Kobelco Construction Machinery Launches New Telescopic Boom Crawler Crane for Europe: TKE750G

• Kobelco Construction Machinery Co., Ltd. introduces the TKE750G, a new telescopic boom crawler crane with a 75 metric tonne lifting capacity, designed for the European market and compliant with EU Stage V emissions standards.

• The TKE750G incorporates the reliable and user-friendly design principles of the G series lattice boom crawler cranes, ensuring high performance, ease of operation, and commonality with other G series models.

• Designed for foundation work, the TKE750G features a robust 4-plate box structural boom, a larger engine, shorter boom length, higher winch capacity, and thicker wire ropes to outperform conventional telescopic crawlers.

• The crane's boom is optimized for stiffness and durability, suitable for compact job sites, and comes with a 22mm diameter wire rope and a 7.0 tonne rated line pull.

• The TKE750G is equipped with a powerful Mercedes-Benz E9H01 (Daimler OM936LA) engine, offering 254kW of power and enhanced hydraulic performance for foundation operations, while meeting the latest EU Stage V emissions regulations.

• Kobelco's KCROSS system is included with the TKE750G, providing remote monitoring of working conditions, location, and maintenance history for effective asset management.

• Availability of the TKE750G in Europe is set to begin from mid-2024, expanding Kobelco's presence in the European heavy machinery market.

For Europe, Kobelco Construction Machinery Co., Ltd. announced the launch of the TKE750G, its new telescopic boom crawler crane with a maximum lifting capacity of 75 metric tonnes.

The crane is equipped with an EU Stage V-compliant Mercedes-Benz E9H01 (Daimler OM936LA) engine and continues the same basic concept of the G series lattice boom crawler crane models. The TKE750G will be available from mid-2024 onwards.

Main features

1.Excellence in design

The machine concept is built on the same tried and tested technology as the G series lattice boom crawler crane models offering high reliability, great utilization, and simple ease of operation by design alongside excellent durability and commonality across all the G series models.

2. Durability for foundation works

These machines are mainly used for foundation works using vibration hammers, auger drilling, and hammer-grabs for all casing methods, etc. The KOBELCO telescopic boom crawler crane series includes a larger engine capacity, shorter boom length with higher winch capacity on standard main/auxiliary winches, and stronger, thicker wire ropes offering higher capability of foundation works in comparison with conventional telescopic crawlers on the market.

3. Purpose Built Durable Boom Design

The TKE750G is equipped with an exceptionally stiff 4-plate box structural boom that has been designed for foundation work. The boom’s light weight and durability have been achieved through optimizing materials, construction, and welding.

Thanks to the short boom length with a side deflection-resistant fully powered boom, the crane is capable of taking on any job, especially on compact job-sites. The crane is equipped with a 22mm diameter wire rope with a 7.0 tonne rated line pull. The main and auxiliary winches are positioned vertically at the rear end of the machine, helping maintain a compact main body.

4. EU Stage V compliant powerful engine

The TKE750G is powered by a Mercedes-Benz E9H01 (Daimler OM936LA) 7.697l water-cooled, in-line 6-cylinder direct injection and turbo-charged engine, with a rated power output of 254kW/2,000 min^-1, that is compliant with NRMM (Non-Road Mobile Machinery - Europe) EU Stage V regulations. This powerful engine offers higher hydraulic performance, especially important during foundation operation.

Kobelco’s KCROSS (Kobelco Crane Remote Observation Satellite System) is also retained on the TKE750G model.

Machines fitted with KCROSS transmit working conditions, locations, and maintenance history to provide owners with fact-based information for their asset management.
