Wheeled hydraulic crane

Independent dedicated provider of specialised heavy lifting equipment, Cooper Specialised Handling has secured the contract for what is understood to be the largest crane of its type in the UK and Ireland.

The Mantsinen 160M hydraulic crane is scheduled for delivery to Belfast Harbour, in late summer this year. The wheeled hydraulic crane has been specified to service vessels visiting Belfast, which range from 4000-15,000dwt and handle a variety of products, chiefly coal, scrap, grain and refuse-derived fuel. The unit will be supplied with the Mantsinen MC620 quick change coupling device so attachments can be interchanged in a matter of minutes.

The crane is equipped with a 17.5m curved boom and 15m stick offering 31m horizontal outreach and a capacity of in excess of 10t at 27m extension.
