Terex unveils new tower crane
New crane boasts standard safety features and anti-collision systems
US-based Terex Corporation has launched its new CTL 650 F45 luffing jib tower crane, marking the company’s foray into a new generation of extra-large capacity class luffing jib tower cranes.
The new model tops out the existing Terex tower crane range of 14 CTL luffing jib models, offering a maximum capacity of 45 tonnes and equipped with a 65-metre jib. Terex used the letter ‘F’ in the product name as a tribute to Ferruccio Moritsch, a pioneer and innovator in the tower crane industry, particularly the luffing jib tower crane, who passed away in July last year.
The new crane boasts standard safety features such as jib walkways and handrails to provide a safe working environment for technicians during set-up and maintenance.
An anti-collision system is offered as an option to help the operator in planning and executing lifts, while avoiding collisions with other cranes or buildings. The CTL 650 F45 is also fitted with the Terex EVO 15 operator’s cab, which features five large windows for improved visibility.
