Y.K. Almoayyed and Sons’ Heavy Equipment division has handed over the first Tadano ATF400G-6 hydraulic all terrain crane sold in the Middle East, to Sayed Kadhem Al Durazi and Sons Group. The ceremony was witnessed by group Chairman Sayed Kadhem Al Durazi, Farouk Almoayyed, chairman of Y.K. Almoayyed and Sons, and Koichi Tadano, President and CEO of Tadano.
The crane has a rated maximum capacity to lift 400 tons at 2.7m, and a 5-section telescopic boom that extends from 15m to 60m. Its 49.6m fixed jib gives it an overall reach capacity of 109.6m. The crane superstructure is mounted on a special 12×8 all-wheel steerable chassis.
“We are proud to present the first ATF400G-6 Crane in the Middle East to Mr. Al Durazi, along with one 220-tonne and two 110-tonne all terrain cranes,” said Gopi Subramanian, General Manager of YKA’s Heavy Equipment Division.
“We, at Y.K. Almoayyed & Sons’ Heavy Equipment Division, have built a sufficient spare parts inventory and have carried thorough technical training courses on these specialty cranes to better support our clients; our technicians have been trained by engineers from Tadano’s factory over the past month on various operations of these highly advanced machines, from regular maintenance and fault finding to diagnosis and rectification of hydraulic, mechanical and electrical systems,” he said.
While taking delivery of the cranes, Sayed Hassan Al Durazi said: “We will be starting a new heavy-lift crane hire division in line with our expansion plans and we chose Tadano due to its reliability and our long association with YKA.”
“These specialty cranes will be used for erection, fabrication and shutdown maintenance works in large projects, including BAPCO, Tatweer, ASRY and ALBA,” he continued.
