A lifting height of truck cranes Tadano, Kobelco, Sumitomo, Kato, Hitachi, Komatsu and Unic is up to 200 meters. A carrying capacity of Japanese truck crane is from 3 tons to 1300 tons. Types of truck cranes can vary depending on their tasks, for example: rough terrain crane, crawler crane, all terrain crane. Japanese cranes have established themselves as reliable equipment even in the most severe conditions (including working conditions at low temperatures for many years). On-board computers of this technique are able to automatically diagnose all systems and identify problems of working process. In addition, the truck crane computer is able to determine the mass of the load with an accuracy of 1 kg and to suggest the optimum operating mode of the truck crane.
Japanese companies Airman and Denyo produce standard compressors with a capacity of 1.4 m3/min ([DPS-50SSB: 1220*685*755 mm; 310 kg), Fdps-1850SSB: 5980*2300*2400 mm; 10300 kg]).

The prices of buying through companies as Komatsu, Kato, Kobelco and Hitachi are mostly based on supply and demand on the market. When you purchase special equipment from Japan, please, pay attention to the auction sheet. Auction sheet confirms the condition of the special equipment.
The auction grade is the overall rating of the condition of the equipment. “S” means brand new, “R” is for repaired and “XX” stands for damaged equipment.
