exchanges for a crane during its service life. “The requirement specification entails that we have to be at the highest level in the sector and this is permeating the entire development of the new crane generation,” Olsson said. “This is where we should be.” IFI
