E-Crane is the original “equilibrium” or balanced hydraulic material handler. The key to the E-Crane’s efficiency is the parallelogram design linking the load to the moving counterweight. This ensures that the E-Crane remains in near perfect balance throughout its working range. Compared to conventional cranes which require as much as 80% of their available energy just to move the boom, stick, and grab, the E-Crane allows gravity to work for you instead of against you. The E-Crane offers best-in-class efficiency kWh per ton handled, reducing nominal consumption by 50% or more compared to traditional equipment. E-Crane product lines ranges lift capacity from 6 tons to 50 tons, outreach 86 ft / 26m to 150 ft / 45m, and customizable undercarriages for mobile or stationary applications
