Grove GRT880 Crane to Make North American Debut at CONEXPO-CON/AGG

485

Manitowoc will feature one of its newest rough-terrain cranes at its booth for CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2017 – the Grove GRT880. It will be shown in the company’s booth in the Gold Lot stand G3348.

Paul Cutchall, product manager for rough-terrain cranes at Manitowoc, said the GRT880 marked a generational update in Grove’s rough-terrain crane range. “This new Grove model reflects everything we’ve learned in the last decade of crane design,” he said. “For example, customers will find the GRT880 more reliable than previous generations of cranes, thanks in part to the advances brought by our Product Verification Center (PVC). Each component has undergone extensive component validation and prototype testing and with that knowledge, we’ve been able to improve our rough-terrain cranes from the ground up.”

The 80-ton crane features a 135-ft. boom suited for the mining sector, equipment maintenance and infrastructure projects. With a full complement of boom extension and insert options, the crane has a reach of 200 ft. and maximum tip height of 223 ft. The boom is lighter and longer than its predecessor, but has the ability to lift heavier loads across its load chart.

  • Boom extension stowage system for the manual, offsettable jib option decreases erection and stowage time by 60%
  • Line pulls of 17,380 lbs. on both the main and the auxiliary hoists
  • Crane Control System provides a user-friendly interface
  • Updated full-vision cab tilts to 20° and features an ergonomic control arrangement including a tilting/telescoping steering column, electronic joysticks, and a jog dial for simple CCS menu navigation
  • ECO mode improves fuel efficiency and decreases wear and tear on the powertrain and hydraulic systems
