Active Crane Hire takes delivery of first Potain Hup cranes in Australia
Potain,tower cranes, constructionThe first two Potain Hup self-erecting cranes in Australia have been delivered to Active Crane Hire of NSW and immediately put to work on a residential development project in Ryde, a Sydney suburb. The cranes are assisting in the construction of a seven-story apartment building and were chosen for their compact footprints and versatile configuration options, which make them ideal for such urban, low-rise construction projects.
According to Hermann Buchberger, Managing Director of the Somersby-based company, the design of the Hup 32-27, and particularly its flexible mast system, will enable the company to use the crane in a variety of scenarios on the job site. The crane features an adjustable two-section mast with a third section within the second. This allows the third mast section to be telescoped out, boosting its working height to 27 m.
?The Hup fills a gap between large self-erecting cranes and small tower cranes. It is small and flexible enough to handle construction work for four-story to seven-story developments,? Buchberger explained. ?It?s more user-friendly than the alternatives and the commissioning is faster, which saves us time and money.?
