AC 250-1
Terex crane order from Schuch
Crane hire company Schuch extends its crane fleet with several new cranes from Terex. The order covers one mobile crane AC 250-1, one rough terrain crane A 600 from Terex-Bendini and two units of the truck mounted crane TC 40L. Stefan Schuch describes the advantages of the truck mounted cranes with the high mobility and the short term until they are ready to use.
Beside crane hire the Schuch group of companies offers abnormal loads, machinery moving as well as rental of service platforms. The fleet of cranes shall be increased in 2009 with a 1,000 tons telescopic crane and a Demag crawler crane CC 2800-1. Therefore the companies location in Sembach will be developed as a central station for heavy cranes.

New 250 tons telescopic crane by Terex
Terex-Demag is working on a new 250 tons telescopic crane. The outstanding characteristic of this new 6-axle crane ought to be the 80 m (262,46 ft.) telescopic boom. Referring to the preliminary data the AC 250-1 will reach a radius of 74 m (242.78 ft.) with this boom. Using 96,6 tons of counterweight the maximum load at this radius will be 1,6 tons (1,76 US-tons). With the additional 36 m (118,11 ft.) of main boom extension the crane will reach a maximum boom length of 114 m (374 ft.) The extension can be tilted from 0° to 40°. For indoor working a 2-sheaved runner is available.
Caused by the speed-dependent steering the Carrier offers a high manoeuvrability and stability. The compact carrier is less than 15 m (49,21 ft.) long. The crane control system is the innovative IC-1 first shown at Bauma 2001. The AC 250-1 will be powered by an 8-cylinder Daimler-Chrysler diesel engine in the carrier and a 6-cylinder Daimler-Chrysler diesel engine for the upper structure. The first official presentation of the crane will be at Bauma 2004 in Munich.
