Raimondi unveils new luffing jib crane at bauma 2019

?We decided the best presentation of the MRT573 was at ground level simply to bring people up close and personal with our newest product,? explained Eng. Domenico Ciano, Chief Operations Officer, Raimondi Cranes. ?As Raimondi?s largest-ever crane, it was important to us that our clients could experience the strength and impressive dimensions of the machine. The MRT573 may be mounted on a GR5H tower with pin connection or on a GR6L tower with bolt connection, the latter already on show as part of the fully-erected LR273. Visitors to our exhibit were granted access to the slewing platform, and were able to examine the electric panel?s architecture,? Ciano continued.

Raimondi?s newest luffer, the weight-optimised LR273, is ideal for clients who require a machine that is easy to install and boasts excellent load curve and big drum capacity. This is a superior option for customers that need an 18 tonne maximum capacity with a lengthy jib - clocking in at 60 m - but that aren?t seeking the highest maximum tip load. ?This luffer is an excellent compromise between maximum load capacity and maximum tip load. Its parking radius is a major asset to clients working in congested and highly built-up areas,? said Eng. Mauro Masetti, Chief Commercial Officer, Raimondi Cranes.

The LR273 in its standard configuration can work in two, three and four falls, while a single line extension will be offered as an optional add-on. The crane?s main hoist comes in two versions both with an optional emergency brake: 67 kW and 86 kW. A core characteristic, the luffing movement is smoothly-delivered via a 75kW motor, while end users will appreciate the control and personalisation of the inverter-driven slewing and counter-maneuver capability.

Raimondi?s luffing hydraulic LRH174 launched in 2018, is a 10 tonne hydraulic luffer with a tip load of 2,225 kg in Ultra-lift mode with two falls. The crane can also be utilised in one fall, which allows for a maximum capacity of five tonnes and a tip load of 2,475 kg. In addition to the cranes, Raimondi also showcased the SL20-TC Crane Lift and the Deluxe R16 Crane Cabin onsite.
