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.
