THIRD 800 ToNNE SANY LATTICE BooM CRAWLER FoR TuTT BRYANT
Tutt Bryant Heavy Lift & Shift (TBHLS), Sany’s national distributor for crane products in Australia, took delivery of a third Sany SCC8000A, with the other two operating out of depots in Queensland and Western Australia. The 800 tonne capacity lattice boom crawler is now deployed to the
Sydney Gateway Project. The $2.6 billion project is designed to cut 40 minutes of traveling time for motorists coming from Sydney’s west and ease transport congestion around Sydney Airport. It will feature five steel bridge beams lifted by the new Sany. One of the first lifts the crane will perform weighs in at 197 tonnes with a 56-metre radius “I was working on a project in Townsville just a couple of months ago with a 400 tonne Sany, which is a 2014 model,” said Kyle, TBHLS’s supervisor. “The difference between the quality and the technology in that model and the 800 is massive. Sany’s technology on par with the products you get in a German or American crane.” The crane has a Cummins QSX15 engine and a maximum lifting moment of 12016 tonne-metres. It also has a completely automated load moment indicator, boom angle limit, and closed-circuit monitoring system. Tutt Bryant also recently imported its first battery electric crawler crane from Sany. The crane is already working on one of the many infrastructure projects currently underway along the East Coast of Australia.
NTF uSES NEW poTAIN ToWER CRANES
Abu Dhabi-headquartered crane supplier NFT Group, which has one of the world’s most extensive tower crane fleets and is the sole distributor for Potain cranes in the Middle East, has purchased two Potain tower cranes and immediately shipped both to a high-profile tourist destination under construction in Saudi Arabia –part of the vast NEOM development. One of the cranes is an MCT 1105, the largest topless tower crane from Potain, and the other is one of the previous largest models, an MCT 1005. The cranes are scheduled to work onsite for nine months on Sindalah, a luxury Red Sea Island resort, and part of Saudi Arabia’s NEOM project. Using large capacity tower cranes was the only option for the jobsite, owing to limited space and the fact there are no accessible routes for mobile or crawler cranes on the 840,000 m2 island. The timeframe for construction is tight, so a precast design is being used to speed up the build time. This means the cranes are placing concrete modules of up to 20-30 tonnes.
