Xuzhou Heavy Machinery introduces 1000t crane with lattice jib

December 13, 2012

    Recently, Xuzhou Heavy Machinery Co., Ltd. has broken the traditional crane design concept to introduce the industry’s first 1000t crane with lattice jib--XCL 800 wheeled crane with lattice jib, pioneering the new direction of industrial product innovation and technical innovation.
   XCL800 combines the mobility of all-terrain crane and Crawler Crane with lattice jib, and integrates XCMG’s mature all-terrain resources and lattice jib resources. The optimal combination and innovative mode have created a new crane that has ultra strong capabilities of transit hoisting, is easy to assemble and disassemble, and is superior in hoisting. The new crane has filled a domestic gap.
    The model was developed by XCMG after elaborate market surveys, analyses and demonstrations. Through team innovation, several key technologies were conquered and mastered, of which new eight-axis heavy-duty chassis, ultra-large-span X-shaped leg structure, computational simulation of complex jib system, assembly, disassembly and transition, and multi-condition power self-adaption have been up to leading international standards. With a maximum speed of 75km/h and a maximum climbing capacity of 35 percent, eight-axis all-terrain chassis boasts outstanding drive performance. Besides, the model has achieved great breakthrough in assembly and disassembly, transport and transition convenience. The application of technologies like hydraulic powering, encasement transport and special transition condition design can boost operating efficiency and save transport costs enormously.
    XCL800’s introduction marks a new step in the independent innovation and development of Chinese cranes as well as a critical step of Xuzhou Heavy Machinery in the process of technical innovation. From auto crane, Crawler Crane, all-terrain crane, Tower Crane, special crane to wheeled crane with lattice jib, the company is moving step by step on the road of independent innovation.
