Suspended ballast - for higher flexibility
Using a suspended ballast systems makes your crawler crane much for flexible. Technically quite easy to explain, the suspended counterweight tray features a hydraulically telescoping guidance to increase the radius of the counterweight even under load. This increases the load capacity of the crane.
With a small radius the derrick ballast will adjust perfectly to a constricted working environment. If there is adequate space available, on the other hand, the increased radius enables ballast weights to be saved.
If you need to travel longer distances with the load on the hook, the ballast wagon is an option to look into.
