Nordic Crane Takes Delivery of New CC 38.650-1 from Tadano
Choosing a Tadano CC 38.650-1 lattice boom crawler crane was a pretty easy decision for Scandinavian crane service provider Nordic Crane: “The CC 38.650-1 is an extremely well engineered and reliable crane that’s perfect for a huge range of jobs thanks to its incredible power and versatility. Whether you’re talking about industrial and infrastructure projects or erecting large wind turbines, it’s got us covered,” explains Managing Director Morton Heli-Hansen.
The crane proved him right in a roadbuilding project shortly after being handed over. The first task was lifting two road bridge sections in Lysaker, just outside the Norwegian capital, Oslo, and the crane never faltered during the job.
The bridge dimensions were:
- Length 54m ,
- Width 7m ,
- weight 135t
“We configured the CC 38.650-1 with a 60m SSL_2 and 39.5m Superlift mast configuration for this assignment. Meanwhile, the counterweight was 165t plus 50t, and there were 250t on the Superlift tray. This enabled the CC 38.650-1 to easily lift the loads with a gross weight of 147t at a radius of 42m and then slew them into place and accurately set them down at their intended position – exactly as we’d planned,” Morton Heli-Hansen reports.
