Hiab, part of Cargotec, will launch three new models in its high capacity crane range at the BedrijfsautoRAI 2015 exhibition in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The new models are the HIAB X-HiPro 548, the HIAB X-HiPro 638, and the HIAB X-HiPro 658.
The models continue Hiab's drive to deliver major quality, performance and economy improvements across its new heavy lift range, "the Big Five", which includes also the HIAB X-HiPro 1058 and the HIAB X-HiPro 858. They are designed to lift heavy and bulky materials, with high speed and precision.
In designing the cranes, Hiab addressed market needs for products that were fast and easy to set up at the place of delivery, yet also robust and supremely safe to operate. Unique features include a chain-driven stabiliser span, hydraulically tilting stabiliser legs, a quick to install jib, and an easy-folding jib and hoist system.
Safety innovations include auxiliary legs that are fully integrated into the hydraulic and electronic systems, Variable Stability Limit + which automatically regulates lift capacity in relation to stability, and the Load Stability System which dampens uneven lifting movement.
