Seven new Grove cranes for MSG Krandienst
MSG Krandienst has expanded its fleet with seven Grove all-terrain cranes. The Kehl Germany-based company added the cranes to increase its flexibility in responding to customer needs. It took delivery of the first six of these cranes—four GMK3060s and two GMK4080-1s—from Manitowoc’s Wilhelmshaven plant. In April the company will add the seventh a Grove GMK5150L.
The GMK5150L which debuted at bauma 2016 is one of Grove’s newest models. With a load capacity of 150 t and a 60 m boom it is one of the most powerful and versatile five-axle cranes in its class. An extremely transportable crane the GMK5150L has a total width of 2.75 m allowing for easy maneuvering on most job sites. It also carries 44.5 t of counterweight and in its taxi configuration the crane carries 10.2 t of counterweight.
“The compact dimensions and the counterweight flexibility of the GMK5150L convinced us that it would be an ideal crane for our needs ” explained Alfred Jatz managing director at the company. "The crane complements our broad range of services and helps us to provide our customers with tailor-made solutions that fit their needs."
MSG Krandienst is a long-standing customer of Manitowoc. It purchased this new batch of cranes from Manitowoc dealer KranAgentur Werner.
