The big news at Fassi was this new F1800 crane. It is a further development of the F1500 that, for example by using stronger steels, landed in a higher class. The crane is being delivered in 3 base versions, a F1800AXP.24, .26 and the the version shown here, the .28 (meaning 4x, 6x or 8x hydraulically extending). These have outreaches of 11, 15,25 and 19,4 meter. The maximum capacity of the .24 crane is about 132 ton/mtr. The .28 version is available with the L816 jib, a 6x extending unit that gives the crane an outreach of 31,3 meter. The crane can lift a maximum load of 40 ton at about 3 meters distance.
Caution: data is preliminary, the testing hasn't completed yet, this is a prototype model |
An interesting truck is this Iveco Trakker 450 in 8x2*6 version. It is a tractor that is equiped with a Fassi F950AXP.28, an 8x extending crane that can lift 3,18 ton at 19,85 meters. With the L426 jib the outreach becomes 31,7 meters with a capacity of 735 kg. The interesting thing about this truck is that is has been equiped for recovery work. Therefore it has a winch at the foot of the crane. The chassis is equiped with twistlocks to mount a flatbed on, or maybe also to mount a demountable recovery arm on them.
