Terex Cranes has restructured its entire business segment – equipment, support, finance and safety – to offer a complete package that delivers success for customers. We sell much more than cranes, and want to support the customers throughout all their purchasing and operating process: the life of a crane just starts when it leaves the factory. By continually asking the question “What if…?” Terex Cranes can bring to market innovative field solutions that are key to our customers’ businesses, and are introducing new products and product features that go the extra “tonne”, to the benefit of the customers.
Commonality of parts
What if your cranes had common DNA, by sharing components? Our all terrain crane families share a great number of common parts thanks to a common design concept.Common DNA leads to increased uptime, reduced parts inventory, and reduced complexity. All of which contribute to our customers’ bottom line.
New Superlift Boom Booster
What if you could increase your lifting capacity by up to 30%? Our Boom Booster Kit for the Superlift 3800 crawler crane provides ease of setup and efficient transport. We have rethought the way counterweights are handled on the jobsite and made it more efficient while fostering jobsite safety. It also provides the longest reach in its capacity. This is the perfect addition to the Superlift 3800 crawler crane to keep wind park construction running like clockwork.
IC-1 Plus control system
What if you could do more with less thanks to our IC-1 Plus? This new control system calculates lifting capacities for every position of the boom subject to the slewing angle of the superstructure. Due to this real time calculation the lifting capacity for a defined radius is no longer limited to the minimum value of a pre-calculated 360° lifting capacity. Also, lifting with asymmetric outrigger setup enables the crane to work in confined spaces without losing lifting capacity.
The IC-1 Plus control system features an enhanced visualization to provide the crane operator with additional information on capacity in relation to boom position. The colored visualization of the work area capacity results in improved safety.
Product Support
What if there was always someone there to keep you working? Terex Cranes now has a stronger support team standing behind the equipment to maintain peak crane performance. With more parts warehouses globally, increases in the number of service stations and technicians, additional 24/7 technical support, and customized on-site training programs, Terex Cranes better assists customers to preserve and protect their investment. And through Terex Financial Services, Terex Cranes offers innovative leasing and financing options to make cranes more affordable.
New products
What if we had listened to our customers, their wishes and pain points and based on this input developed new products and product features for our rough terrain and all terrain ranges. A new Rough Terrain crane model on display is built for global market needs, designed for efficient transport and offers extended service intervals to reduce operating costs. The exhibited 5-axle all terrain cranes illustrates Terex Cranes’ commitment to expand parts commonality, allowing customers to lower parts inventory cost, reduce product complexity and increase machine uptime.
