Comansa presents its new 21LC1400 model: a new large-capacity Flat-Top crane

The tower crane manufacturer has announced the addition of a new model to its extensive range of large-capacity Flat-Top cranes: the new 21LC1400 Flat-top crane, a tower crane that will be available from September 2019.

The 21LC1400 Flat-top tower crane is expected to be used mainly in infrastructure and PPVC (Prefabricated Prefinished Volumetric Construction) projects, but this new model will also provide an enhanced performance in any other project which involves lifting very heavy loads, such as in shipyards, mining and other industrial sectors.

Like Comansa’s most recent developments in the 21LC family, the 21LC1400 Flat-top tower crane will feature a modular design counterjib to significantly reduce the operating radius in small sites. A new single and highly compact trolley-hook has also been designed for the 21LC1400 tower crane instead of Comansa’s single-double trolley system, standard in its other tower crane models, as this new crane will work mainly in projects in which maximum load capacity is required for almost every lift.

This tower crane model has an 85 metre jib as standard, extendable up to 90 metres and a new cage, designed as an extension of the range that includes the latest upgrades of cages previously available only for smaller tower cranes.

In addition, Comansa announces the addition of "Quick Set", exhibited in Bauma Munich: an electronic limitation system that reduces the set-up time of the tower cranes from 3 hours to 45 minutes. This technology will also reduce the number of staff required during this operation.

This new tower crane model comes with the new CUBE cab as standard. First exhibited at the end of 2017 it offers not only an innovative aesthetic design but also a completely renewed user experience; ample space and great comfort, productivity and new features, earning it the IF design award, one of the most prestigious international awards in the industrial sector.
